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."

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

Wow, lots of titles taken from the "Seven Ages of Man" speech in As You Like It.

Dear Book Writers, you may not allude to "All the world's a stage" until people stop using "Halleluah" in movies and TV shows. This should be a natural brake on both of you.

Has anyone read the new Jennifer Crusie book, Maybe This Time? I just started it, and I like it. It feels a little darker than her previous books.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

NEW JENNIFER CRUSIE?!?!? Woohoo!!!

Because books.

This is the one she started eons ago and put away when she started writing with Bob whathisface. I'm interested to get it, because I really didn't like the books she did with him.

I have those but haven't read them because I heard so many good things about them. This is more of her usual style with added ghosts. The one thing I am not liking about it is that the main couple do not spend much time together in the first half of the book, more time thinking about each other. I'm hoping things will pick up a bit in the second half.

Aims, I was thinking of you especially when I posted. I knew you would want to know about a new Crusie.
