books, cardigans, glasses, oxfords, skirts, buns, metadata and mylar, vintage and classic.

Part lookbook and archival evidence, part style diary, two information professionals (as well as a host of guest authors) seek personal style outside of the stereotypes.

Sick of articles about the future of reading? Try this drinking game.

Perfect for FRIDAY COCKTAILS!

A drinking game for getting through those fruitless articles about the future of the book.



A sampling:

“Will e-books wipe out/kill/decimate/pulverize/HULKSMASH/angry verb real books?” — one drink

Above question is lede — one drink

Every use of phrase “real book” — one drink

Expert you’ve never heard of before predicting percentages — one drink

Any predicted percentage of anything over 30% — one drink

Any discussion of book world after 2020 — one drink

“old-fashioned” — one drink

Passionate defense of DRM — one drink




So get reading/drinking!
