Clannad's Maire Brennan? I had no idea she was a published writer. I'll have to track down Natural History of Dragons quickly.

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."

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Woops, nope, Marie Brennan. She's a fantasy novelist: I think this is her 5th or so published novel.

Ah, okay. Well, the book sounds like my kind of thing, anyway, so thanks for the tip.

Good to hear Consuela - I'm looking forward to reading that one.

Because books.
A new book rec site, Bookish, which I already like more than Goodreads. So far it doesn't look like it supports conversation, but it's nice and clean and uncluttered and a little more inclusive than Goodreads when it comes to tangential book stuff.

According to Metafilter, Bookish belongs to a major publisher, I forget which one.

They say on the site, it's Hachette/Penguin. Unfortunately, I tested the couple of random French books on my nightstand and got nothing.

Well, there aren't many left, so there are only a few candidates. I'd guess Penguin or Random House. Or ... Penguin House.

I'm still hoping for Random Penguin.
