Buffy ,'Selfless'


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."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I was a mite confused but thought maybe it was somehow relevant because of F U, Penguin. Somehow.

I just finished Timeless ! I think I know what Jilli is gleebling about!

I liked it more than the last two, to my surprise. I thought I was just reading out of inertia (although I do enjoy the books), but I felt an unexpected fondness for the characters and the world.

EEEEEEEee! IVY IS A VAMPIRE QUEEN!

Pete is finally reading it, and when he read the bit about the play, he said "Oh, that's why you're happy, because Ivy played a vampire queen in that ridiculous production". Ha, no! It's better than that!

Also, OMG BIFFY AND LYALL! I want to draw sparkly hearts around them.

I also want more of Lord Akeldama's adventures in parenting, because I love how he dotes on Prudence.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I was sorry Ivy didn't stay in Egypt, because I like the idea of "Ivy, Queen of the Desert." Vampire millinery will never be the same.

Prudence was a delight. I also really enjoyed all the science!! Well, you know "science"!! I appreciate a scientifically curious heroine.

I want all the stories of Ivy's reign as the Vampire Queen of London! I especially want to know what Lord Akeldama's reaction to it.

I just read a sneaked copy of the final Montmaray book and cried.

'suela, I would love to read such a copy! I have just finished the second book and WANT MOAR NOW!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Heyyy, juliana!!!!

Also: Betsy elsewhere pointed out a new Korval book was out in eARC (those who read Lee and Miller)...and I went to read the first few chapters only to realize I didn't have the book before THAT! I got so confused while they were reprinting earlier books in omnibuses that I didn't realize a new one had come out already. Of course, then I decided I wanted to re-read the preceeding books, only to find I can't FIND my copy (which I'm almost certain is in hardback) of Fledgeling. Grrr. I need to re-alphabetize my library, and I KNOW some of it is missing. eBooks are confusing me as to what I own and don't, too.
