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."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

He looks like Mary Stuart Masterson in Some Kind of Wonderful.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

He does, Jesse!

I totally did not know it was Beiber until it was mentioned, as I can only recognize him by the hair!

The status is NOT quo.

I am so enjoying rereading Pride and Prejudice as I teach it to my seniors. I know not everyone here is a fan of Austen, but I just adore this book.

I haven't re-read Austen in ages. I think the England trip this year will be a good time to do that, and I'll probably be going to the Jane Austen center in Bath, again.

We're also going to Bronte Parsonage, which I've never been too. So there will probably be a re-reading of Jane Eyre too. Luckily, they're both on my kindle.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Pix,

I love the book too. I need to re-read it soon. The thing about Austen's prose is that it just flows so well. What a wonderful writer.

And so FUNNY! That’s the thing I’ve loved rediscovering the most.

Because books.

Pix, do you like Emma, too? I always feel like the odd girl out because that's the Austen I really love.

I'm all about the snark in Austen, which so many readers (not Buffistas of course) seem to miss.
