I don’t know how this one didn’t get more favorable reviews. Being a booklover (like presumably everyone on GR) I found this book to be a delight of random information pertaining to all aspects of literary world. Aside from featuring great many stories that prove once again just how much stranger truth is than fiction, this book was just really fun to read. Literary feuds, quirky factoids behind your favorite books and authors, tons of trivia…even if you’re fairly knowledgeable about the behind the scenes sort of information, I bet you’ll still be able to find something new within these pages. The book is categorized into sections and all entries are succinct and told in a cheery lighthearted manner. In that way it’s much more of a trivia book than a proper encyclopedic literature’s who, what and why sort of book, but then again it’s 224 pages, what did you expect. Definitely more of a cream off the top than the drags at the bottom of the cup, but very entertaining at what it does. I enjoyed it thoroughly, got to revisit some known facts and learn some new ones and really all learning should be this much fun. I can’t imagine a booklover who wouldn’t like this. Recommended. Thanks Netgalley.

This was a light, entertaining read about books and writers in general with many fun facts and short chapters.
I can recommend this to any book lover or if you're looking for more books to read as well. The author is giving many lists of books under different topics.

Thank you Netgalley for providing me with a copy.

What's not to love about a book about books! Fun, informative and a plain good read.

Thanks to ,publisher and Netgalley for the chance to read this book. While I got the book for free,it had no bearing on the rating I gave it.

A really interesting read for book worms. I enjoyed every bit of this book. It was warmly written and factual

I enjoy reading about books and authors and found this book very interesting. I particularly enjoyed the "It's A Fact" sections. There were authors I did not know but many more I am familiar with. I now have many more books on my TBR list thanks to this book.

This book is an absolute must for every reader in the world. It's interesting, funny and just the best for every book lover.

Questo é un must per ogni amante dei libri che si rispetti! È interessante, divertente e raccoglie le migliori informazioni sui libri e gli autori piú famosi del mondo (o meno).

THANKS NETGALLEY FOR THE PREVIEW!
