A fantastic read. Guess I should read the first book now. Fortunately they can be read out of order without missing anything.

Talked to someone who has been dabbling in translating fiction. This guy was horrified when I told him that if he uses machine translation for more than dictionary checks of individual words, he can't put his name on the translation and the work is ineligible under most standard publishing contracts.
"OMG, but then it would take FOREVER to translate a novel!?!?"
Yes. You're right. That's why translators get paid.
"Jane Eyre" has joined the list for the first time, Florida and Texas are the biggest banners, and Stephen King is still the most banned author. Search Surf to discover what people are saying about Banned Books Week.

Fantastic. I wasn't sure about it when I picked this up, but it was a staff recommendation at the store, so I gave it a chance. Didn't take long at all to grab and hold my interest.

Never in my life have I wanted to punch a villain so badly.
The first couple chapters were really depressing, and I was regretting starting this book just before bed. But chapter three turned things around pretty quickly, and from there I had a great time reading this. I recommend it to anyone who loves books in general.
WTF kids can't even read anymore?
