Stumptown comics Fest and book review Bookhunter

Bookhunter by Jason Shiga

I love this book! It is about library police who hunt down book thieves for the California Library Systems in the 1970s. Specifically, book thieves of Oakland Public Library are hunted. Library staff and patrons: if you have ever been frustrated by damaged or stolen books this is your cathartic release. My husband and I have jokingly discussed the need for a literacy program with the slogan READ OR DIE! Shiga plays on this theme. Check it out!

Also if you are in Portland this weekend there is the Stumptown Comics Fest at the Lloyd Center Double Tree Hotel. Be there!
