"So Many books, so little time: a year of passionate reading", de Sara Nelson, contiene algo así como el diario de una "libroadicta" o "librocohólica". Esta editora de contenidos de la revista Glamour, aficionada a la lectura como a otras cosas, se planteó como propósito de Año Nuevo leer un libro cada semana del año y poner por escrito lo que siempre había estado deseando: "tratar de ver si encajan tus experiencias personales con tu experiencia de la lectura". No se trata de un ensayo de psicología de la lectura, sino del relato contagioso de 52 semanas de lecturas entusiastas, que van desde los clásicos a manuales de autoayuda, desde best-sellers del momento a biografías, memorias, ensayo; se trata de una carta de amor a los autores de los libros que disfruta; se trata de vivir con su familia (marido e hijos) las sensaciones, las experiencias, y las enseñanzas de los libros que reseña.
"I'm here tying to choose my first book of the year. I've spent a good couple of days thinking about what that book should be, wich means I've been scanning these shelves as well as shifting though the piles near my bed, the ones metally marked Must Read, Might Read, and Maybe Someday. I'm intemittently ruthless about the assignment of these categories..."
"This book will inspire and humor those who can't go anywhere without something to read.... a work that will make readers run to the shelf to discover which book beckons next." Library Journal.

"Nelson examines phenomena that will make many readers smile with recognition: the false importance of an overhyped book, the recommendation from a friend that makes you think less of your friend, and, most dreaded of all, the book you feel guilty for not having read." The New Yorker
"This is a wonderful read in itself and an invaluable source of books to be explored." Barbara Wyatt, Elle
