Review:
Given that I'm a bookworm, there's no way I wasn't going to enjoy
this book. There's simple pages of book-related moments and
statements and essentials and preferences. There's definitely a lot
to relate to here.
I will admit this didn't hit me as much as I expected; it wasn't
exciting or hugely funny, and I think I expected a bit more, maybe
because of the other books I've read recently that influenced that.
It's a quieter book, though, which makes sense given the subject. I think I just needed to go in with different expectations.
I'd definitely recommend it for other book-lovers, and I'm still going
to pick up her other collection.
