I've read Mirka, and loved it.
Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

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."

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
The Post reviewed Jean Auel's latest recently; it began:
Sometimes it feels as though entire hominid species have evolved in less time than it takes to read “The Land of Painted Caves”

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist
Does anyone know what book this is describing?
“I'll give you a hint...it's about a Vampire and Witch (not a young adult novel) and they talk incessantly about wine, tea, horseback riding and yoga (kinda makes me want to barf). There's a lot of historical stuff thrown in, which makes it pretty interesting at times. But, yeah, I kinda can't believe I am still reading it.”

Because books.
I have no clue, megan.
In other news, a piece on The Bechdel Test and classic literature.
The comments list a few novels that pass, but I'm trying to come up with more.

megan, the Sookie Stackhouse books maybe? I have never read one so it's a shot in the dark

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
No, definitely not Sookie.

That could be. I only read the sample of that book, which I didn't like. It is about a vampire and a witch though. I didn't like it.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Is Aslan a man? If not, then The Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe. Also, I think mny mystery books might- Miss Marple, Nancy Drew, Trixie Belden, if only because they are discussing the mystery?
