Sneak Peek: The Armadillo's Pillow

By Loud Library

While on a fact-finding mission to The Armadillo's Pillow bookstore, Loud Library happened upon this lovely 1st edition [1904] copy of The Master's Violin by Myrtle Reed, a successful author in her day.

Opinion is divided over Miss Reed's merit as a writer - some praise her love stories as sweet and insightful, others dismiss them as sentimental and thin.

Whatever the case may be, Loud Library is excited to put The Master's Violin on the to-read list.
