I'm Just Wild about Harry

Alibris sent me a lovely e-mail today, the best advertising using Harry Potter I've seen in a Post-Potter world. Instead of the "If you liked Harry, you'll like" strategy (which I don't knock at all--it works reasonably well, in my experience, in both hand sales and at the library), they took a completely different tack, recommending books that are either by an author named Harry/Harold/etc. or about characters/subjects that have some variation on the same. Recommended titles include:

* The Overlook, by Michael Connelly, in his LAPD series about homicide detective Harry Bosch
* Truman, by David G. McCullough, about the life of Harry S. Truman
* Harriet the Spy, by Louise Fitzhugh
* Jesus and Yahweh: The Names Divine, Harold Bloom's newest nonfiction

So, hurrah, Alibris, for making me smile when I checked my e-mail.

Tangent: I now have a paid account, and would like to have the nifty tag cluster feature that journal users like slwhitman sport. How do I do that? Must I change my background and etc?
