Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

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."

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

But I think her series is "Vintage Magic," as in a vintage dress shop, and she's psychic, not a witch.

This is the most annoying series ever. i cannot take the sewing related swearing puns.

Because books.

It looks a little too cute for me, in any case.

I was wondering if there was something ... less cutesy out there where the detective is a witch/Wiccan. There were the Bast mysteries, I know, but everything more current is, like, magical bakeries or magical cats and lots of vintage and/or sewing stuff.

So, Conseula, I loved Set This House in Order, by Matt Ruff! I'm definitely planning on reading the rest of his books now; I'm really impressed when writers can write such different books.

Amy, there's Dolores Stewart Ricco's series that starts with Circle of Five [link] .

The main character is part of a Wiccan group in Massachusetts. There are several books in the series.

He's really ridiculously talented. Everything he does is completely unlike everything else he does. I want to read Mirage, but I've got a real backlog of reading.

Still, I have great fondness for Fool on the Hill, which was his senior thesis at Cornell, because it's really romantic, it's a college novel, and it even has a very fannish woobie. (Not that I knew what a woobie was when I read it originally.)

I wish I knew who to thank for introducing me to him. Years ago, I was scrolling through my friendsfriends on LJ, and I came across a review of Bad Monkeys, and that was the inspiration for my List. That was the first book I wrote down somewhere to remind myself to read it because it sounded too awesome not to read. Thank you, random LJ person, for that review.
