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."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I love that it looks like a mashup of Community and Hogwarts.

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

Has anyone read "Fated" (an Alex Versus novel)? I'm in the middle of it right now and I think it is scratching a particular itch for me. I'm enjoying it, though I'm a bit lost in the world-building.

Check it out: Knut (remember Knut?) has a new book coming out

Are you all able to preorder Knut's book. I am getting not yet available, and I wondered if I was geoblocked.

Because books.

Deal in today's Publishers Lunch:

Author of the #1 NYT bestselling FALLEN series, Lauren Kate's TEARDROP trilogy, about a 17-year old Louisiana girl whose tears have the power to raise the lost continent of Atlantis.

That's ... a lot of tears, I would think.

Well duh.
