Grant Snider: I Will Judge You By Your Bookshelf

 Hi everyone

I Will Judge You By Your Bookshelf by Grant Snider is a comicbook about being a reader, reading, books and literature. This was a gift from my husband.

"A look at the culture and fanaticism of book lovers, from the beloved New York Times illustrator and creator of Incidental Comics.
It’s no secret, but we are judged by our bookshelves. We learn to read at an early age, and as we grow older we shed our beloved books for new ones. But some of us surround ourselves with books. We collect them, decorate with them, are inspired by them, and treat our books as sacred objects. 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. I Will Judge You by Your Bookshelf is the perfect gift for bookworms of all ages."

This was ok. It was never laugh-out-loud, but it did make me smirk and smile. Some things were recognizable, others were farfetched. Nothing really stood out to me.

Happy reading.
Helena
