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."

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

Great character descriptions from science fiction and fantasy books.

not your mom's socks.

So, HKF has picked her Halloween costume already: big boots, a long light blue dress, and a frying pan.

She spent our latest bike ride up the Delaware and Raritan Towpath shouting "Crivens!" and "Beware the Grein Haide!"

Excellent choice!

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Um, I don't get it. What book is that from?

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

It's from the first Tiffany Aching book The Wee Free Men by Mr. Pratchett.

Well, that would be a good place to start. I always recommend the audiobook by Stephen Briggs as it's extremely funny.

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

I always recommend the audiobook by Stephen Briggs as it's extremely funny.

Now THAT is something I should buy for Canada this year.

(I've also purchased a 48-part lecture series on the history of China, but my fellow passengers may prefer Pratchett...)
