News, reviews, and interviews from the trenches of the book publishing and stationery industries, from Andrew Shaffer, creative director of greeting card publisher Order of St. Nick and author of the forthcoming HarperCollins book Great Philosophers Who Failed at Love.

Disclosure: Book reviews may be based on advance reading copies supplied by publishers. Also, Andrew's first book is being published this fall by HarperCollins, so there's a chance he might be biased towards their products. On a completely unrelated note, be sure to pick up Sarah Palin's memoir.
