An Assortment Of Bookish Links - II

Super quick post from me. I have a couple of half-written reviews pending, but my parents were around for a couple of weeks, and they took priority. Sorry! Anyway, came across two links today that I thought I should share - yes, I know, two isn't really an "assortment," but hey ho!

The Guardian is running a competition, "Shelf Conscious," where they invite you to post pictures of your bookshelves.  I love seeing other people's bookshelves, and the Flickr group has some fantastic shots.
