'Destiny'
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."
One I know what only published in Brittain (only one mag) where Millie is confused for another person in one of her other books continuities.
Don't you hate it how you can go instantaneously from knowing nothing about something to wanting it desperately?
WANT WANT WANT!
Acorn Books has about two weeks left and every time I go in there I see stuff that Buffistas would want.
Lots of old Aviation books for DXM.
Classic fantasy for Micole and others. I had to put back a first edition of L. Sprague DeCamp and Fletcher Pratt's The Castle of Iron.
But I did pick up a first edition, signed copy of Fritz Leiber's The Knight and Knave of Swords.
So much stuff Betsy would like it's impossible to catalog. Lots of Victorian era editions. Whole shelves of rare Sherlock Holmes stuff. Shelves of rare Oziana - including the Baum Bugle.
Also picked up an xmas present for JZ's mom. A first edition of S.J. Perelman's Listen to the Mockingbird. Cover and interior illustrations by Hirschfeld. Lots of illustrations. Like every third page. So cool.
They're also auctioning off their furnishings and they've got gorgeous old glass fronted, wooden book cabinets of many sizes. Lecterns. Reading chairs with wide arms for your teacup.
The too-far-away book and furnishings porn makes me So. Sad.
You are So. Mean.
Whole shelves of rare Sherlock Holmes stuff.
Glurble.
Glurble.
Seriously the owner is a major Holmes fanatic. They even have zines of Holmes fanfic. Bakerstreet Irregulars. All kinds of stuff.
You're not helping, Hec.
Cool.
I just poked around their website and found some stuff, but it's not nearly as nice as rummaging through a used book store.
I doubt they'd mail me those bookshelves anyway.
