What Academy are we talking about here?
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

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 didn't love Boneshaker, and didn't get the hype. Very bland IMO.

Ginger, I know a lot of people who did, which is why I checked it out -- I generally trust my friends' taste, and if they liked it, there's a strong chance I will, too. And that's also why I was bummed to not like it.

I think it would have been a better book if it had stuck with the voice of the mother, but I liked the characters and the story, plus all the jury-rigged survival stuff.

Fun story about Cormac McCarthy copy editing books from physicists.

I thought Boneshaker was fun, but I like Cherie's urban fantasy novels better. (Bloodshot and ... I am blanking on the sequel.)
Audible just informed me there is a version of Dracula read by Alan Cumming and TIM CURRY. BRB, buying an audiobook.

Someone else get a copy of Timeless and finish reading it so I have someone to flail with!

I ordered it this morning, since my library doesn't have it, which is odd, because they had the first 3 books on their release date.
Anyway. SOON.
