Introducing Bookworm Extraordinaire’s
Book Hunting Adventures
This
new feature on BWE is inspired by R.S. Garnett’s 1931 Some Book-Hunting Adventures in
which he relates his own tales of scouring the shops for that perfect
find. As I related in my review of it, I found this book quite by
chance as I was in the stacks of my library in August. As I read it
the idea of this series began to worm its way into my brain. Garnett
had some pretty interesting tales about how he came into his books
and the more I thought about I realized that I get my books in some
strange places. Everywhere from thrift stores to a sketchy old man
under a bridge my books have come to me in odd ways. BWE’s Book
Hunting Adventures is going to be a new series in which I share my
stories with my readers. I hope my Book Hunting Adventures amuse and
inspire you as much as Garnett’s did me.
