• Libraries, Books, & Authors:
• Happy birthday, Pearl S. Buck! She's the author of The Good Earth, which you should read if you haven't already. Be prepared to rage and cry. I've not read her most recently discovered book (The Eternal Wonder, missing for 40 years).  
• Lemony Snicket Helps 'Little Free Library' Advocate Spencer Collins 
• Darren Aronofsky's ‘MaddAddam' Brings Margaret Atwood Novels To HBO I'M SO EXCITED!!!! I really liked this series. 
• Pasco school drops 'Fault in Our Stars' author's book after parent's email Booooo censorship! 
• Barnes & Noble cuts Nook loose Apparently, B&N is turning a healthy profit with brick-and-mortar stores and print books, while e-readers and e-books are faltering. Interesting...I hope Nook survives, though - I really do think they have the best e-reader. 
• Word of the Day: Petrichor. It's a favorite word of mine.
• Science:
• Scientists Grow Miniature Beating Hearts In The Lab 
• Other:
• Graphic Designer Sends Out 4-Pack of Home Brew with Original Packaging as His Resume to Potential Employers I wonder what he brings to the interview.
