Importance of books cannot be minimized as it is the best teacher. I like the book libraries, trade fairs and exhibitions that are held to promote different kinds of books.

I read Devil in the White City about 3 months ago. I had resisted it thinking “what could be interesting about a world’s fair in the 1890’s?” I thought, great, the next big book is going to be about the 1964 New York World’s Fair.
I finally read it because I had heard so many good reports about it. Despite what seemed to be a boring subject, it worked. It held my interest. I think it would have worked even without the serial killer aspect. It shows that a good writer, as with a good teacher, can make what appears to be a boring subject interesting. I kind of hope that Larsen’s next book is about the 1964 New York World’s Fair.
