Awesomly minimalitic. I like it. I think it matches it’s purpose perfectly.
I love how the longer content, for example the about page, resembles a book, pretty successfully too.
@Shelly, it takes about 2 seconds to scroll down a tiny bit to realise its a blog about books. Anyway, just because YOU can’t figure it out, doesn’t mean it fails.

interesting, not I cannot figure out what the point of the site is, so its failing in that regard
I think it says pretty plainly in the foot, actually.
“A Working Library is a blog about reading—both an exploration of and an advocate for the reading experience.”

For me it’s an ideal example of a clean website.
I think the design looks neat because of the different well chosen fonts.
I am sick to death of that damn typeface! =D
(the serif in the middle for blog posts)
Now that’s minimalistic and serious.
I don’t like so much this site so minimalistic…I think is better see some graphics sometimes!
OMG! it is typography and like a resume more than a website
I agree its a beautiful site, but the UX is poor for the fact that I can’t tell what it is about.
It should be screaming the purpose as loud as it screams how beautiful it is.
