Friday Bookish Buzz Is a Book Snob

That dog looks like a total book snob. “I look over my glasses at you in disdain.” Ha!

So all is calm on the blog this week. My inbox is a mess though. I need to do some cleaning. I also hope to get some reading done this weekend. How about you?

What is up in the book world? Let’s take a look.

*Canadian couple married in a bookstore.

*Nathan Fillion likes books.

*Want to go camping? Maybe you should bring along the book tent.

*The news that shocked the world: erotic Jane Eyre fan fic to be published. I can’t believe I put those words together on the page. Look, I’m sure Jane and Mr R rocked the Casbah as soon as they said “I do", but do we really need to read about it?

*Preserving Elizabeth Gaskells’ house.

*Want a lot of people to buy your book? Stick a middle initial in a famous author’s name and call it your own.

*Patrick Ness wins the Carnegie Medal.

*The Literary Press Group of Canada get their money back.

*Etsy Love: From House of Ismay, a pretty To Kill a Mockingbird brooch.

Have a good one! And for all the Dads out there, I hope you have a relaxing Sunday.
