Short Recommendation.

www.akindoflibrary.blogspot.com



I have no idea how I haven't posted about Sloane Crosley after reading her first book of essays, I Was Told There'd Be Cake a few years ago. But since I made a hard cover purchase the day her second book was released (I can count all previous hard cover purchases on one hand...and I buy a lot of books), I realized it's high time that I publicly recommend her highly amusing essays to the 5 people who read this blog.  Crosley's essays resonate with me as she grew up in the suburbs, moved to New York and is about my age, but I remain convinced that they are pretty funny for almost anyone.


Anyway, nothing too deep, but if you are looking for an entertaining summer read, either of these two would work.

I'm saving up to get these books. I just saw this at my local Border's bookstore on their shelf marked: "Staff Favorites" :)
