d_redguy, gmarkstephens and I went to an outdoor festival type thing today. We stopped in at Brueggar’s Bagels for lunch and found a book. The book had labels on it for this website. How cool! The book is cute, and pretty funny- in that pseudo British kind of way. (It’s called The Clothes They Stood Up In And The Lady In The Van by Alan Bennett, for those interested.)
The website is great! Especially if you have too many books at your house. Just thought I’d pass it along.
Francesca, no insult intended. I just assumed (I know, I know…) from the NY publisher that he was an American author. Couldn’t find a bio on him, but then, the book is missing a few pages in the front. Thanks for the info, though. I won’t sound like an ass the next time I talk about it!
No, I didn’t expect you per se, Biblio, but I’m glad you liked the site. I think it’s a great damn idea to recycle all your old books like that.
I wanted to add that, if you decide to participate, the additional label links are great. Much easier to print some out on paper and tape 'em on than to buy the “package” they offer.
