Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

HELP! I'm looking for two young adult books that were historical fiction. They were about two sisters running a confectionary during the Great Plague in London. Any ideas?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Were we aware of this? (especially Jilli)

Awwww! It's for Soulless! The book I nabbed at the F2F and fell in love with!
(This also fills me with envy, because WOW, do I want to do some sort of promotion with a GCS paper doll set.)

Hey, guess what I scored at Kayo Books today?
Anubis Gates by Tim Powers and Infernal Devices by K.W. Jeter - two of the earliest steampunk books. (Not counting Verne and Welles, et al.)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I can't find my copy of the Anubis Gates--I thought it would come to light when we were packing to move, but it didn't. I'll have to replace it, and I believe there was a sequel, too.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Oooh, I read Anubis Gates b/c of Jilli's rec (I think), but I didn't know there was a sequel. Must check it out.
