University of Regina is going to have a Game of Thrones course.
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

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."

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
What with being out of town and such, I hadn't gotten a copy of Blackout. Went by the bookstore to pick one up and it wasn't out - not on display with the new books, not on the shelf with the others. I asked a nice bookstore employee who checked and said it should be out with the best sellers (yay!) but on checking, they'd all been sold. So he went "downstairs" and pulled out a bunch to put out on the shelf. With the best sellers.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Woo! Come back to chat about it when you are done! I will be slowly tapping out a review in the next days -- hopefully I can get it done before surgery. (I asked for a local, but it has to be a general, dammit.)

For Parasol Protectorate fans - seemingly there is (or will soon be) a manga version of Soulless.

Has anyone read the YA book Shiver, about a young woman and a young werewolf? I read it yesterday and really liked it and am thinking of buying the sequel today!

Because books.
I haven't yet, but I gave it to the neighbor kid, who loved it, and I just loaned it to my niece.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I picked up a copy at the library sale and currently have it about 3 books down the to-be-read pile. Glad to see the rec.

For Parasol Protectorate fans - seemingly there is (or will soon be) a manga version of Soulless.
The Soulless manga is out (and it's adorable!), and the manga for Changeless should be out in late November.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Jilli -- I read the last Vampire Kisses book! I honestly didn't expect it to end the way it did. I was totally expecting some soul-searching conversation about how being a vampire is not what it seems, etc., and that Raven would end up choosing to stay human and end up with Trevor.
It was very sweet, and a great distraction last week.
