The Midnight Palace by Carlos Ruiz Zafón and Ruby Red by Kerstin Geir, is up at the Kirkus blog.
And if you enjoyed Ruby Red, or are interested in translated lit in general, Publishers Weekly interviewed Ruby Red’s translator, Anthea Bell, last month.
My list of YA books in translation is here.
Speaking of interviews, there’s a great one at SLJ with Casey Scieszka and Steven Weinberg, the couple behind the highly enjoyable To Timbuktu: Nine Countries, Two People, One True Story, which I read during the 48 Hour Book Challenge.
