A review by bibliotequeish
For the Love of Books: Stories of Literary Lives, Banned Books, Author Feuds, Extraordinary Characters, and More by Graham Tarrant

5.0

This was a really fun book.
Pages of fun facts about your favorite authors, favorite books and interesting bits of knowledge.

For example -
Words coined by authors such as Lewis Carroll's "chortle" or Dr. Seuss's "nerd"

And first draft book titles -
Imagine reading about Elizabeth Bennet in Jane Austens "First Impressions"
Or about lavish Jay Gatsby in F.Scott Fitzgerald's "Incident at West Egg"

The author also gives you reading recommendations - for example
the "Book of the month"
"Doctor January" - By Rhoda Baxter all the way to "A week In December" - By Sebastian Faulks.

This truly is a book for book lovers.
