Last summer, while shopping at a Half Price Books And Records location in Chicago, I [Keith Phipps] came across something I didn’t know I needed until I saw it. After perusing the recent arrivals, I made my way to the less heavily trafficked back of the store where, next to stacks of back issues of Good Housekeeping I found a big, narrow box wrapped in plastic. It contained over 75 old paperbacks published between the ‘60s and ‘80s, all of it genre fiction, most of it science fiction. I had to have it, and at the price of $35, I somehow couldn’t afford not to buy it.
I also gave myself the project of reading the entire box. And after neglecting that project for a while, I decided to revive it here
He's started on his 5th book and I think it's a lot of fun to keep up with his reading of the entire box.
(I've always though books with commercials/advertisements in them were just hilarious.)
