   I think having a similar section in the forum that PA has called "Books and Miscellaneous Reviews" should be good enough (at least as a minimum), though I'm not 100% opposed to the idea.  I guess it wouldn't be too hard to manage since not many bands have novels/bios about them.  I wouldn't see the harm in including "unautorized" releases either because they often give a perspective that the official ones often neglect.  I read an unauthorized Judas Priest one that was rather interesting since the current band members rarely talk about former band members and their contributions.

	I believe this has been suggested in PA at some point and gotten a lot of support: would it be possible to add a new category to the discography pages for books? I'm reading Mick Wall's Iron Maiden biography Run to the Hills at the moment, and I've read a lot of other biographies that could use a review and some exposure.
