*Did you know there's now an awards show for book trailers? Yep, there is. The first ever Moby Awards took place last night - you can check out the winners and finalists here.
*Happy birthday, Penguin! The publisher is celebrating its 75th anniversary with a spiffy website, a book about its iconic covers, a contest to win 75 of its titles, and a cutecutecute Penguin-themed Mini Cooper.
*Better late than never. The Law of Nations by Emer de Vattel, borrowed by George Washington (yes, that one) more than 200 years ago from the New York Society Library, has finally been returned, albeit in the form of a copy of the same edition, since the exact book has never been found.
