I'm reading the "Divergent" series and I'm on "Allegiant".
Uh .... what? I'm so confused.
I'm not very far into it but still, huh?

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."

Yeah ... this is kind of nutty. Like, why change narration style all of a sudden?

I wonder if she had had more time to ruminate if the book wouldn't have been better.

OK, so msbelle back in... November? December? helped me go through a lot of books and decide if I really needed them. I had too many books (and nowadays have many of them as ebooks).
But now I have piles and piles (literally--they've been on the floor of the guest room since then) that I don't know what to do with. I suspect they're not really worth much, even though there's lots of them--none of them are especially rare or anything. They're just a lot of scifi, fantasy, and a few thriller/romances. Mostly paperback, a few hardback. So...what do I do with them? I hesitate to donate them to Goodwill or wherever, just because I feel like there's got to be a better solution. As a kid/teenager I would've KILLED to get a huge number of books like this, but I don't think I know any locally who would want them? (And these days they can get them electronically, right?)

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Call and ask schools or libraries if they need them?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Or a senior center? Or a prison? Anywhere people spend a lot of unscheduled time, really....

Better than Goodwill be a Friends of the Library book sale. Much better chance of them finding a good home.
