Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

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."

Looks like it was, in fact, A Discovery of Witches.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I read it...and can't remember what it was about. Quite bland.

Classics besides Jane Austen that pass the Bechdel Test:
The Awakening
Cold Comfort Farm
Gone with the Wind
The Group
Howards End
Jane Eyre
Les Misérables
Little Women
Rebecca
A Room with a View
I’m pretty sure a number of Zola and Balzac novels would pass the test.

Because books.
Wow, I haven't read The Group in years. I had forgotten about that book.

Hey. New board.
Does anyone know what book this is describing?
Definitely A Discovery of Witches. My wife loved the book inordinately.

Harry Potter people help me out?
I was listening to the audiobook of Prisoner of Azkaban last night and what's on my iPod ended with the chapter titled "Hermione's Secret", in which Harry & Hermione go back in time to save Buckbeak and Sirius. The very last bit ends with Sirius & Buckbeak flying away.
There is another chapter after that, isn't there?

Has to be. Harry says goodbye to Remus, for example.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I shall have to wait until I get home to see what's on my hard drive, or if somehow the file with that chapter in it got lost.
I was hoping to start Goblet of Fire during lunch--I guess I can still do that...

Karma is a cat, sleeping in my lap cuz it loves me. ~TS
There's also Snape flipping out like a mammal when he realizes Sirius has escaped. Love that part.
