You’re getting this week’s dispatch tonight because the weather has been freakishly warm and we’ve been outside all day, drinking. Here’s hoping this holds us over until May.

Here’s what you missed this week:

• As I write this, I’m quitting my job to become a barefoot bookseller. Or elephant librarian. (Penguin)
• While we covered SBCs early last year, learn how the ultimate book club for introverts got its start. Just imagine the stares these ladies got reading a book. In a bar. The scandal! (SF Gate)
• The book is always better than the show. This time, we’re talking about Gossip Girl. (Vogue)

Cheers,

EV
