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."

Yeah, to go over 200 books on LT, apparently you gotta shell out.

To add Shelfari to FB, go to your shelf, then "more" then "My Widgets"

Go to the text under the graphic where it says "Does it work on my blog / web site?" The Shelfari widget works on most blogs and social networks, including Blogger, LiveJournal, MySpace, Typepad, Xanga, Vox, Wordpress.com and more. It also works on Facebook. To create a widget enter your site URL in the text box on the right side and press the Get Started button."

Hit the Facebook hotlink, then it will get you all connected. Then you add FB friends to share with.

Are we FB friends, Megan? (I feel like a tool just asking that!)

No I haven't friended anyone that I thought might not know my real name. I will anon.

Hmm. You can add up to 6 friends to the Shelfari thing, so I will ask here: anyone who is on FB with me also do Shelfari?

Cause I'd like to actually use my 6 people wisely.

Thanks Erin, I am new to FB and a luddite at heart so I sometimes feel like an unfrozen caveman lawyer when it comes to these things.

move out and draw fire

I've got a 5ft shelf (music and video, as I couldn't limit myself to books, sue me) and a Library Thing. Will try Shelfari and link to FB.

Timelies, all!

I have two new books from the library now: Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger (author of The Time Traveler's Wife) and Stephen King's new one, The Dome. I started HFS first because I'm dreading shlepping King's heavy tome on my Metro commute. Now that I'm about half-way through HFS, I must say that Niffenegger has a lovely voice. I am completely enthralled.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I have got to read my copy of Her Fearful Symmetry. I bought it the week it came out, but got distracted by life and haven't gotten around to reading it yet.

Keep breathing!

It is a great escape book. I keep worrying I'll miss my stop or get robbed on the train, because once I open the book I find it very hard to pry myself out of it again.
