I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

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.

Dana, I have that in hardback, and I haven't been able to get into yet, although I would really like to. If you want to wait a bit, you can borrow it. Or you could borrow it now, if you send it back.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, that's very kind, Amy, but probably not worth the effort. I am just always tempted by cheap things. I'll see if my library has it.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I have - and have read - One Salt Sea, Seanan Maguire's newest book. I hadn't realized it was out, but spotted it in the bookstore.

Yay!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Thanks for sharing that, Sox. Made a wonderful start to my week.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Loaned Rosemary & Rue to a coworker last Friday. I found it on my chair this morning with a note saying she finished it and has ordered the sequels for her kindle. P-C, does Seanan have any sort of toaster incentive program?

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

I wish! I would have a kitchen full of toasters.

Art Crawl!!!

P-C, you could then start giving out your own toasters.

I read One Salt Sea pretty much yesterday and I am dismayed to have to wait a year until the next one. (Is it wrong that I'm kind of glad about the loss of Connor? I really couldn't see what she saw in him - particularly when Tybalt is RIGHT THERE , you know?

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

I gotta grab that one. I don't suppose anyone has it on Nook, and it's a Lend Me?
