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."

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.

You have to respect a guy who proposed by asking his significant other if she'd do him the honour of being his widow.

I like his books too, but...that just made things extra real.

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

Interesting! I'll have to play around with that. Not that I need more book recommendations, just to see what it does.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Fun concept, but definitely still needs work. Took me 3 tries to get it to recognize a book, then the suggestions weren't all that. Hopefully, it's one of those things that learns as it gets used.

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

What ET said.

The site didn't recognize the last 3 books I read. Which actually gave me a bit of a complex.
