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."

No Dracula, no Something Wicked This Way Comes. I'm safe.

And I'd want this cover for Dracula: [link]

Must get Pete to scan the photo of Mr. Bradbury holding Clovis.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm trying to work out who wears a baby T of Lolita. Because I really really want one. But? It seems rife with...rifeness.

My friend forgot to bring her copy of the Hunger Games to lend me. But it's all ok, because I didn't get called to work today anyway and so had no time to read.
Has anyone here ever read Winter's Tale by Mark Helprin? I read it recently and was sort of blown away by how amazing it was.
