My women's group just watched the movie together, so I was thinking about reading to book so I could talk about it, but I am mostly meh.

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 got it signed by him (well, a galley) at BEA, and he was so charming, so completely what you'd expect for the author of that book. I've only skimmed so far, because I was too busy to read it at the time, but what I read I loved. My mom has it now. And the cover is spectacular.

It's a wonderful book. I love the narrator. I also love how this is sort of a Great Gatsby, a decade later. Nice to read a Great Depression book that isn't.
I cannot believe he's an investment banker!
