I do most of my reading at night, before I sleep. So imagine my surprise when a children's novel gave me the willies. A children's novel that won the Carnegie Medal for the author. Parts of it was pretty macabre. Rats eating rats, social commentary on "humane" humans, mind control...and yet what my mind focused on the most after I finished was: why do the British write miaow and Americans write meow? I woke up Sunday morning and finished the book so that I wouldn't have to read it at night.
