t,
I need to read Cloud Atlas too. We can form a book club!
I just finished Deadline - and the newsflesh trilogy. That was a pretty good read! I kind of want more. I wasn't wholly satisfied with the end, but oh well.
And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

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."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I kind of want more.
Have you read Countdown (a prequel novella about the events leading to the Rising) and San Diego 2014: The Last Stand of the California Browncoats (a novella about the Rising at Comic-Con)?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I need to read Cloud Atlas too. We can form a book club!
OK! I have the sample on my iPad, but so far every time I've thought I'd start reading it, I've been too tired to think straight and just went to sleep...
We don't even have to discuss it, just motivate me to actually read it and then skip straight to the margaritas (my understanding of how book clubs work comes primarily from television).
The other book I was thinking about starting reading was Feed (Mira Grant) since it seems appropriate for Halloween, but hit the same falling asleep instead of reading obstacle.

It's not only appropriate for Halloween, but also it's really fun to follow Mark Reads Newsflesh. He just read a certain chapter in Feed, and Seanan is laughing at his pain.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
P-C,
I have not. I need to read. But I want the epilogue, not necessarily the prequels, if that makes sense.

Ah, well, that you're not going to get except in fanfic. Seanan has said that the Masons' story is over. Although she might follow some of the other characters, I don't know.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
hmm. okay. I don't find that particularly satisfying, but I'll take it.

P-C, I really loved Firestarter.

I picked up Cujo at a garage sale a while ago. It came out the week I was born!
