Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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."

When are we starting that "read the books you own" thing? In January? Because boy oh boy do I have to get through these stacks.

Well, that's when I'm starting.

Because books.

Excellent. I'll ride on your stylish coattails.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Me three! Maybe that`ll give me time to LibraryThing it up before then and I can do it all organized like.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's my thinking, too. My Library needs Thinging in a bad way. Though if I don't manage the organization part, I know I can rummage around once a month and find something I should have read by now (possibly simply by looking to see what is on my nightstand), so I will do the reading part regardless.

I am so tempted to ask if I can use this as a tag.

It's so hard to part with my Winchesters ...

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

They will never leave you, Amy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Well, being compelled is compelling.
