The Ghost and the Goth?
Get to know author Stacey Kade in interviews with The Raven Happy Hour, Muggle-Born and Electrifying Reviews.

Look at all these links lying around...

Via YA Highway's tumblr: Pixar's Story Rules, Illustrated in Legos at Slackstory.
Vintage Book Design launches their Vintage Children's Classics list with some amazing cover redesigns.  Check out the full list and watch the video.  My favorite covers are Little Women, I Capture the Castle, The Wolves of Willoughby Chase and the Swallows and Amazons series.

I wish I had a spare room to transform into a personal library.
