Baby Got Books
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Today’s blog is a plug for another blog. A competitor, if you wish to think of it that way, or just another spot where more people like to yammer about books.
Baby Got Books is not really an Atlanta book blog, but it feels like one, because a number of the contributors are Atlanta-based. So recently there have been posts about Dan Kennedy coming to Wordsmiths Books, Salman Rushdie speaking at Emory, and Art Spiegelman at SCAD.
They even do contests where they give away books. Hmm, wish I had thought of that.
Anyway, they’re smart and they have good taste. Check ‘em out, but then come back to The Book Page.
Speaking of Kennedy, he will be appearing Saturday night at Wordsmiths Books in Decatur in what should be a lively evening. There’s going to be rock music, and Kennedy is promoting “Rock On,” his very funny memoir of a brief stint in the land of leather pants, i.e. working for a big rock record label just as the whole music industry was circling the porcelain bowl. I laughed loud, hard and often reading it.
