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."

I do adore Aralorn and Wolf though.

They're a very neat couple.

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

Has anybody read Daphne Du Maurier's short stories?

Has anybody read Daphne Du Maurier's short stories?

Yes, I read the original Don't Look Now collection for my classic horror book salon. I really only liked "Don't Look Now" and "A Border-Line Case." The other three stories were a bit of a bore. However, that new edition has a few more stories, including "The Birds," which I've read elsewhere and liked.

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

Okay, but have you read this cult classic about the Opera?

Man, I just love scrolling through the NYRB Classics catalog.

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

And, not on the NYRB list, but one of my all-time favorite comic novels and somehow little known: My Search for Warren Harding by Robert Plunket.

See the customer reviews.

No, but that reminds me that I need to order my opera tickets for this fall.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh I love teh interwebs. I've been trying to remember a book that scared the crap out of me as a kid and finally found it: "The Elementals" by Michael McDowell (who also wrote "The Amulet"). I loved those spooky trade paperbacks. Anyone else read it?
