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."

So, are the mugs, plates, etc, the Channel Isles?

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

I'm just wondering how Agincourt is going to go down. In a hail of toothpicks, I expect.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Okay, I like conflicted-spy Tally more than regular Tally. This story is interesting, and I am not entirely sure where it's going to go and what the general arc of the series is. I feel like Mark! Am I unprepared for shit getting real?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Shit gets real. Not Mockingjay real, but that's okay, because not every book needs to be a joyless death march of bleakness with PTSD sprinkles on top.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Mmm. PTSD sprinkles.

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire

I feel like you just described A Song of Ice and Fire!

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Just the Collins books. Has anyone read Gregor the Overlander? Also grim, or so I hear.

The woman who wrote Goodnight, Moon left ownership of her copyright to the 9-year-old son of a neighbor.

This... did not turn out that well.
