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."
Holy shit, I *really* did. (Okay, I may have thought the last big fight scene, with the music choreography, was a little cheesy. Or, rather, the choreography was a little cheesy. But I get it. She's a ballroom dancer. It's cool.)
But I really, really liked it. I want to know EVERYTHING about her family.

Ha, it totally was, but I agree that it's cool. Mostly I was just wanting to see that scene in the television show (come on, it's just begging to be a television show).
(Also I want to see the TV show because Seanan wants Alona Tal for Sarah.)
But I really, really liked it.
That's great to hear! I really liked it, but I felt like there was something missing, although I couldn't put my finger on it. And of course I found the romance aspect mostly eye-rolly (it works a bit better for me in the Toby books).
I want to know EVERYTHING about her family.
Great, because Seanan wants to tell you! She has the series mapped out (not in specifics, obvs) to, like, books nine and ten, I think, which are about Verity's grandmother's adventures in the underworld, based on the titles (she plans to switch POV characters every two books).
I LOVED Discount Armageddeon. Awesome book.
Yay! And it juuuuust made it on the New York Times Bestseller list, too, so I hope that means DAW will pick up more books.
I linked it in my LJ post way back when, but you can also read "One Hell of a Ride" for free. It's the story of how a couple of Verity's ancestors met.
I'm enjoying Discount Armageddon , too.

Cool. I want to read Antimony's POV.
And I *so* love the Aeslin mice. And Istas.
Istas is awesome. As are the Aeslin mice. Hail!
HAIL!
So if I really like the Toby Daye books but didn't much care for One Hell of a Ride, will I like Discount Armageddon?
Don't look at how high my TBR pile reaches, that doesn't enter into this.
I want to read Antimony's POV.
I think Alex's books are after Verity's. I don't remember when Antimony's are. I look forward to Sarah's books; I imagine they'll be hilarious.

"One Hell of a Ride" is okay. Discount Armageddon is much better. If what you didn't like about it was that there were crazy demons and shit, then that could be a problem, but I doubt that was why you didn't care for it.
