Pierogi are broader than just Polish, though that's how I first saw them, since Detroit has a huge Polish population. So, to quote from TastingPoland.com:

Does that make any sense? Or did I just muddy things up further? Alternatively, I could suggest Guilty Pleasures, books that you're kind of embarrassed to like reading. |

Oh, the Shame!: Guilty Pleasures or Guilty Pleasures: Mortifying Reads or both could combine Just for Fun: Guilty Pleasures which might be best of all. |

Yes, I like that last one: Just for Fun: Guilty Pleasures.
Into the Labyrinth is dangerous and puzzling - anything from the Minotaur of the original labyrinth to Kafka’s The Trial. Somehow putting an extra word or phrase seems to limit the phrase. I’m happy with just the word prodigies for mine. |

I love the idea of Guilty Pleasures -- and I'll be nominating my favourite Georgette Heyer!

I agree that Amazing hit the wrong note. How about Into the Labyrinth: The Quest? It might be foolish consistency, but I do like our standard format. I think it's worked well for us. What does fantasy fan have to say?

I did appreciate the pun, but we have reduced the impact of amazing down to mild surprise!
I like The Quest. While we wait for fantasyfan, maybe another option could be Enigmas. |

If these are truly Guilty Pleasures, will you nominate your favorite title as something "a friend told me about?"

Just for Fun: Guilty Pleasures it is!
And for the record, I have read a few books I normally wouldn't have on recommendation by friends. Like, 80% of the New Leaf titles, for instance! |

I'm fine with this revised title. I know we are trying to be super open to interpretation, but I really am shooting for this to be a way for us to read something actually translated. I know I am a broken record, but we are very, very Anglo-centric and I thought this might help.

Oh yes, the Lost in translation is a good one! Off to see what of our authors is translated
