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.
I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

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."

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.

Teppy, I had the same thoughts, in a no, no, no! -dreading sort of way. So I was absolutely thrilled that Raven became a vampire! (Of course I was.) But besides my obvious biases, I was really glad that the author didn't take the expected, here's your After-School Special Message -sort of ending to the series.
Hmmm. Maybe I'll reread it tonight. It was so cute!

I have read Shiver. I liked it well enough but not enough to wait and then buy the new book that came after.
I did, however, love her Scipio Races which was amazing. Highly highly highly recommend.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
So I liked Greenwitch more than the first two books! I don't think I'll end up loving the series, but I'm hoping I can eke out a general like now.

Jo Walton catalogs (and, best of all, links) to stories that have pulled titles from Blake's Tyger and Marvell's Mistress. I like this so much, I'm trying to ignore the 1st paragraph typo that I'm sure they'll fix soon. [link]

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I've joined goodreads! I don't suppose there's an easy way to find friends without letting it search my email or connecting to fb?

Friending almost any Buffista will give you a list of the rest of us, I think. (If you click on someone's profile, you'll be able to see their friends in the righthand sidebar.)
