Scenele redate de Anca ar fi amuzante daca nu ar fi triste. Asa a spus, la un moment dat, un cititor si i-am dat dreptate. La prima citire, te amuzi. Uneori (de cele mai multe ori!) razi cu lacrimi. La a doua citire, sau poate chiar la a treia, partea amuzanta ramane deoparte si vezi realitatea. Vezi omul din spatele cartilor si oamenii pe care ii intalneste zi de zi, oamenii aceia care nu au habar ca librarul citeste carti si nu ganduri. Citind cartea Jurnal de Librar, nu numai ca vei privi cu alti ochi libraritul, dar e foarte posibil sa te imprietenesti cu primul librar care iti va iesi in cale si sa-i multumesti pentru rabdare, pentru zambet si chiar sa aranjezi cartea cazuta de pe raft pe care, intre doi clienti nehotarati, taraitul telefonului si cutia cu noutati ce trebuie etichetate si puse la raft, nu a reusit sa o aseze la locul ei.” (Andreea Ban – Serial Readers) Jurnal de librar a fost, la inceput, un hashtag pe care-l foloseam la finalul fiecarei povestiri legate de ceea ce mi se intampla la munca, pe care o puneam pe Facebook nu atat din dorinta de a arata ce amuzanta e viata de librar, ci mai mult sperand ca publicul larg, consumatorii de carte si nu numai, vor vedea meseria de librar mai aproape de ceea ce este ea de fapt si mai putin un ah, ce frumos, stai toat ziua si citesti si mai iei si salar”. Nu, n-ai nici macar voie sa citesti la munca in cele mai multe locuri. Si daca ar fi asa, salariul nu e deloc de invidiat.” (Anca Zaharia) Hypermarket. Pe galeria comerciala sunt standuri cu bijuterii, cosmetice, asigurari pentru diverse ocazii” nefericite, tigari electronice si cate si mai cate. Printre toate acestea apare, intr-o noapte de iarna, un stand cu carti, menit sa aduca si ceva cultura in acest mediu. Ca daca iese omul duminica din casa si vrea sa-si cumpere un pet de bere si niste seminte, sa aiba unde gasi si niste carti de dezvoltare personala si psihologie, de exemplu.

This exciting adventure story follows a family of slaves in the USA in 1860 as they escape from a cotton plantation via the legendary Underground Railroad. An enthralling story of courage and resilience, centring on 10-year-old Tommy, it will fascinate children who might not know much about this secret escape route into Canada that was used by as many as 100,000 people. Ten-year-old Tommy roams the cotton fields of Alabama owned by the notorious Captain Archer. Intimidating guards with fierce dogs protect the land to prevent any slaves from leaving. That is until a supernatural spirit visits Tommy offering a way out. With his banjo slung over his shoulder, Peg Leg Joe guides Tommy, his family and other slaves out of Southern USA, and into Canada through the legendary Underground Railroads. Stretched for miles across the country's vastness, the network famously facilitated more than 100,000 slaves to a new life. For Tommy and his family, the escape is far from an easy ride. The young boy is forced to mature through this testing period and allow his strong will to guide himself and others to safety under the guidance of Peg Leg Joe. Set in the 19th century, D'Adamo's well-constructed novel tells a story distant in time, remains grounded in a reality that still exists today. Millions of people across the globe continue to be enslaved, including children.
Lynnwood

FINALIST IN THE PEOPLE'S BOOK PRIZE 2013/14 The unthinkable is happening in Lynnwood – a village with centuries of guilt on its conscience. Who wouldn't want to live in an idyllic village in the English countryside like Lynnwood? With its charming pub, old dairy, friendly vicar, gurgling brooks, and its old paths with memories of simpler times. But behind the conventional appearance of Lynnwood's villagers, only two sorts of people crawl out of the woodwork: those who hunt and those who are prey. Reviews: 'A dark horror story set in a picturesque village. I would recommend this to fans of classic English horror as well as fans of Stephen King.' – Lucy O'Connor, Waterstones "A quintessentially British folk horror chiller, with an escalating power of dread that is rendered deftly. A new voice in British horror, that you'll want to read, has entered the field." – Adam Nevill 'The plot line is new and exciting ... I was surprised more than once at what was happening. If you are looking for a good book, definitely pick up this one.' – Alison Mudge, Librarian, USA " … A dark journey not only of the mind, but of the soul. Mr. Brown's extraordinary talent is evident as he paints a virtual feast for the reader with eloquently chosen prose in this powerfully engaging novel." – Nina D'Arcangela 'An exciting, on the edge of your seat gothic that will have readers begging for more.' – Rosemary Smith, Librarian 'An exciting début from a new young writer with a dark imagination. Thomas Brown's beautifully written novel proposes a modern gothic forest far from the tourist trail, a place filled with strange events and eerie consequences.' – Philip Hoare. 'This book was great! I loved the author's writing style - the words flowed perfectly. Reading this was less like reading a book and more like watching the movie in my mind's eye. Fantastic!' – Laura Smith, Goodreads Reviewer
