The 200-year celebration for Enoch Pratt at Baltimore's Enoch Pratt Free Library featured a special cake by star cake designer Duff Goldman of Charm City Cakes. This edible stack of books included H.L. Mencken's The American Language, Edgar Allan Poe's The Black Cat, Anne Tyler's Breathing Lessons, and Laura Lippman's Every Secret Thing, and was topped with a small figurine of Pratt wearing a suit and a birthday hat.

Eek! Chockful of Balmer refs -- whattadeal. Hurray for Laura Lippman, who continues to do great stuff.

Oh I so adore this. All the more so because EVERY SECRET THING is a truly brilliant novel and yeah yeah, the author is my friend but I'm not that much of a suck-up. Laura will be Guest of Honor at this year's Bouchercon and a couple years back won Maryland Writer of the Year, which I know thrilled her because it was given by librarians, and one of her parents was a librarian.
