Journal Entry 1 by O-Jenny from Temple, Texas USA on Friday, July 12, 2002

"Walter Benjamin at the Dairy Queen" is Larry McMurtry's memoir. I have to admit, the first time I read it (for a book club), I had to work to get through it. However, I picked it up again right before the meeting and sped right through it. I enjoyed it the second time around. It inspired my friend and me to take a trip to Archer City and visit McMurtry's stores. It was amazing to see several hundred thousand books - each with his pencil mark in the front cover! I wouldn't be surprised to find some BookCrossing books at Booked Up eventually.

I donated this book to the library for their Friends of the Library sale on Labor Day weekend. You should be able to purchase it at the sale (really cheap, and all proceeds benefit the library).
