No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

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."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Now I'm reading Cowboy Feng's Space Bar and Grille while I wait for the next Sookie Stackhouse novel to come through inter-library loan. Brane taking break nao, kthxbye.

I enjoyed that. Brust was not happy with it! (Though he may have changed his mind later) curious to see which view you take.

Hey, is Mockingjay out soon? It's supposed to be out this month, right? Is it ALREADY out?

I'm #19 on the library list so I should get it right away.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

i'm # 496 on my library's list *sob* Strangely, as of today, the listing says there is 1 copy (and a zillion more ordered....)

I am only #19 because I obsessively checked the catalog until they listed it.

I did it months ago--before Megan Walker! But my library put it in forever ago, so I'm #182! Of 92 copies, but I still may end up buying it and canceling my hold.

Hey. New board.

I'm number 444. Of a jillion copies, though, thanks NYC.

I may just Kindle it, though. Except I got the second one from the library, and I think it might be weird to have books one and three on my kindle, but not the second one.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'm #19 on the library list so I should get it right away.

Dang, my library's Web site doesn't show where I am on the wait list.

The third Gail Carriger book (Blameless) is out Sept 1., IIRC, and I keep checking my library's catalog, but they don't have it in yet. I may just need to order it.

Also, new Skulduggery Pleasant is out Sept. 1, though I think only in the UK/Australia, not the US.
