People ask me all the times, "What made you decide to write this novel?"
But what I want to ask THEM is, "What made you decide to read it?"
So I really enjoyed eavesdropping as
this bookblogger mused about why she might read The Secrets of Mary Bowser (instead of Jeffrey Eugenides'
The Marriage Plot or Tim O'Brien's
The Things They Carried).
Then I glanced around my bookshelves and wondered what anyone would think of me, if all they had to go on was all the books I own.
