Awful Library Books – My New Favorite Website

Always read the subhead.

There’s a new highly-specific blog in town and it’s called Awful Library Books, where two public librarians from Michigan go through the stacks to find the worst titles/covers/general content they can in an effort to showcase some cool books that may have been overlooked, or simply force public libraries to be more current.

Join forces and submit books to the site at submit@awfullibrarybooks.net.
