Which thread should I ask about Kindles in? This one or Tech? I'm finally thinking of getting myself one, and am not sure which I want.
I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

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."

Jilli! Pete's Kickstarter Project was one of their "Projects We Love"!

Holy crap! That'll teach me not to read the Kickstarter emails!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I think either one would be appropriate, Jilli! Although I think I did most of my Kindle talking in Tech.

Thanks P-C! I'll scoot over to Tech.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I started getting getting choked up when I was reading Augustus and Hazel's perfect dinner in Amsterdam.
It made me remember the first time I read a book that really gutted me and that was when I was reading The World According to Garp and I got to the part where Garp says, "I mith him."

Wait till you get to the end.

I was getting choked up in preparation for the end.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Okay, I need some hivemind help. Elie Wiesel (I think!) has a quote about writing poetry that I want to reference. It's something about how poetry comes from suffering and then people tell the poet, oh, suffer again, so we can hear the exquisite sounds of your groans.
Something like that. But much better. Can anyone find it for me? My google-fu is failing.
