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."

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

The world of The Scar is mind-searingly fierce and crazy-beautiful.

Yes, that's a great description.

"Wolfen" and "The Hunger" were very fun reads. Guess Streiber wants to continue pretending he is a non-fiction writer and that "Communion" is fact - even though I think he admitted otherwise in interviews. (citation needed.)

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

The Hugo Awards were given. I am sad Mira Grant didn't win for Feed.

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

Me too. Connie Willis had two books! That's unfair!

Mary Robinette Kowal won for her short story, though, and Tara won for Chicks Dig Time Lords, so that was cool.

My top choice was the winner in 4 categories, so I am pleased.

Wow, I had no idea. Jude Deveraux scammed by a psychic.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Connie Willis had two books!

It was one book in two volumes and I'm glad they treated it as such. I also loved it.

I really should read Connie Willis at some point, given how much I love time travel mayhem.
