For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-CycleI actually came across this book in a librarian group on Facebook (I am working toward my master's in library sciences) and thought it looked interesting.A fun, quick read that is filled with oddity, hilarity, and bookish humor. It was a fun experience...
I was looking for something to read last night after finishing Notes from a Public Typewriter and found this in my stacks. I have no recollection of buying it. In fact, not only was I prepared to swear I didn't have it, I actually did say, not 48 hours ago, that I didn't have a copy. Excellent or...
