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 know! I want to leave for Italy tomorrow.
Yes!
Wouldn't that be great to have a buffista excursion there?
Yes!
Have fun storming the castle!
Better than Deadline? I thought it started a bit slow, and then it was AWESOME!!!!
You were totally street marketing for Seanan. I threw Feed at Dan, and was like "Bruce. Fucking. Campbell. In-jokes. And zombies."
Bruce Campbell is totally a freebie on his Free Faithful Fuck List. No questions, no guilt, go ahead, darling, if you get the chance.
"Bruce. Fucking. Campbell. In-jokes. And zombies."
Ha! Whatever works.
ABE books' piece about embroidered book covers mentions that Jillian Tamaki has been commissioned to create embroidered covers for Black Beauty, The Secret Garden and Emma - coming out in October of this year.
I must at least see them and I may need to own them.
ETA: Ah - found them!
Just finished ADwD, somewhat unexpectedly in that I didn't look to see how many pages of appendices there were and was very surprised to find myself suddenly up to the Epilogue!
Re sumi's whitefont: ITA your NOOOOOO! Possibly Bran can do something through the trees, possibly Melisandre can heal him (though I am mistrustful of the Lord of Light's healings and resurrections) {as an aside, I am wondering if the one whose name may not be spoken is the Many Faced God (or one of his faces) and if so what that means}, shoot I had another thought but it seems to have fled. Something to do with Mormont's raven.
I had the sense that Rickon was on Skagos with the unicorns and the cannibals, though how he and Osha could have gotten there I can't imagine. I am desperate to know what he's been up to all this time! And relieved that Davos is alive, I like him a lot. Also had the impression that Brienne mentioned Sansa rather than Arya to Jaime, and that that is all a ruse forced on Brienne by Stoneheart, though that is just a lot of reading between the lines (last we saw Brienne she was being hanged, so I hope there will be eventual explanation!)
And finally, so glad the dragons are free! Even if they are terrorizing people.
