Literacy and Longing in L.A.


What a surprisingly great book. I picked this up at the library because it was about a woman who loved to read. I wasn't expecting much, but it turned out to be a great story.
Dora is a recently single again living in an ocean side apartment. She goes on book buying and reading binges whenever something in her life isn't going well. What's wrong with that??
She falls for a bookstore employee and gets tangled up in his life and in the end...well I'm not going to tell you what she DOES to her books. It's too awful to mention.
Rating: 4.5/5
