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."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
It's the most requested series at all his readings. He's starting Good Omens on Monday, by the way. Which is the most requested non-series book.

Oh, I love the Song of the Lioness.
I just listened to the first of the Alanna novels on audiobook on my road trip this week. I admit that it's not as great as I remember, and that it suffers by comparison with the Keladry books, where both the setting and the characterizations are more complicated. But then Pierce was just starting out, and she got more competent and nuanced with experience.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Anyone else read A Visit from the Goon Squad? What'd you think?
I picked up Something This Wicked This Way Comes on audiobook! I'm excited! I've never read any Bradbury besides "All Summer in a Day" and Fahrenheit 451, I think, and I don't really know anything about this book besides that there is something wicked and it is coming this way.

Paul Hecht.
(Also, I do know from a glance at the blurb that the something wicked is a carnival. But that's all I know.)

You'll have to let me know what you think of his voice. I haven't heard that recording.

(I wonder how difficult it would be to set my dad up with the equipment to record him reading Something Wicked This Way Comes ? Because that's the audio version I really want.)
