More Weird Things Customers Say In Bookshops (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
I absolutely loved it. There were a few references that I didn't get, but there were also some conversations that made me giggle out loud. I collected a few to put with this review, scroll down for those. Those aren't the only ones that made me laugh out loud, just a few. This book would be really good for on the toilet or when you have just a few minutes to spare. As there is no story line, you can just pick it up when- and where ever you like. As Neil Gaiman said: "So funny, so sad... Read it and sigh".This review and many more on blookersam.wordpress.com Un libro que trata sobre lo que dicen las personas en las librerías.
