If you are heavily involved or interested in the literary world you have probably at one time or another heard of Nancy Pearl. American librarian, best-selling author, and literary critic; Nancy has done it all and made quite a name for herself in the book world. One of my favourite Nancy facts is that she is the only librarian to have her only action figure. I wanted to share this article from the Globe and Mail that I just read. It is written by Nancy and describes her "Rule of 50", a rule for dropping a bad / disappointing/etc...book. As someone who often has a hard time putting down a book that I'm not enjoying (I always feel that I should finish what I started!) I find this to be quite the helpful and informative read (Yay! Other people face this problem too!).
