Cute little book (94 pages) with a few good essays, art work, and quotes. As eye candy and a little snack it was great. ( ) This was an odd assortment of essays about books, a few poems, and mostly images of books or art appreciating books. It didn't take much time to read at all (which is ironic, given that one of the essays is about slow-reading - I'm a speed-reader, okay?) Honestly, I get more pleasure out of scrolling through my book-related page on Pinterest. A small little book. 4 eassays/blog posts on reading, and the rest is book-related pictures. Pretty average eassays - the best is Gretchen Rubin's "13 Tips for Getting More Reading Done". The pictures didn't do anything for me - not particularly inspiring or interesting. All in all an underwhelming experience - I have seen and read many other books on the "book-lover" theme that were better. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
For anyone who'd rather be reading than doing just about anything else, this book is the ultimate must-have. In this visual ode to all things bookish, readers will get lost in page after page of beautiful contemporary art, photography, and illustrations depicting the pleasures of books. Artwork from the likes of Jane Mount, Lisa Congdon, Julia Rothman, and Sophie Blackall is interwoven with text from essayist Maura Kelly, bestselling author Gretchen Rubin, and award-winning author and independent bookstore owner Ann Patchett. Rounded out with poems, quotations, and aphorisms celebrating the joys of reading, this lovingly curated compendium is a love letter to all things literary, and the perfect gift for bookworms everywhere.
