Translation Challenge: Made in Japan
We’re nearly 4 months into the Translation Challenge and I know I’ve been a bit lax with exciting extras, so I would like to propose that the month of May is Japan Month. I’d love for all my challengees to read something Japanese in May….

2013 Translation Challenge
Translated fiction is becoming much more popular these days but there are still lots of readers who ignore it. Reading international fiction is a great way to see different sides of other countries’ culture and every-day life as well as opening up a whole new…
December Sci-Fi Link-Up
Apparently science fiction writers don’t really do Christmas. I have been trying to find you a festive read for December but going by my own rules of being easily found and not too expensive, there wasn’t really a stand out book. So here are eight…

June Sci-Fi Link-Up
Thank you to everyone that shared their thoughts this month. Apparently you like the group reads even if you’re not actively taking part. However the linky entries were down after I announced the lack of monthly giveaways… Remember each review you link will count as…
