This was a great but slow read for me. Compiled with lots of information on books, I found myself reading with pen and paper at my side so I could take notes on some of the yummy books mentioned. The book is made up of chapters on different subjects. You have banned books, crime writers, author feuds and much more. Highly recommended for the book lover out there. Take time to savor each page.
