Afternoon links.

  • Speaking of Tim (who is also the brother of hello hello books), he's involved in the indie film Blue Potato, which, oddly enough, is set in my father's hometown and is about someone with our last name. (Not that French names are remotely unusual up in The County, but still.)
  • New tumblr to follow: The Sensible Nonsense Project. Tagline: "Remembering the books that taught us more than we ever cared to learn."
  • At the Guardian: Gregg Olsen's top 10 deadly reads. (Olsen is the author of Envy.)
