Praise for Pacific Northwest Reader…
“The Pacific Northwest Reader is a wonderful collection by a group of writers whose keen eye for place and story bursts from these sharp essays. From bookish nostalgias set in cold and soggy places to the poignant story of a clown looking for connection to what happens when teenage vampires take over your hometown, this is a great read.” - Jess Walter
“I know the creators of these true stories. They work in the bookstores I visit every day. I chat with them, we tell jokes and talk about the business, and debate which book is happening and which book is hot and what's coming next. I suspected some of them were writers, but I had no idea they were so darned good! These personal tales are fantastic, fun, and delightful on their own; they're a wonderful patchwork quilt of the region when taken as a whole. I loved this collection!” - Garth Stein
