Synopsis

With over 7 million Instagram posts tagged #booknerd, and millions more tagged with the likes of #bookworm and #bibliophile, it's clear: Book nerds rule And what better gift than this joyous celebration of their singular passion.

It's sweet, it's affectionate, it's understanding and clever, filled with bright, playful, intricately detailed illustrations and wonderful mottoes, definitions, jokes, and more, all of it the work of book obsessive Holly Maguire. Following in the vein of Crazy Cat Lady, Crazy Plant Lady, and the just published Dog Mom--with over TK copies in print in their first year--Book Nerd celebrates the 360 love that separates a book nerd from the average person who likes to read, even the average book lover. A book nerd is someone special. She--or he --belongs to more than one library and has a minimum of five books on their nightside table. She confidently uses words like bibliotaph (a person who hides or hoards books), tsundonku (a Japanese word for the phenomenon of buying lots of books but never getting around to reading them), and librocubicularist (a person who reads in bed). She's never once thought the movie was better. And her favorite T-shirt says--what else?--"Too many books, too little time."

Synopsis

You know you're a Book Nerd when...

--You have a minimum of 5 books on your night table.

--You never thought one the movie was better.

--Your favorite mug says "I'd rather be reading."

--You use words like librocubicularist in casual conversation (though no conversation about books is ever casual").

Charming, affectionate, and unabashed in its celebration of bookishness, this little love letter is for every avid reader.
