You mean the judge-y, shush-y, old-style librarian way? :)

I actually have to try not to be too strident when recommending books. Mostly I just am starting to have the urge to walk up to people and insert a book in whatever hand they have that isn't holding a phone. Just so, you know, they have a book if they need one. :)

I've read your writing, you know, so I know you pull off all your essays with aplomb as well!! Thanks for that.
