A great compendium...I've discovered many authors I wouldn't otherwise have known. Highly recommend!

I thoroughly enjoyed the short essays about many of my favorite authors and I've even found some new to me authors to add to my TBR list. I especially enjoyed the lists of book recommendations from the authors. It was interesting to see which books authors consider must reads.
This book is an excellent resource for any avid reader.

I am enjoying reading this book, a little at a time. It is a great way to be introduced to authors and their works, and I have found many new leads I am anxious to explore.
