Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

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."

Because books.

I have still never read any Heyer. As a former romance editor (who acquired traditional Regencies! no sex!), I should be ashamed.

This is when I wish I had an e-reader already, too.

You don't have to have an e-reader to read Kindle books - there's a free app for computers, smartphones, tablets, etc.

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

Same with Nook! Don't forget the Nook!

This page I made for Kindle users at work has direct links to the apps, Lendle for e-book sharing, and free e-book sites (Project Gutenburg, etc.) You could read free ebooks for 10 years and not run out of them. [link]

So if I don't have a Kindle, I just use the web app for PC?

Yup!

I got the kindle app for my phone, but I admit I'm far more likely to read off the actual Kindle.

And damn, I just bought four Heyer novels. Woops!

That's awesome! Wow, I can think of a dozen free books I'd like through Gutenberg, too.

Okay, that is COOL. I'm already done and have four books!

This has been an I Love Technology day, man. Thanks again, flea.
