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.

Yes, yes you will.

But you won't regret it.

The status is NOT quo.

I love Wonder. I added to our 6th grade reading list, actually.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I gotta read Verity.

Hey. New board.

Every middle schooler in our school is reading it over the summer. I am looking forward to the all school read discussion for the first time since I cane here.

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

Am I going to be heartbroken?

Yes, yes you will.

But you won't regret it.

Oh, as usual, dear. Well, I can't put it aside while I gird up my loins - it's a library book (overdue). I shall just have to dive in with new fierceness of purpose (and brace myself).

Why'd it have to be so well written, drat it.

not your mom's socks.

I loved that book.

I'm on the third Montmaray book now, and loving it, as well.

Sara read Wonder and she adored it. I want to read it, too.

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

I just started Code Name Verity too! And I also picked up the second book (I think it's a sequel, or at least has some of the same characters?) at the same time -- they were in an airport bookstore in Heathrow, and I couldn't resist.

Also, a big thank you to everyone who recommended Among Others by Jo Walton. I read it this week and, oh, it made me so happy.

The second book is out? I missed that!

I'd like to read Among Others, too.

There's a second book??
