Hello Minnesota Readers,

We’re going to be taking the rest of the week off to enjoy the Christmas festivities. We hope your holiday is filled with love, joy, bourbon, and gift certificates to your favorite bookstore. If you come back on Monday, we’ll have some helpful suggestions on what to buy with your ill-gotten booty when we start posting out Top Books We Read in 2009 lists.

In the meantime, I’ve got an educational video I’d like you to watch. It was recently brought to my attention that not everyone is familiar with the original source of the tagline we so blatantly stole. So take a listen to Moxy Fruvous’ “My Baby Loves a Bunch of Authors” and all will be made clear.
