We learn to read at an early age, and as years pass some of us shed our old books for new ones. But, also, some of us surround ourselves with books, unwilling to let them go. We collect them, decorate with them, pile them up, hoard them, are inspired by them, and treat them almost like sacred objects. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this lighthearted collection of one- and two-page comics, writer-artist Grant Snider explores bookishness in all its forms, and the love of writing and reading, building on the beloved literary comics featured on his website, Incidental Comics. His words and art will strike a chord with anyone who has to move books when you have a guest over or can't place your coffee mug down on your coffee table because it is covered with novels, history, memoirs, classics, and self-help.
