I'll admit I skimmed -- did they level each author at all? Reading level, I mean? That would have been interesting to see.
Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

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."

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
One of the commenters took offense to the lumping in of these three books together. I actually agree with some of her points.

I'm surprised Harry Potter isn't higher than that, based on the vocabulary.

Hey. New board.
I think the later books are higher levels

Has anyone read Hild yet? I couldn't put it down. Compelling.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I'm hoping to get Hild for Hanukkah! I love Nicola Griffith.

I have never read any of Nicola Griffith's books before. Does she normally write historical fiction?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I've not read her before. I searched but didn't come up with any previous historical fiction.
