"Betsy Burton is the founder and owner of an independent bookstore in SLC called The King's English. She mixes stories of her life as a bookseller and business owner with book recommendations and a passionate defense of independent bookstores. My favorite chapter was on fiction and all the wonderful authors the store has hosted over the years. She includes chapters on doing business in a Mormon majority area, poetry, mysteries (a specialty of their store), children's literature, and banned books. All in all, a fun read."
"Thoroughly enjoyed this chronicle of a bookseller. Great booklists and recommendations. I think I liked it so much because we have similar reading taste!"
"While I found this book interesting and the book lists valuable, I was appalled by the number of author's names that were misspelled! The worst example is Tomie DePaola. First of all, his first name was spelled Tomi throughout the book, and in one paragraph, his last name is spelled DePaola in the first sentence and DePaolo in the last sentence. I can't believe a book about books contains errors like that."
