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."

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

For what it's worth, the rust in the water was temporary - they'd been working on the water heater - and it cleared in a minute or so. Just enough to scare me.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I just realized that HoL may have quashed my dream of a secret passageway in my house.

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

You're quite welcome.

Has anyone else gotten the new Kindle update?? It's so rare that updates don't make me decry change in general, but the new look is kind of snazzy, and HOLY SHIT THE TIME TO READ FEATURE IS ALL I EVER WANTED. It calculates your reading speed and tells you how long you have until the end of the chapter and the book. Finally, FINALLY, this changes everything.

Because books.

Update?

I got a Kindle Software update for my Touch yesterday. I'm actually not sure how the hell those things work when I don't turn on the wireless, but they do.

In email, or one of those notifications up in the upper left corner?

Oh, wait, you said Touch. I have a Fire. Never mind.

Oh Hugh Howey. I don't want to link it because it doesn't merit clicks. A quick twitter search will do fine: Hugh Howey Worldcon.

I saw Seanan talking about that on Twitter but couldn't find it. Let's see...

Ew. There are less gross ways to tell that story. And here I had been intrigued by the Wool phenomenon and kind of wanted to check it out.
