Welcome!

Welcome to Code & Prose, the only book club in the world that (we think) reads fiction related to web development.

Book cover

Title: The Web Designer
Author: Paul McFedries
Pages: 1,576
Summary: At High Falutin High, the arts high school in her home town, Daisy Fontana fell in love. Not with a boy, or even with a girl, for that matter, but with something altogether more interesting: web design. But when she graduated and moved to the city to find a job, she knew everything about HTML, but nothing about life. Will the town eat her alive, or will she survive and rise to the top of the cutthroat world of coding websites? Daisy Fontana is a nerd heroine for our times, and The Web Designer tells her gripping tale.

Questions to ponder: Can Daisy code, or what? Does the book contain too much HTML, or not enough? Why is it so hard for nerds to date?
