Calling All Bookworms!

Doing a google search, I ran across Homegirl Quel in Austin's blog - it's a fashion and life blog, so, if that's your thing then by all means click the link.  Otherwise, keep reading (or not)!

A post from May 2010 is called  "Wear a book.  Look Awesome! Do Good."

F. Scott Fitzgerald's Tales of the Jazz Age.  Since I'm an old art deco-phile, it immediately sucked me in!  He's got Alabama connections, of course. Zelda was from Montgomery.
Here's "A Streetcar Named Desire" (Tennessee Williams):
For Harper Lee fans:
Not Southern, but just plain cool.
For Jane Austen fans
It'd be great if they had some Faulkner, Welty or Wright, although the selection they have is a lot of fun regardless.

More on the Cleveland trip to come................

It would be cool to do something like this locally and feature some southern writers! Could still donate proceeds to the same cause...
