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."

Heh. I flew to Hawaii today for work, and was annoyed I couldn't read Mockingjay on the plane (left too early to buy a copy) so I stopped on my way to the hotel and bought it to read poolside. Just finished!! Will have to reread though, for more detail.

A little way in I was all "seriously? What?" and then it got better. And then it got worse. And them way better in the very hunger games fucked up way. I'm still not sure about the end of the ending (y'know, last page or so the stuff) but the main plottiness I was all "oooh".

Mockingjay left me really depressed. I didn't hate it though.

Darn UPS. They left me a notice rather than a book.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Darn UPS. They left me a notice rather than a book.

And yet they double park their trucks everywhere impeding my commute.

Bastards of Brown!

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

The notice left you really depressed. You didn't hate it though.

Yesterday UPS didn't even make a second attempt and I had my signed notice on my door and everything. Fingers crossed that they bother to attempt to deliver today.

John Hodgeman tweets that he is reading A Game of Thrones and somebody tells GRRM who posts it on his lj leading to this fun comment from a fan:

"Hi, I'm a Lannister."

"And I'm a Stark."

"I'm bloodthirsty and ruthless."

"And I'm noble and- AAAAIIIIGGH!"

Which I've spoiler fonted for ah, fairly non-specific spoilage.
