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."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Dana might appreciate this: one of the Tor bloggers is doing a periodic review of old Paramount Star Trek: TOS tie-in novels.
Interesting. Although I mostly completely disagree with her. She likes "Enterprise: The First Adventure" more than "Final Frontier"?

I was reading some of those reviews, and it seems silly to be judging the books for not showing sufficiently advanced technology. They seemed plenty futuristic to me when I read them. I need to find the Diane Duane books again, I think they're in the garage.

Huh. I had no idea she wrote Trek books. But I think you've just inspired me to put the So You Want to be a Wizard series up next on the to-be-re-read list.

Hey. New board.
Oh the wizard books! Good stuff. I lost track of them around the eighth book though - eight is too many of most things.

Because books.
I will leave megan's response as my own. I don't think you are prepared for the WTF.
I'm now three-quarters of the way through [Gone Girl], and holy shit. Unprepared is an understatement.

Yeah, I agree about the wizard series. I enjoy them, but they keep getting more and more complicated. Which is true of her Star Trek books as well.

And yet, the HSQ increases.

Man, I am nearing the end of The Shadowed Sun, and I am having Mark-level reactions to this book.

The status is NOT quo.
I told you those books were awesome.
