FWIW, Kate Ross was a big Dorothy Dunnett fan...
Darn your sinister attraction!

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."

Rayne, that book has shown up on a lot of best-of lists, and it sounds great! It's on my to-read list.

Because books.
Maybe I'll look at them -- I loved the Kate Ross books so much.

Because books.
Um... I guess it's good that Flynn is doing it with him, but it seems like they're about to change a big piece of what made the story so memorable.

I'm really not sure I even want to see that movie anymore.

Hey. New board.
Yeah, I thought the ending was perfect. Movies can end in uncomfortable ways too people!

Holy crap. The entire Oz collection is on sale at Amazon (Kindle) for only $.99! [link]
ETA: Whoa, and the Anne of Green Gables books, the Peter Pan books, and a collection of 16 classic horror stories (including Dracula, Frankenstein, and the Legend of Sleepy Hollow). Sweet sale!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Some of that might be public domain. I know the Anne books are, and the Legend of Sleepy Hollow.
No bonus features or illustrations, though.

Amy, I read about the rewrite in EW. I was wondering if it was metaphorical, relating to something else or if it was a reset entirely. I'm not sure.

Yeah, I'll bet most of it is on Project Gutenberg. Might be better formatting in those versions, though.
