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."

Now hold on. First of all, Dargan Knight is a great name. Second of all, you have to like that Wren takes her own virginity my mistake, right? I know I'm intrigued to find out, well okay, I'm completely uninterested, but it's still funny.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Set in South Carolina in 1826 this fun and sensual, the book is woven with love and deceit. Teaching two people the ultimate meaning of honesty, passion, and devotion.

Wow. And that's just the blurb - I shudder to think about the poor mangled grammar in the book itself.

Because books.

The grammar and lack of talent there sound like every book I've ever copyedited for iUniverse.

“Not dead yet!”

The "reviews" killed me. All five-star, all mentioning how well the writer captured the essence of the South Carolina river setting. Family, friends, or local writers' group? Hmm...

Shit's all sorts of different now.

How does one mistakenly take someone else's virginity? Was he trying to put it in her purse?

You need to reread, she took her own virginity by mistake.

Clearly, it was a dark room and he thought she was some cheap trollop with whom he could enjoy a casual romp and it wasn't until the glitteriness of her hoo-haw was revealed, that he realized he'd just breached the ultimate fortress o'lurrrrrrve.

Or something like that.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Only if Wren is the hero. Maybe the MAN is the hero! It's a misdirect!

Nope my mistake, I thought Wren was the hero and Dragan was a bad dude. Never mind.
