I wouldn't normally associate the phrase "bad-ass" with the concept of the "librarian," but the title piques my curiosity.

It is about a group of librarians who manage to save thousands of rare Islamic manuscripts in the city of Timbuktu in Western Africa. I really liked it.

[Amber]

LOL. I figured that out on my own with the mention of the city of Timbuktu, actually! *ROFLMAO!*

think I made a mistake in my counting in my previous post. I think my page count should have been 310, not 319.

I think you need to subtract nine pages from your total count, Kathy, to compensate for the extra nine pages I didn't actually read.
