Quote of the Week:
“What I like best is a book that's at least funny once in a while...What really knocks me out is a book that, when
you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him
up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.”
JD Salinger
