Title: Writers Between the Covers:
The Scandalous Romantic Lives of Legendary Literary Casanovas, Coquettes, and
Cads
Description: Short
(8-10 page chapters) detail the love lives of various authors. Of course these
are the most shocking and salacious the authors could discover. The chapters
alternate with short selections that give just tidbits of information.

Thing Early Reviewers
Writing style: It’s gossipy. The
authors figure the readers want to know all the naughty details that aren’t in
the standard biographies.
Audience: Book nerds.
Major ideas: The personal lives of
geniuses are pretty messed up.
Wrap-up: This book is entertaining, but
don’t read it if you don’t want to know your literary heroes’ feet of clay.
4/5*
