Buffy ,'Showtime'


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."

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

I have only read the first book (I have been meaning to get around to the next two, but I just haven't gotten a hold of them) and I definitely agree that the first book had nothing very controversial, but it is a really fantastic book.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wow, really? I thought he was done with Patrick and Angela.

Hey, Dennis Lehane has a new book coming out next week - a follow-up to Gone, Baby, Gone.

I have it set to download to my Kindle as soon as it comes out. I can't wait to read it.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

P-C, you can tell your friend Seanan that I've become a fan - I've bought the three October Daye books, plus "Feed". She owes you a toaster.

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

She owes me SO many toasters! The other night, I got a text message from a friend:

I just lost 5 hours to october daye and now i don't have the next book. I blame you.

Thanks to everyone who's been reading and buying her books. It means a lot to me that you're supporting her based on my recommendation.

Actually, I think I may have liked "Feed" better. I thought it was going to be scary (so I didn't start it until I could read it in the daytime), but it was a lot less so than I'd expected.

I enjoy the October Daye books, but Feed blew me away. It helps that it's more my style. I'm looking forward to people's reactions to Deadline, as it's a bit different, but still zombietastic.
