Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

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'm a hundred pages into Cold Kiss, and it's really good!! I mean, I didn't really doubt that, since I remember reading a chapter a long time ago before it was published, but now it's in PRINT and it's MAGICAL.

Because books.

I'm glad, P-C! Enjoy.

Is this going to be a series or a trilogy?

Glass Heart follows it, but that's it.

Oh, that's it? It's just a duology? Those are becoming a thing these days! I like it! It's sort of the perfect balance between "Man, this book is great, and I would like more" and "Holy crap, how many books have I committed to with this thing..."

You'd be surprised how many readers were excited to think it was a stand-alone.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Ha! I admit, as a reviewer, I do get kind of excited when a teen book (especially one with fantasy or paranormal elements) is NOT a trilogy.

I would not. Man, am I tired of EVERYTHING being a series. Can't I just read one book and be DONE?? I have so many other books to read dammit.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I was kind of angry that Sunshine by Robin McKinley did not have a sequel. I intellectually understand her explanation, but it doesn't make much sense to me. She did a lot of world-building with that book, she can't come up with a sequel?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

"you've got a dark horse, you've got a cold kiss..." is stuck in my head again!

I am a little disappointed that there is not a third book, but I haven't read the second yet because I liked the first so much. I don't like things to end.
