I Am a Famous Book Critic

Dear Bee Wilson,

Thank you so much for letting my library lend me a free kindle edition of your latest book to review. I hope this review will make you almost as famous as I am.

First things first, the cover:


Since I read this on my kindle, I didn't even really see the cover. So, my off-the-cuff first impression is: classy. Due to my OCD, however, I would always be licking my finger and trying to pick those errant salt granules off of the cover. Something to think about if you are trying to market this as a coffee-table book to people with mental disorders.

Here is another criticism about the kindle edition: since I couldn't leaf through the pages, I was SHOCKED and DISMAYED when I got to the end of Chapter 8 and I realized that THE BOOK WAS OVER. My kindle only said 80% done; the rest were just notes (kudos on doing all that research and stuff).

In conclusion, I heart-ed your book. It kind of reminded me of this other trendy history book written by a Brit that I also loved.
