OMG. hilarious.
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."
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.”
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
No, definitely not Sookie.
Hummm... A Discovery of Witches? I have that on my Nook but haven't started it yet

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.
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?
Miss Marple totally does.
Miss Marple rules.
Looks like it was, in fact, A Discovery of Witches.
