The Ten-Cent Plague by David Hajdu

My better half is reading The Ten Cent Plague by David Hadju and he seems to really enjoy it. I'll admit I tried to read this a couple weeks ago and I gave up. It was a top pick on Amazon last year and got all-around positive reviews. I even read that it's the type of book that all can enjoy, not just comic book lovers. Well, that's a big fat lie. It's not like I'm a comic book hater, either. I enjoy a good Archie Double Digest and love the comic book movies, but, I really think you have to loooooooove and appreciate and know quite a bit about comic books to really enjoy this book. Which my husband does, so it makes sense that he would like the book way more than I did. I really didn't get that far before I couldn't take it anymore. However, if you regularly read or follow comic books, this is definitely a must-read.
