Perfect for any bibliophile and terrifically funny. --Library Journal, starred Review A librarian delivers a charming epistolary volume that begs to be read with pencil in hand.... A smart, funny, forthright librarian in book form. --Kirkus Dear Dear Fahrenheit 451, thanks for the lovely reminder of the ways we find ourselves in books. --Booklist, starred review The truest testament to the quality of Dear Fahrenheit 451...is that my enjoyment of it was, in the end, great enough to outweigh my fury that someone other than me had written it....She has a unique ability to capture the thoughts and feelings of book lovers, both professional and otherwise, on the page. --NPR Readers (and librarians especially) will appreciate the sly stabs or 'roasting' that the author makes to point out fine and not-so-fine moments of key books that she is contemplating removing from her shelf. She weaves in stories from her life inside a library (which is fodder for chuckles in itself). Perfect for fans of Jenny Lawson. --LibraryReads, The top ten books published this month that librarians across the country love Hard to put down....Dear Fahrenheit 451 is a delightful gem for readers who experience stories as friends, not just words on a page. --Shelf Awareness
