I just picked up the book Principles of Uncertainty
by Maira Kalman (no, that's not a typo) from the library yesterday. It is wonderful. My new absolute favorite book of all time for the moment. Certain anonymous friends of mine would be wise not to get this book at this time. After all, Christmas is coming.
Here are the two sentences:

Bonus: here's an image of a sample page:
P.S. I should mention that Teaser Tuesday is hosted by Miz B. of Should Be Reading. Hello everyone from over there! Thanks for visiting!

Glad you're enjoying your book. Check out my Tuesday Teaser.
Is that the lady who does work for the NY Times? Her style looks familiar.

My teaser is here.
I like the illustrations...you don't find those often in adult books, but I enjoy when they're there.
Thanks for stopping my my blog!
I am glad you like your book!
