This book was such a delightful romp that discussed serious topics like censorship and authoritarian governments, but did it through a pretty ridiculous lens of letters being made illegal. I very much appreciated it. What was not mentioned, however, is my personal favorite pangram: Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow. No proper nouns, the sentence makes sense, and it sounds way cooler than the foxy-dog sentence.
