I'm so torn. I always buy Bujold's books in hardcover on the release date, because her books have meant so much to me that I feel I owe it to her. But it's not coming out until November...
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

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."

Well, I'm sure she'd get the money for this: it's not a pirated copy or anything.

I'm 10 pages away from the end of A Brief History of Montmaray. Can someone give me the name of the 2nd book so I can request it from the library (without having to play compare/contrast games between the library site and Amazon to try to figure out order)? Thanks!

Epic, the next one is FitzOsbornes in Exile, and the last one is FitzOsbornes at War.

I'll have to wait until tonight to see it - work blocks emails and my phone's just a Dumbphone.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
That exploding sound is Tim reaching the Big Revelation in the 6th Skulduggery Pleasant book (i.e., Skulduggery is Lord Vile, which I honestly still don't know if I like or not [but regardless of whether I like it, it's HUGE]).
I keep making shit up and telling it to him, like "Clarabelle is Mevolent. I mean it!" (Of course, I do that with baseball, too, since he knows nothing of baseball and its rules. I really tried to convince him that, in the 8th inning --and ONLY the 8th inning -- if a player comes up to bat when there's 2 outs, if he gets a full count, he's allowed to punch the catcher in the head. He didn't believe me.)

Hey. New board.
I would like to read the remaining skulduggery pleasant books, but hate to split series half ebook half real book. Why no ebook releases?
