Who hasn't peeked over the shoulder of the person reading next to
them on the subway, curious about the book in their hands? Who
doesn't secretly love skipping the party to stay home and read? Who
hasn't daydreamed of catching the eye of a future significant other
as you discover from across the room that you're reading the same
book? If you're a reader, you know you've been there, and probably
in so many other weird places as well, right? That's what happens
with readers, they have these strange traits, these particular
ways, that separate them from the rest. Reading Quirks explores, in
72 lighthearted four-frame cartoons, all these weird things readers
do, from the existential dilemma of picking your next read to the
frustrations of watching an overzealous dog-earer in action. The
series was written and created by a bookstore in Dallas, The Wild
Detectives, originally as a social media campaign-a way to connect
with other readers over a shared understanding of what it means to
be crazy about books. Laura Pacheco's adorable illustrations
introduce a cast of endearing characters, whose flaws and
obsessions range from disarming good nature to mischievous
playfulness. Reading Quirks is a witty and light-hearted ode to the
immense pleasure of reading and its resulting byproduct: neurosis.
