Comment on Beware your assumptions by The Longest Chapter

I also hear “I Am Not Sidney Poitier” is worth checking out. I believe it’s Everett’s novel that came before this one. If you read his books, let me know what you think.

I’ve heard so much about this author–he was a featured speaker at U of L’s 20th century conference–can’t wait to read this!

There are, indeed, many kindred spirits reading for pleasure, and these independent bookstores in Brooklyn were full of them. I could tell by the joy in their conversations I overheard, about a new book they were looking for, or a favorite author.

Here’s wishing you continued inspiration to read for pleasure, giving yourself the gift of reading time now and into 2012. As you’re probably discovering, a little bit of reading for pleasure each day goes a long way in filling the soul.

As I lately have been in the throes of Christmas Shopping for everyone else but myself, I found this reading a Very nice break from selflessness. I love reading and wish I had had more time to read for pleasure over the years.

It’s so nice to know there really are other kindred spirits who like to read too. It has inspired me to read for pleasure more lately, as I have re-started doing again this past year.

It was a great vacation! Thanks, George, and good to see you at the Aldus holiday party. Some year, I need to get myself at the same table as you and Linda.

Now THAT’s what I call a good vacation, and good writing about that adventure. Thanks, Kassie! George

You may need to order it via the publisher — neither Amazon nor B&N seem to have it online at the moment, although Amazon directs to other sellers. It’s a small press — Levellers — and if you click on the book image, it will take you to their online store.

Something in me wants to mention “Stoner” as I reply to you about this book, although the two books are not similar in any way. Nevertheless, I think you’ll know what I mean when you read these stories.

All best,
Kassie

Did you yet see it glow in the dark? I’m also wondering if the book is a first edition. It has sold fairly well — the edition I have is in its third printing.
