Just in time for Halloween, it’s William Burroughs hatchet pumpkin time.

William Burroughs really knew how to carve a pumpkin. We’re afraid.
Here's an idea for pumpkin-carving-time, courtesy of William Burroughs. Now I just need to find a rusty, dull butcher's knife to do it with.
Eleanor Catton asks novel questions with epic ambition in The Luminaries Justine Jordan, theguardian.com

Tonight's captivating foodie read: COWGIRL CREAMERY COOKS by Sue Conley and Peggy Smith (on sale at the end of October, from @ChronicleBooks). Ina Garten says, "Sue and Peggy produce some of the greatest cheeses in the United States and run one of the best cheese shop, and now they've shared with us a world of knowledge we can bring home to our own kitchens ... I can't wait to cook my way through their gorgeous book!" The book's page at Edelweiss: http://edelweiss.abovethetreeline.com/ProductDetailPage.aspx?sku=1452111634

PLEASE do not remove the Flickr attribution or re-upload this photo set. Remy LeBeau worked very hard to track down this magazine and share these images with us! I know there is very little I can do to stop you from doing these things but heed my words - stealing is not the Sassy Magazine way.
So this is where I've been all weekend - hanging with my bookseller and publisher compadres. It's been an amazing three days!

Most picture book writers and illustrators learn pretty quickly that a standard picture book is thirty-two pages long. But why? True, that is a convenient length â- not too long, not too short. And…

An advance copy of the quite-literally enchanting BALLAD by Blexbolex is here. I was pretty amazed by the digital art I used to sell the book all summer, but nothing prepared me for the massive book lust this tiny book awakened.
It ships next month.

The Suicide Shop by Jean Teulé (Gallic Books / Consortium)
The review in Shelf Awareness for Readers says: "Quirky and hilarious, this dark fable about a future in which a suicide boutique flourishes until the proprietors give birth to an optimistic son affirms the joys of living."
For readers feeling overwhelmed by the influx of dystopian- and apocalyptic-themed entertainment, Jean Teulé's The Suicide Shop, first published in France in 2006, will hit the spot. Environmental and economic chaos have wrecked the Earth. In this sad new world, suicide rates soar. For proper equipment and professional advice, many of the would-be dead turn to the Suicide Shop. (Its motto: "Has your life been a failure? Let's make your death a success.") The Tuvache family has run the shop for generations, bemoaning that their commitment to helping others choose and carry out their dream deaths dooms them to living long, depressed lives. Monsieur and Madame Tuvache assist customers in selecting nooses, poisons and seppuku trappings by day and read their children bedtime stories about doomed lovers at night. Their daughter is convinced of her own ugliness and uselessness; their oldest son bandages his head against perpetual migraines while designing a suicide-themed amusement park. They're the ideal purveyors of death, at least until Alan is born. Alan, the third Tuvache child, exhibits a disturbing tendency toward smiling. As Alan grows up, he continues to show unmistakable signs of happiness and optimism: laughing, joking, singing silly songs and, worst of all, trying to convince customers that life is worth living.
