Holy crap, Code Name Verity!!!! Now I have to go back and read everything you all wrote about it!
I've got two words that are going to make all the pain go away. Miniature Golf.
Mayor ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
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.
Isn't it wonderful? In a highly painful way?

Yeah, pretty much. Speaking of which, this is a lovely book trailer someone made for it. Or vid. I don't actually agree with Maddie's casting, but it's lovely anyway.

Ooh, interesting trailer!
I still have the new one on my kindle and haven't brought myself to read it yet.

Does anyone here do reddit/fantasy? Cooking the Books has a site of the week AMA (they're trying to start a new thing) and I'm fidgety-nerves. On the plus side, the interviews match up with a fair number of r/fantasy popular authors, so hopefully it will go ok.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I hope it goes really well!
