Expand your library horizons ( seblake )
I bought the 2008 edition based upon how satisfied I was with the 2007 edition. While I may not be enticed by the excellent summaries to read the book presented for each day, I gain some knowledge about a diverse range of authors and subjects. For those I wish to read, the daily pages are thorough references that stack very nicely in a drawer and carry very well to the store or library to obtain the book.

I love this calendar!
This is a must for any book lover!
I have bought the Book Lovers Calendar for more than 5 years - wouldn't start the year without one. I buy several each year so I can give them to friends as Christmas gifts, and one friend always relies on getting it from me.
I belong to a book club and many of our selections come from books reviewed in the calendar.
Each page can tear off to go in either my "take it to the library to find this book" stack, or into a stack for notepaper, since the backs of the pages are blank.

Book Lover's Calendar for 2008
Do you subscribe to the adage that there is no frigate like a book? Do you know what subjects attract you, but are frequently unacquainted with some of the latest published works about such things? If so, then the Page-a-Day Book Lover's Calendar of 2008 is for you. Each and every day for 365 days, you will be treated to a concise but informative synopsis of a book. Subjects can be fiction or non-fiction, and cover everything from serious scientific discoveries to biographies to pulp fiction. The Calendar itself is a mere 5 1/2 by 6 inches oblong, and can fit nicely on any desk without being obtrusive. A world of exciting knowledge and adventure wait for you each time you tear off a page. Enjoy!
