'Time Bomb'
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."
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.
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.
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??
Yes. Set after the first and with an American ATA officer captured in a concentration camp. It's not available yet in the US.
Aargh. It's not supposed to be out here until September.
Yes, it's not out here until the fall, which is why I couldn't resist buying a copy in Britain.
OMG I hadn't heard there was another one by Wein! Wow. How can I get myself a copy, I wonder...
