Let's just say that again: BOOK RATINGS.
Naomi "Tipper" Wolf wants to put ratings on books.
(Via Colleen Mondor, who was actually able to articulate about the idea. I just spluttered.)

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if it happened. What a crappy idea.

No, no. It's a GREAT idea. Because then you can keep some of them in a locked case and demand to see IDs of potential buyers. And then, imagine all the underage kids hanging around the front of the bookstore trying to convince adults to buy them the latest Gossip Girl.

Although increased interest in books and furtive planning to possess them sounds very appealing, the idea of books as contraband is just a little too Fahrenheit 451 for me.
