It's about tequila, right?
It's been a while since I've read it but...sure!
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

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'd be interested in a Goodreads group for at least some of them, megan.

I'll add you to the list!
It will be a private group as I would have done on Facebook. I think because you can have different threads it will be easier for people who just want to read 1 or 2.

I need to sign up for Goodreads, but I feel like it will take me forever to catalog ALL THE BOOKS I OWN AND EVERYTHING I HAVE EVER READ.

Are you on shelfari or librarything? Because you can import stuff into Goodreads.

I'm not expecting to ever get that done, P-C. I doubt anyone is, except members who sign up at thirteen.
Weird that To the Lighthouse isn't available on Gutenberg. Only Night and Day, The Voyage Out, Jacob's Room, and Monday or Tuesday are. But wouldn't they all be in the public domain, rather than just some of them?

Not if they'd renewed the copyright.
edit: And the Australian Gutenberg site has different rules about copyright, so different books are available--not that I'd ever suggest ways that people could circumvent the laws of our fair nation.

Nope. How are they different?

I guess I could at the very least put what's on my bookshelf and add books I know I've read when I remember them. Of course, my ratings would be really wonky, like some of my old Netflix ratings.

Well, I was originally on Shelfari, but found Goodreads UI and other features to be way more useful for me.
I liked LibraryThing, but (I believe) they limit the number of books on free accounts.
I absolutely love Goodreads (and as some people know, it's the first place I applied when I was job hunting. It's still my dream job, but they employ like 20 people total). I use it for tracking my reading but I also use the listopia lists a lot when making book salon lists.
