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...

Short, cute and entertaining, though it did make me wonder about people...

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...

As much as I may like books, the (very romantcised) idea of working in a bookshop has never appealed to me, ... because the thought (based on my memory) of having to deal with the general public is enough to cure any illusion one may have about being surrounded by books and readers all day. And wh...

Weird Things Customers Say in Bookstores by Jen Campbell is very reminiscent of I Work in a Public Library which I reviewed early last year. Both books include true stories of interactions and incidents that occurred in places which feature books as the main attraction. Jen's book talks about people...

3,5 stars.Funny book that had me laughing a lot. However, I don't recommend reading it in only in one day, as I got a bit too tired of all the jokes by the time I reached the end of the book.It made me wonder if some people leave their brains at home before they leavin in the mornings.

Oh man, this was both horrible and amazing to read. Can you believe the stupidity of the human race? Some of these things really made me lose my faith in humanity. That said, it was also very funny and entertaining to read and to be very honest, it always makes me feel better knowing that I'm appare...

I bought this book as a gift for my mother. Of course I had to read it myself, too. This book is a fun, quick read. I loved so much while reading it. It is crazy how ridiculous (or just simply stupid) people can be. There is not much I can say since this book is really short. I can, however, highly ...

This is one of those books I would read a few pages from every time I saw it in a bookstore. I was about halfway. But then it was no longer necessary since my sister gave me this little book for my birthday last month. It's a quick funny read. Not ROFL funny, and some have the feeling that they we...

Suffice it to say, the title of this book says it all. I found it to be a very entertaining book, part of which I read on the subway today, suppressing a chuckle every now and then so as not to draw undue attention to myself from fellow riders. I'd like to cite two excerpts from the book which made ...
