Not only do I love these, but his "buy it from an independent bookstore" led me to discover that my local independent bookstore has an online store, which means I can now hit them on the spur of the moment rather than Amazon.

I definitely work for philistines, so I scrolled down as an act of rebellion.
Love Terry Border's work, which I discovered on the blue, and am glad to be reminded of it again. Very witty and charming.

Those Marsha Tosk things look like something at a church craft show.
