Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere is available for $2.99 on the Kindle today - [link] No idea for how long.
I would be there right now.

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 look more rad than Lutheranism
Yeah, I think Skulduggery's family crest has been mentioned in at least 2 books.
Who is the newest Grand Mage? Erskine Ravel? I really don't want him to turn out to be bad.
I'm intrigued by Dexter Vex. I don't think his eye color was mentioned.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
No, I don't either. But I am worried. Because apparently everyone has secrets! Which probably doesn't need whitefonting but I have been surprised by the extent to which it is true.
I think it was Dexter Vex who was described as having "the most beautiful eyes" but no color specified, which I find either highly suspicious or clearly a red herring, depending on my mood.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I agree about Desmond -- throwing the purse-snatcher through the window is a little suspicious in terms of having magical ability, although not outside the realm of possibility for regular strength (like people who lift cars off their kids because they're having an adrenaline surge, etc., which seeing your wife get mugged could certainly cause). I can't really decide whether I like the idea of Desmond having magical abilities or not. Sort of yes, but sort of no.

Yeah, I don't know how I want that to turn out.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Any Cherie Priest fans? I've started Boneshaker and I'm just... not loving it as much as I'd hoped. I'm not very far in, though... maybe it gets better?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I didn`t love it either.

I started it and couldn't muster up the interest to finish it.

Okay, I feel validated. At least I only got it used? I bought the third one, too, b/c it's set in New Orleans. Maybe I'll put together a box of books to send to Powells.
