Anne of Green Gables Goes Goth

OK, not really. But apparently, the final book in the series is going to be re-released in its entirety - and it's a lot darker. The book will revolve around:

"adultery, illegitimacy, misogyny, revenge, murder, despair, bitterness, hatred, and death – usually not the first terms associated with LM Montgomery."

That sounds like an interesting read. Read the full article in the Guardian.

Awaiting Summer Read

This Klostermanesque (probably with less self-deprecating humor and more... outwardly?-deprecating humor) novel is the one I'll be looking for to get a break from chunkier books this summer. While it technically won't be a beach read, since I will be reading it from the apartment where I refuse to turn the A/C on in southern Indiana, I plan on pretending it is.

Read the NYTimes Review, including a satirical NYT Bestseller List, and look out for ours. Nice.
