Buffy: Dancing with you is way better than trying to hook up with some good-looking guy. Xander: I think I liked it more when you were kicking me in my puffy groin.

'Get It Done'


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."

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.

But there are no page numbers.

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

And no bookmarking either?

You shoulda gotta Nook.

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!

hip deep in pie

I think one to two things I've read on my Kindle had page numbers, the rest were percentages

Karma is a cat, sleeping in my lap cuz it loves me. ~TS

I think it depends on the generation. I have a first-gen, and it doesn't have page numbers, just "locations", which is usually something like 52395--i.e. impossible to remember.
