Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

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."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Any thoughts?

Misfortune by Wesley Stace. Sort of light, but well written and decidedly goth and sexually ambiguous.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

My professor never told me Edith Wharton wrote porn.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Whoa. It's pretty hot as porn goes, I have to admit, but "Mr. Palmato" is her bleedin' FATHER, isn't he? Colour me wigged.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Somebody on my flist shared this, and I think there are people here who would appreciate it.

Scans from St. Nicholas, a 19th century British children's magazine

Just a beautiful set of vintage engravings and drawings.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I'm about halfway through Kiki Strike.

I agree with Steph that it is a very Buffista book, At the moment I am concerned enough about what is happeneing that I needed to pause.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

At the moment I am concerned enough about what is happeneing that I needed to pause.

What's happening right now? (I couldn't pause -- I read through it in almost one sitting, because I needed to know what happens.)

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Well they blew up the water main , everything they knew about Kiki was a lie and Kiki is gone. And they sold the reverse pided pieper thing. I had actually expected something like this to happen, but it came just as I ws getting off the BART trainand somehow I have avoiding picking it up again. I am actually fairly certin I will finish it tonight (if my cold doesn't put me to sleep) but I just find that I am very anxiious for the girls. Reading would resolve things, but something else might happen.
