By the way, I bought the Alice in Wonderland one for my SIL last year and it was really well done.
I can handle the Oz Full Monty. I mean, not 'handle' handle.

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."

Always Anti-fascist!
Gigi Garner(Jim's daughter) is a Buffista spirit baby. She told some old guy that wrote a bad review of her dad's book to quit picking on her father, and learn to type and spell. I was tickled.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I finished the third Sandman Slim book yesterday and then started reading Something Wicked This Way Comes which I have been meaning to read some October for several years now but somehow keep not doing it. So far, I love it!

Oooh! Thanks for reminding me of SWTWC. I know what I'll be reading next...

Happy to help!

Why didn't I take this advice sooner? I really haven't read much Bradbury other than Fahrenheit 451 and some short stories, which is odd because I have really enjoyed what I have read by him.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Right? I was the same way when I read it a few months ago. I clearly need to read more.

Jilli, what other Bradbury would you recommend?

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I really should read SWTWC for the third or fourth time for Halloween.
Jilli, what other Bradbury would you recommend?
Not Jilli, but I'd say Dandelion Wine and all the short stories. I find The Martian Chronicles problematic, but others may feel differently.
He should have lived forever.
