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."
Anyone here reading NK Jemisin's books yet?
I read the first one and liked it enough to get the second, but it's buried in my backlog. I met Nora at Wiscon a few years back: she is quite marvelous, I must admit.
Right now I'm halfway through UK LeGuin's Powers, which is the last of the Chronicles of the Western Shore. These are wonderful, btw, although the first one (Gifts) doesn't have much of a storyline.
OH! I have Powers, I think - I should look for it.
What's Wiscon? (sorry I'm slow today). The second is very different - I liked it, though the first has a great pacing.
I read the first Jemisin book and JUST got the second one.
Good news bad news - Borders is closing the two stores in town (bad news); everything's on sale (good news ... except for my wallet).
Wiscon is a feminist SF con held in Madison over Memorial Day every year. I've been a few times, along with Betsy & Nutty.
Wow. That sounds like fun.
I read the 2nd Jemisin book thinking it was the first one and really enjoyed it. So now I'm reading the first one.
FYI - the second Rothfuss book is on shelves tomorrowish. At least, Amazon is shipping my copy now.
Also the fourth Toby Daye book.
In my hands!!
I saw the new Toby Daye at the bookstore and came home to order the e-book, but I can't have it until tomorrow. That is not how instant gratification is supposed to work!
Wiscon does sound like fun.
Now I'm on to 'Mark Reads Harry Potter' and enjoying the hell out of that
I've read that and the transition into fanboy is kinda adorable.
