Why "Bookworm"? And especially "complete"?

Firstly, I once published a book called "Murder and Animal Cruelty in Children's Literature." That means there's continuity, as we know the distance from murder to bookworm is as short as the distance from a saxophone to a Finnish knife. Secondly, while it may be jarring, it's semantically quite clear, as it corresponds to our familiar "bookworm"—both the store and the individual. And it's complete because it combines the first two editions—"Bookworm" and "Extreme Bookworm"—with the addition of a few things missing from the previous editions.

And my "Bookworm" is also a work of fiction, and it should be perceived as such. Therefore, in addition to purely literary articles (or chapters, as you prefer), I've also included short stories disguised as notes on authors or books, notes on certain things seemingly unrelated to literature, and even literary "facts" based on fantastical assumptions.
And I've combined them all.

Hand on heart, this book is a small tribute to my long-standing passion for reading, a doomed attempt to interest as many people as possible in this worthwhile pursuit—my love affair with literature, after all. (Alexander Etoev)
