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.

Discussion Threads

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."

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.

not your mom's socks.

Goodness me, yes.

And it's a TRILOGY.

Dude, I really do have to get cracking on my writing.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

And it's a TRILOGY.

Well duh.

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

"Cry me a river. No wait...a lost continent."

This must have some debate-worthy items on it.

Nothing between 1966 and 1990? They're mad.

Not sure if this should go in Lit or Tech, but: I want a reading app on my ipad that is better than kindle or ibooks. Because what I want:

1)to be able to side-load DRM-free books that I have downloaded from elsewhere (I can do this in ibooks, but afaik not in the kindle app, though I can sideload with calibre onto my actual kindle)

2) to be able to resize the covers/bookshelf part (the pretty show of covers and such on the ibook bookshelf or kindle page is great and all, but I want to be able to enlarge or reduce it, which I can't seem to do)

3) to be able to click or hold or whatever on a book/cover, and have the description show up. Because seriously, I have a ton of books, and while sometimes I can remember from the cover what it's about, half the time I'm like "Wait, was Countless that YA about the vampires, or the thriller about the accountants, or the romance about the millionaire?"

4) to be able to group the books somehow (folders, bookshelves, collections, whatever. I can do this in ibooks, and I think I can do it in the kindle app? I can do it on my kindle, but haven't tried in the app)

Anyone have an awesome answer for me? I feel like I'm not asking that much of it!
