Reading the English version... I am curious as to how this book has been translated. How much has been changed in the translation from the German? For example, in the original; Is Lottie English? Or is she still German Is the poem that is her dream door's protection still a German poem? Is it still set in London?

Her articles were pitiless and malicious. And admittedly, also very entertaining." also had a "she outed gay schoolmates before they could do it themselves".
I don't know why it was censored, and if there are other similar censorships, but there's that. I personally think that to judge a book you need to read the whole book, and form your own opinion based on the whole thing, negative and positive stuff all together.
edit: Ok, apparently, in the Tittle Tattle blog entries they totally censored the bits where a certain Alex Pritchard is called bulldozer because she's fat and gets made fun of, in more than one blog post. I'm comparing the english and italian version of this book and the english version is missing the most "controversial" bits, let's call them that. I dunno, this feels like unnecessary censorship to me... (less)
