This and That

Stephen King fans, rejoice! There will be a new novel in October. Obviously, he hasn't quit writing yet. Ari Fleischer's new book. The NY Times, The Washington Post. I think I'll be skipping this one. I'm afraid someone might get hurt when I hurl it across the room. 8,000 items missing from the British Library. (link via Bookninja) I can understand how a few things could disappear, but 8,000?
