Have any of you read any of the Rainbow Rowell books?
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."
I haven't yet, but I would like to. Eleanor and Park more than Fangirl, though, or at least first.
A slew of Terry Pratchett's Discworld books are the Kindle deal of the day.
This is very lovely (spoiler warning if you haven't read Code Name Verity)
I think this is very relevent to the interests of a certain number of Buffistas: [link]
I was already laughing, but then I got to, "Henry James can go suck an egg." Snerk. Awesome!
Oh my god! That is amazing!
Stoddart tactfully left the two poets alone. ‘If you are willing – will excuse me – I will go off for an hour or so – come back again – leaving you together,’ he said. ‘We would be glad to have you stay,’ Whitman replied. ‘But do not feel to come back in an hour. Don’t come for two or three.’
ah ... but did Whitman come for two or three hours ....
(yes ... I am twelve ... possibly thirteen)
Of course, every word of Walt Whitman I hear in Garrison Keillor's voice. I wonder if Keillor would be amused.
more to the point, I'm not sure Walt Whitman would be!
