Bibliophile

First off, this book is beautiful. It's a joy to turn the pages and see what's on the next page. Second, there are so many books mentioned that if you can't find at least one you want to read, then you don't want to read. There are also other cute things interspersed in, like quizzes, trivia and bits about bookstores and libraries around the globe. This is definitely a book I will refer back to.

I love this book so much that I'd give it ten stars out of five, if I could.

This book was written just for me, I think.

It's everything book-ish. It's good books, of course, by list. It's wonderful bookstores. It's great libraries. It's authors and illustrators.

And it's all hand-drawn, with lovely pictures of books and bookshops and libraries and authors.

I love this book. I wish I could loan you my copy, but I love it too much to share it. You must get your own copy.

I want to find a goodreads list of all the books Bibliophile mentions as I believe I have read many of them, and have now added quite a few mentioned.

На удивление толстая книга и рассказывает о большом количестве других книг. Но все описания скорее поверхностные, поэтому сложно судить об этих книгах. Довольно много литературы актуальной для черных, но не для нас, потому что их проблемы от нас далеки. Из интересного: есть иллюстрации книжных магазинов и комнат, где работали известные писатели. Темы, которые затрагивают книги самые разные. Если вас не смущает, что это в основном американская литература, то можно ознакомиться.

This was a very enjoyable read. The art work was so fun and good. I do love a good book about books, bookish people and things. I have gotten some new books added to the TBR thanks to this book. I'm going to branch out some more with my book genres thanks to this book too. To the author, this felt like a love letter to the books, authors, and book world. Thanks for writing this.

My friend Kearah got this book for Christmas and was showing it to me a few months back - because it contained within it a quiz about books that reminded her of me. A few days later I went and got my own copy, and would look at a few pages before falling asleep at night. Mount's stated goal was to make one's TBR explode, and I can say I've added quite a few books to mine because of this one! She is very talented at what she does. My favorite things (other than the few quizzes within the pages) were the hand-drawn book stacks for all different subjects, and the mini portrait sketches of some of the authors and illustrators of those books. There were also things about favorite libraries and bookstores, recommendations by bookish people, and blurbs about cover design, and the whole thing was a delight.
