The World’s Smallest Book Shop, near Kinmount, Ontario.
Went here while driving home from a friend’s cottage today. It’s self serve, open 24 hours and all books are $3. The books on the stool are the ones I bought, except instead of The Gathering I ended up getting Alias Grace.

Currently Reading: My Last Three Library Books before China!

The Book of Men: Poems by Dorianne Laux
The End of Everything by Megan Abbott
No Questions Asked: The Secret Life of Women in the Mob by Clare Longrigg

I am going to miss my local library so much when I go to China. It was named Library of the Year for good reason!

Day 3: A Book That Makes You Laugh Out Loud
A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket. You wouldn’t think that these books would be funny, but at times they are hilarious.

Book Blogs That Only Post From Credible Sources

Whether that means linking to flickr or deviantart or only posting their own pictures, as far as I know these blogs never use weheartit or post anything uncredited. I’m sure I missed a lot, but here’s some.

List of Book Blogs 2.0

Last week I made a list of book blogs on tumblr. You can see the list here.

It was not working temporarily, but it’s back and I added a fair bit to it. Since I’ve gotten a few requests to see it again, I thought I’d repost it. This list is very short compared to all the blogs that mainly focus on books, so if you are not on the list and should be write in my ask. If you ever want to look at this and can’t find it, there’s a link in my FAQ.

So many books scare me, but the most recent one was The Name of the Star by Maureen Johnson. Ghosts freak me out.
