This week's Top Ten Tuesday on The Broke and the Bookish is: Top Ten Books for Readers Who Like Books About Reading. Okay, so obviously readers like books, but do they like reading about books and reading? I do. I love finding out how others approach my favorite pastime, and hearing how their relationship with the world of literature developed. To me, this is the best kind of love story because it nearly always has a happy ending.
Some of my faves:
The Uncommon Reader - Alan BennettQ's Legacy and 84, Charing Cross Road - Helene Hanff
Ex Libris - Anne FadimanThe Storied Life of A.J. Fikry - Gabrielle Zevin Matilda - Roald Dahl
A few I'm looking forward to reading:
What We See When We Read - Peter Mendelsund
Leave Me Alone, I'm Reading - Maureen CorriganShelf Life: Stories By the Book - Gary Paulsen
The Novel Cure: An A-Z of Literary Remedies - Ella Berthoud & Susan ElderkinWhy I Read - Wendy Lesser
There are a lot more, but these are the ones the top my list of favourites and my TBR! I'm always looking for more though, so if you know of any great books about readers, share in the comments!
