This "celebration of the world of books" (
Kirkus
) from
New York Times
bestselling author James Patterson explores the inner lives of the people who kindle our passion for reading.
"When the pandemic started, Patterson launched a movement, #SaveIndieBookstores [and] pledged half a million dollars, and, with the support of the American Booksellers Association and the Book Industry Charitable Foundation, the campaign ended up raising $1,239,595 from more than eighteen hundred donors...Somehow, the bookstore outlived the pandemic. Why?
The Secret Lives of Booksellers and Librarians
, compiled by James Patterson and Matt Eversmann, suggests a few reasons." -
New Yorker
To be a bookseller or librarian...
You have to play detective.
Be a treasure hunter. A matchmaker. An advocate. A visionary.
A person who creates "book joy" by pulling a book from a shelf, handing it to someone and saying, "You've got to read this. You're going to love it."
