Is any one of these themes inherent in the works of Lemony Snicket?
A far inferior and more mundane writer than I aspire to be, granted, but he has at least shown that these so called 'boundries' are fictatious.

When I finally get round to reading it - when is it going to be in The Works? - I shall be counting how many times you use HARD.

It's like you're on stabilisers. I'm sure they'll let you have a hardback one day.
Is it in libraries?
How do they decide which books go into libraries? I used to know but I've forgotten.

He's definitely that.

Probably not. Don't they have to wait six months before they go into libraries?

The library I use tends to get books in straight after release, or thereabouts.
