After working in a bookstore and running this blog for over a year, I HAVE DISCOVERED that people in general actually have no idea about books!? The classic English teacher hands out a reading assignment to kids that have no clue what to do much less where to start rings true to more than just the parent... It seems that whichever country you happen to be in, people are paralyzed when faced with the vast world of literature!
And so, your questions, suggestions and other like arrangement of words in the form of an email are welcome. Please address to
I will post the letters here with comments and answers that are entertaining if not useful. All presents, virtual and solid, are welcome though this is a not-really-for-profit(but-never-say-no) organization. Yeah...
HA! Mr A didn't think I was so transparent. Please forgive me for being odvious... you know how it is... Once people start talking - the word gets around. ;)

I love O. Pamuk! That is him, isn't it? Author of SNOW among other wonderful books? I read because I love the smell of paper and ink.
I like your blog lots of interesting information without it being runover by ads. This is my first visit. I like this quote.
