Jessa Crispin Goes Bookstore Speed-Dating

Jessa Crispin Goes Bookstore Speed-Dating:
"Another gentleman said he was reading Catcher in the Rye at the moment. “Oh, that’s a good book,” I told him. “Have you read it before?”

“I heard the guy that shot Ronald Reagan was carrying it on him and had to check it out!” says he. “It's a crazy book!'

This event was not going to help readers meet readers. It was going to cause women who read to go home, take a bubble bath, and contemplate running off to a nunnery."
