That's the binding my school library had Gone-Away Lake in! One of my most favorite books ever.
You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

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."

The Philosophers Club. Baby-Belle Tuckertown and the summer cats. Mrs. Brace-Gideon. The Gulper. Julian saying that Foster's two interests were outer space and inner pie.

And the names! Sophronisba!
I'm afraid to re-read for fear it won't be as wonderful. Must check the kids' section of the used bookstore.

I just read the new John Green book. I am utterly blown away.

Because books.
Mine will be here on Thursday. Am I going to spend the weekend crying?

It's not a tearjerker, really. I mean except for the kids dying from cancer part.
His characters are just funny and witty and wonderful. Totally enjoyed it (read it yesterday). I need to re-read it today.
