The Night Bookmobile

Author: Audrey Niffenegger
Stars: 3
Review by: Mary NK

A woman finds a mysterious bookmobile full of all the books she ever read - and nothing else. She becomes so obsessed with the hope of working there that she kills herself to become like the mysterious librarian; only to learn that Night Bookmobiles are only for the living. I'm torn between the very novel & attractive concept of everything I ever read being saved, and the disturbing thought that excessive reading can lead to madness.
