Books and Snark

Professional bookworm and snarkaholic. I post about books I love, the travails of life as a bookseller, and (sometimes) book photography. Total Tolkien trash. Malec shipper and general Magnus supporter. Hufflepuff.

I am so incredibly sad. A great actor has passed away today. He brought to life so many iconic characters and he will be greatly missed.

Rest in Peace, Mr. Rickman
