Born, like other comic book characters, out of an otherwise trivial but life-changing animal bite, the Rabid Librarian seeks out strange, useless facts, raves about real and perceived injustices, and seeks to meet her greatest challenge of all--her own life.

Intriguing
Awful Library Books--which looks at books that should be weeded from public library collections--is an entertaining blog which took a look at a book that wasn't so much an awful library book as an intriguing one whose theme matched today's Talk Like a Pirate Day. I'll have to see if my library has a copy. [Alas, I just did, and they don't.] If not, the Kindle edition of Jewish Pirates of the Caribbean: How a Generation of Swashbuckling Jews Carved Out an Empire in the New World in Their Quest for Treasure, Religious Freedom--and Revenge is less than $10. It's such a great title. :) Avast ye maties! Find it! Read it! Or ye walk the plank!
