A librarian's laugh-out-loud funny, deeply moving collection of love letters and break-up notes to the books in her life.
Annie Spence has spent the last decade as a librarian at public libraries in the Midwest. She lives in Detroit with her husband and son. Dear Fahrenheit 451 is her first book.
A winsome volume'
*New York Times Book Review*
Spence's love for an impressive variety of works is deep and true;
her guilty pleasures are sweet; her frustration with and scorn for
others are outright hilarious. She's that outspoken friend who
knows what you'll like to read, but won't judge you if that's no
more high-brow than pulp fiction.'
*Irish Times*
A delightful read'
*Stylist*
On the totally reasonable premise that we have relationships with
books that feel like relationships with people, US librarian Spence
penned this wonderfully witty and wise collection of letters to
books she has cared for in the line of duty.'
*The Bookseller*
A librarian delivers a charming epistolary volume that begs to be
read with pencil in hand.'
*Kirkus Review*
An easy gift for a bookish friend, but you'll want to buy a second
copy for yourself.'
*Times Union*
Dear Fahrenheit 451 is hilarious, sweet, gross at times, but most
of it is 'amazeballs'.'
*Times-News*
