A piece of information presented during the broadcast is missing from the transcript: Memberships for library cards are up 24% since the beginning of last year.
So, people --more people, are discovering books again. At least they are here. Has anyone else seen a local report on how their library system is doing? I'd wager the recession is leading many people back to books, which can only mean good news for writers.
And it appears that romance is a healthy market as well:
