Buffy ,'Selfless'
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."
One of the weird perks of being a semi-celebrity: new authors send me copies of their books! Delilah Dawson sent me Wicked as They Come, and Kate Lock sent me an ARC of God Save the Queen. So I'm set for silly genre reading for the week.
And speaking of silly genre reading: Come ON, who has read the last Parasol Protectorate book! I need to geeble more about it!

Aw, damn it! It's sitting on my bedside table. I'll start it tonight.
It will be a couple weeks till I get around to it!

I have! if you start geebling I will try to join in.
-t, do you want to wait until at least Teppy is done with it? Because I'm pretty sure she will join in on the general flailing of OMG BIFFY AND LYALL!
I thought that whitefont might be the most flail-worthy thing! Yeah, I don't mind waiting.
I glare in the general direction of your whitefont (which I didn't read).
Definitely starting it tonight!
Then I will wait to whitefont squeal about the other thing that made me all flailyhands.

U.S. sues Apple, publishers over pricing of electronic books
The U.S. government filed an antitrust lawsuit against Apple Inc. and various major book publishers Wednesday, saying the publishers conspired with Apple to raise retail electronic-book prices to limit competition.
The lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Manhattan said the effort was a response to the success Amazon had in selling e-books for just under $10.
I just wish ebooks had a secondary market where I could buy them used.
I wish they had a secondary market where I could SELL them used!
