Ever find yourself mainlining coffee at work in an effort to stay awake after a late night with a page-turner you just couldn't put down? Does the thought of being stuck on a train/plane/bus without a book fill you with more existential angst than a Camus novel? Were you too traumatized to leave your bed for days after finishing The Time Traveler's Wife? If any of these scenarios sound familiar, then chances are you're a book lover, but what kind of bibliophile are you? Perhaps you're The Cryer, who doesn't enjoy a story until at least a pint of real tears have been shed. Or maybe you're The Adulterer, who struggles to commit and never has less than four books on the go, or The Abuser, whose "treat 'em mean" attitude leads to turned-down corners, broken spines, and water-damaged pages. With over 20 hilarious bookworm profiles, you're sure to spot a good few character traits that any member of the literati will recognize. While we won't claim it's as funny as a Philip Roth novel, So You Think You're a Bookworm? will definitely raise a smile or two.… (meer)

So I found the illustrations in this book to be fun, and some parts of it were quite witty, but it is definitely more...sarcastic humor than I tend to go for in general. I think I would have been disappointed had I paid full MSRP for it. Also, a PSA to the author, editor, proofreader, and publisher (and anyone else who might be wondering)...the correct phrase is rein it in, not the egregious and utterly nonsensical "reign it in" used in this book.

This was okay. It was an interesting premise, and parts of it were funny. Parts of it felt a bit mean-spirited, though. The reading experience was a peculiar mix of feeling amused and feeling judged. If you’re looking for a quick read filled with bright pictures and allusions to popular books, you might enjoy this. But if you’re looking for something that celebrates all readers, or that spreads the joy of books, then you may want to look elsewhere. There are plenty of other book-themed books with more substance. ( )

Rather silly checkout counter book with remarkably little to amuse me. Eh.
