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."

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Jilli (and anyone else), have you started Heartless yet? I started it last night, and I...have some doubts about the "adoption" plan. But I'm still all aflutter over New!Book.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I caved and pre-ordered the Kindle version. Which means I'll also be buying the paperback at some point (I hate it when series don't match on my shelves), but I get to read it NOW.

Interview with Gail Carriger.

I is dumb. I hadn't realized that she was parodying specific types of 19th century literature.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I just read that, sumi. I didn't know either, and it will totally inform my re-reads.

Did you see the cover for her next book?! SHINY!
