		<description><![CDATA[<style>.newl {display:none}</style><div class=newl></div>As a curio, I read Melissa de la Cruz&#8217;s Blue Bloods, the first of the Blue Blood YA vampire series. I&#8217;m certainly not in the right market (wrong sex, too old) but the book does worry me slightly. The blue is not so much royal but a paler shade&#8230;
Don&#8217;t get me wrong; fast reading fluff [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A list I&#8217;m on had a link to this interview with Ursula le Guin on the Oregon Live website. Le Guin talks about the Google books settlement which she calls the &#8220;Google books grab&#8221; but the thing which shocked me was:

Jesse, I&#8217;m glad you liked it and, to be honest, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[AS Byatt has an interesting article on Alice in the Guardian as the film opens in the UK on March 5th. As she muses, she comes up with the idea that Alice and her other favourite childhood books are so popular because they encourage the reader to recreate themin their own mind.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve just finished Jamila Gavin&#8217;s wonderful The Blood Stone (Egmont, 2003) which is a really unsettling but rewarding read. I read an interview with her in Wasafiri (Issue 60) which made me pick this up and I&#8217;ve made to attempts to read it twice but I&#8217;ve aways been too tired and this is certainly not [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve just come across an argument on one of children&#8217;s mailing lists regarding Jaclyn Dolamore&#8217;s debut novel, Magic Under Glass. The publisher, Bloomsbury USA, have put a white girl on the cover of  a novel where the protagonist is dark-skinned which reprises the cover issues that Justine Larbalestier originally had for her novel, Liar.

I&#8217;ve presented and been to a couple of these and they really are good. Shame their not online afterwards though.

On and off, I&#8217;ve begun (re)reading his books which I&#8217;ve got on my shelf and I&#8217;ll probably try and get hold of his comic as well.

Right from the top, I think this is Cory&#8217;s best novel to date and his most accomplished. Makers is a generational musing on the idea of [...]]]></description>
