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."
I went on a big Tey binge a year or two ago. Can't believe I had never heard of her before.
Brat Farrar is my favorite, along with The Daughter of Time.
I still haven't read Brat Farrar, partly because the old Mystery adaptation is still in my brain.
