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."

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

The gesture? There are no fake page numbers on my kindle, only percentages. I've had my kindle for several years, so they may have changed it since then.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Books in my Kindle app have page numbers. I wonder why they did that differently?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You make a note of the page you're on, flip to the end of the chapter, and then Go To by page. Or you can bookmark where you are, I guess, if remembering the page number is above and beyond.

Why would you not do that?

And no bookmarking either?

You shoulda gotta Nook.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I think there is bookmarking, but I don't have the kindle in front of me right now. I like my kindle other than the page number thing, but I am perhaps a little too obsessed with know how many pages I have read, how many pages I have left, etc.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You can also use the gesture to go to the next chapter then click the back button on the menu bar to return to your pre flip location.

Huh! I never knew you could do that. THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING. Well, it changes a little.

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

Michael Chabon's new novel Telegraph Avenue is getting good reviews.

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

My Kindle has page numbers - is this only on some models? That's crazy!
