Short version: Glenn Danzig was a dick and called the audience names, and then the drummer leapt out into the audience and beat the hell out of an unassuming kid.
Kaylee: Can I? Zoe: Sure. He's out, though. Kaylee: He did this for me, once.

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."

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Our wings are not tired.
Whoa! That would be a way to become persona non grata.

There are SO MANY jokes just waiting to be made here.

Hmmm, let's see.
If his hairline recedes any further he'll look like one too.

Hey. New board.
I read "Feed" yesterday (the advantage of waiting in line for Shakespeare in the Park is lots of time for reading) and I find myself agreeing with almost everything P-C wrote earlier. It's awesome. Definitely the best work by Seanan McGuire / Mira Grant. So good, in fact, that I'm almost sad this is the one that will be associated with the pseudonym, rather than the perfectly fun but not nearly as mindblowing Toby Daye books.

Keep breathing!
You'd think after all these years hanging out around here that I would have picked up a book by our own Deborah Grabien before, but no, I've just now gotten my hands on Matty Groves and I'm LOVING it. Thank you, Deb, for a great read. Now I'm looking forward to enjoying more of your work.

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

Ha. Yeah. The Toby books will be going on for longer, though, so there's that. I hope they become more mindblowing.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Did people here say they had a hard time getting into Changeless? Because I did. I'm finally past the halfway point (and, uh, it's pretty obvious that Alexia is pregnant, right? [DON'T ANSWER THAT]), and I'm finally engrossed in it. But I can't put my finger on what made it so hard to get into this time.
Which is not to say that I won't read Blameless, because I will.
(Like a total geek, I have a list of what books are coming out when: Mockingjay in August, Blameless and the new Skulduggery Pleasant in September, and Behemoth [Scott Westerfeld's sequel to Leviathan] in October. And I am not a patient woman.)

I had the opposite experience. I got into it much faster than I got into Soulless since it went right into the plot.

It's possible that since I tried to start it when I was in the middle of oh-crap-my-antidepressant-isn't-working that I just couldn't concentrate.
