Pressestimmen
“Marianne Martens looks at the recent trend among book publishers of creating participatory websites aimed at teenage readers. … one of the most important aspects of Martens’s work is providing future researchers with detailed descriptions of these three sites – how they functioned, who their target audiences were, what features they offered, et cetera.” (Christopher Doody, Papers of the Bibliographical Society of Canada, Vol. 55 (1), March, 2017)
