Do any of you all have Goodreads accounts? Or is LibraryThing more popular in these parts? I'm thinking I should really use those sites more.

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."

Because books.
I started at LibraryThing but I use Goodreads now. I want to keep up the LibraryThing for myself, sort of, but I can't seem to get motivated to do it.

I have a hilariously empty LibraryThing account, but I'm here on Goodreads. I keep trying to add to it but I KNOW I've read more books than I have listed, which is frustrating, Plus I made a point to add books even if I'm embarrassed that I've read them, which makes it less fun.

I put up some old favorites, but I really mostly use Goodreads for tracking current reading and, more importantly, what I want to read.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Speaking of Goodreads and LibraryThing - here's my obligatory Allyson pimpery: if you have accounts on either or both, own a copy of Sam and love it, please make a note of it!
Your local indie publisher and royalty-starved yet awesome Buffista author will thank you.

Sox, I bought Machine of Death on the Amazon day (and used the buffista affiliate link!) but haven't had a chance to read it yet, so remind me and I'll loan it to you.

Thanks to the people who added me on Goodreads; I have friends there now! I also just made a feeble attempt to re-rate all the books I've read - I hand out five stars like candy. I just really like a lot of what I read.
Random question inspired by some books I was looking at in the library today: Is anyone a Discworld fan? I've read Good Omens, which I love, but that's only half Pratchett, and then we started reading Monstrous Regiment, one of the Discword books, in a class once but we didn't finish.
I think they would be books I'd very much enjoy but there's just so damn many of them, I wouldn't know where to begin.
