thanks for the support! we've linked you at "Manuscripts Don't Burn"
thanks a lot for featuring us. it really helps to get the word out.
Thanks for linking us up as well. I find your banned book list interesting in that not too many North American books are also banned in Malaysia but that "types" of books and "reasons" for banning are similar. Poor old Sponge Bob (Malaysia) and Captain Underpants (US).
