    I've been wanting to read Stealing Heaven (along with several other books)! I've heard good things about Elizabeth Scott :)

    Sorcerors & Secretaries sounds like an interesting combination. I'm assuming that it's a pretty cute and romance-y manga?

    Sorcerors & Secretaries is by one of my favorite webcomic artists!

    You must look at her Reman Mythology (even though she stopped work on it to work on Sorcerors & Secretaries): http://remanmythology.felaxx.com/

Dear Books: Please Update Your Libraries

There is nothing worse than coming across a book you are really enjoying only to be pulled out of it because of some outdated and incorrect library reference. I know that authors and illustrators will not always get everything 100% accurate, but I when I read books that show a very dated stereotype, or something that is just so incorrect, I always wonder why. I feel like authors and illustrators should know better! And it's not just older books-it happens in new books too!
