Everyone's favourite "old biddy from Gabriola Island," Naomi Beth Wakan, captures a year of her obsessive reading in her new collection Book Ends: A year between the covers. This lively conversation covers almost every genre -- fiction, essays, poetry, biography, science and the arts -- and Naomi's tart observations on both books and authors frees readers to consider what they actually enjoy reading, rather than what they have been told is good. Naomi's compulsive reading rubs off on the reader, as they are encouraged to become more aware and involved in their own reading selection. Book Ends is a must for any book club member or bibliophile.--amazon.com.
