Welcome to the Book Nook! This is the weekly thread for Avocados to discuss books we’re currently reading, recommendations, genre, and serious literary criticism.

This week’s recommended discussion: We do this every few months, but it’s always a fun one. What are some of your favorite non-fiction books about books, publishing, writers, or writing ?

One caveat: because we’re here to use our words, this is a NO GIF/YouTube/social media embed zone (the OTs are full of clutter, and I want to keep that out of this thread).

upcoming topics:
4/3: books we had to read; is a voluntary re-read different (h/t G 40F6D8)
4/10: when do you give up on a book (h/t sic humor)

Book Nook posts every Wednesday at 8:15 AM Eastern. (Unless WordPress borks.)
