Ahoy there mateys! I heard about this book from Matey Charley @ booksandbakes1. Who doesn’t love a true story involving bookstores and typewriters? So the editor, owns his grandfather’s 1930s Smith Corona typewriter. There be a cute story in that. Then in 2013, him and his wife opened up the Literati Bookstore in Ann Arbor, Michigan. There be a cute story in that. In said bookstore, Gustafson put out a typewriter and empty white page. This be the cute story of the messages and stories arising from what visitors to the bookstore have typed on it. Throughout are lovely recollections from the editor about his life and the bookstore. The book be short and I read it in one sitting. I thought it was lovely. Equally lovely is the design of the book and how all of the quotes are laid out. Beautiful. Arrr!
