It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

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."

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

My accounts are already linked, although sometimes I wish they were not. I really don't need to know when a relative reads 50 Shades of Grey.

I have the new Mercy Thompson book from the library! Just in time for a weekend away.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I don't want to link my FB and Goodreads accts either. I don't even "like" anything on FB. I hate that the "recommended" way to log in to places like Hulu is now via FB. Ugh.

Co-signed! I realize this is probably a losing battle, but I really don't want every other site on the internet to be linked to my FB account or to know what I post about myself there.

I have the new Mercy Thompson book from the library!

I read it! It is good!

I also read the new Anne Bishop, which I also liked.

Visiting family = satisfying new book jones, thanks to my sister and mine's overlapping tastes. Ahh...

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

I'm with you all. I have a dummy FB acct that I use to register for sites if I need to. So far, I have only used it with one site that would not respond to customer support email messages.

not your mom's socks.

Fans of Steven Brust and Scott Lynch may want to wander over to Cooking the Books. While done purely for fun, Lynch's "Fate of Beloved Characters" recipe may resonate particularly.

Because books.

Terrible fictional boyfriends.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So it wasn't here I read about Iain Banks having less than a year to live: [link] ?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh no! That's terrible news.
