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 could give it to people who look like they need doorstops.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I was thinking about signing up and giving them away to people on the bus who didn't have books. But I am not sure I could actually talk to people and ask if they wanted a book.

I figure anyone on the bus who doesn't have a book, that's because they get carsick reading on the bus or they don't like to read.
There is a guy on my bus I'm watching read through CJ Cherryh. Right now he's just about to finish Cloud's Rider; I'm intrigued to see what he picks up next.

In Rochester we have a lot of underserved kids on the bus, because there aren't separate school buses for middle and high school. They just get bus passes for the city buses. So I was thinking more of them than the adults, but again, not sure I want to talk to them, because they also tend to be loud and obnoxious at times.

I'm not good at talking to strangers, so I figured I'd print out why they're getting a free book and why I think it's worth reading and stick it in the book.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I had no idea Robert Silverberg had had a thriving vintage sleaze career (NSFW).

I did but Kayo Books focuses on paperback original collectables so they have little zines on the subject. He's not the only science fiction writer that had a side line in porn, either.

Sumi, THANK YOU! I keep meaning to say thank you for pointing out the Deals of the Day, because I would never remember to even check, and I think at least a third of the paid content on my Fire is stuff you've pointed out.
