		<description><![CDATA[By Margaret Sacks Read: February 2010 Rating: Hmm I want to talk about this book in two capacities&#8211;as a story, and as a representation of South Africa. My bestie gave it to me for Xmas, and it looks like a pretty rare find to me. I had no idea there were kids books about SA <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2010/02/beyond-safe-boundaries/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By Hergé Read: September 2009 Rating: Transitional One can definitely feel the transitional quality of this volume. It FEELS like a Tintin book, but the story is quite choppy, and for good reason&#8211;originally, it was running as a serial. There is a consistent story arc, but it&#8217;s not like later books where everything is geared <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2009/09/the-cigars-of-the-pharoah/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By Naomi Novik Read: June/July 2008 Rating: Fascinating I put off reading EoI for a long while because I just wasn&#8217;t in the mood. I read the first three Temeraire books back in &#8217;06 and they have since been passed on to both my parents.

		<description><![CDATA[Adam Ashforth Rating: Decent Read: December 2005 I&#8217;m unsure how to categorize this one. It was required reading for my Apartheid &#38; After class. The main issue? Witchcraft. Really, this book is an account of modern South Africa&#8217;s struggle with a tradition and supernaturally intrinsic past and its modern present.

		<description><![CDATA[By Helen Fielding Rating: Excellent. Read: May 2005 Helen Fielding has proven herself to be one of my favorite authors. Bridget Jones saved me on a 17-hour flight home from Cape Town and I found a British copy of Cause Celeb in Strand NYC. This is Fielding&#8217;s first novel, and if I can manage to <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2005/05/cause-celeb/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By Albert Camus Rating: Poor. Read: March 2004 Category-ReqSchool Category-Ugh For Rebellion &#38; Conformity, or whatever it is we&#8217;re studying right now, we&#8217;re reading The Stranger. We&#8217;re maybe two chapters from the end, and I am not moved. Meursault is the most apathetic character I have ever read about. This makes him boring. He doesn&#8217;t <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2005/03/the-stranger/'>[...]</a>]]></description>
