Some new additions to the blogroll

The Midnight Bell,  The Bibliothecary and The Conceit.  Spot the theme?  'The' - nope.  Books - yes.  One to watch - One Guy's Moleskine Notebook.  And by the way, I thought those Moleskine things were indestructible.  Mine's looking pretty disreputable these days.  But there again I have tiny, tiny handwriting so it takes me a long time to get through them.  You have no idea how boring it was, in the pre-chip and pin era, to have the same conversation in every shop.  'Wow, your writing is small', 'yes, impossible to forge'.  But there again, I used this line on a junior lawyer I had to take out for lunch once and he promptly did an impeccable copy of my signature.  He's no longer with the firm.  Probably found a more lucrative outlet for his talents!

Thanks for the link. I have to tell you how much I've enjoyed your blog since discovering it a few weeks ago. I read it every day.

Prosit,

I thought the moleskine was formidable too until I dropped one of mine into the pond while I was traveling. I had to borrow a blowdryer to dry page by page!

Thanks so much for the link. I'm truly flattered to be mentioned here. Reading Book World becomes a dily ritual for me.
