Yay zuisa! ebooks are the BEST for travel. I am so happy to be living in this future. As a kid I swear I dreamed about this kind of thing...
Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

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."

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
- Divergent and Insurgent by Veronica Roth (loved them; can't wait for both book 3 and the movie)
There's going to be a MOVIE?
Which is to say, yeah, I read them, too, and really enjoyed them.

Yes! It's not set to come out until 2014, but still. The actress cast to play Tris is from Secret Life of the American Teenager, which worries me, but still.
I plowed through the first book in a day; I was completely sucked in.

It shouldn't. She was great in The Descendants and won a ton of awards.

Oh, good! I wasn't aware she'd been in anything else. ABC Family is just on in my house enough that Secret Life is all I recognized her name from.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Divergent and Insurgent by Veronica Roth
I take it the last one will be called Resurgent?

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
- The Rook by Daniel O'Malley (awesome)
I'm about halfway through this myself, based on, if I remember correctly, Pix's recommendation. I'm definitely enjoying it. Good to see another rec!

It is such a cool story! Very different, and nice to see a girl main character kicking ass all over the book without being anybody's love interest.

I shared this on FB, but it probably belongs here too.
