Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

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."

Cliffhanger that'll come up in the third book for sure. I expect we'll find out everything that happened to all the others while Diana and Matthew were away. I can't WAIT to see the Gallowglass/Diana reunion. He was my favorite new character.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

The thing I hate is that there isn't even a date announced, tentatively, for when the new book will arrive. Bah humbug!

I know! I dragged a little finishing the last 100 pages or so 'cause I knew it would be THE END for at least a year.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

So sad, Consuela. I really love her books--truly smart and big-hearted comfort reading.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Hrm, so I'm seeing these ads for a new TV show called _Revolution_ on NBC (amidst Olympics coverage) and it looks/sounds remarkably like a treatement of SM Stirling's Emberverse books but with different characters and a locale that is entirely written off in the books....am I imaginging this? The wiki page for the show has a link to the Emberverse series but doesn't note how they are related.
