We know that books change lives. But how exactly does it happen? How does #bibliotherapy work? And what do we as a society risk with the closure of public libraries?

Today's post is a humorous, heartfelt Q&A with The Literary Lifeline author Kevin Harvey: https://t.co/YcolwCxAHm

[Sarah MacDonald @SarahMac_Editor]

We're delighted too! Congratulations!
