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."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
How is Ma's dialogue formatted in the book? Because there don't seem to be dialogue tags; she just speaks sometimes.
I think it's just regular, but don't actually remember. Oh, you can Look Inside on Amazon. Not sure if this link will work: [link]

Oh, huh! Yeah, it's just regular, they just decided to get different actors for the characters. Neat.
