Amy, I'm in the middle of Rose Under Fire right now too, and your hope is mine. I don't think I could bear it if that doesn't happen.
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."
Hmm, would really like to read Rose Under Fire.
Does anyone have a kindle copy that they could lend me?
I had to put it down last night, Kate, and go back to The Raven Boys, because I was in tears and I just couldn't hack it. I do love Rose, though.
sumi, I had Code Name Verity on Kindle, but I lent it to my mom and I think you can only lend it once, and I have a hard copy of Rose Under Fire.
I thought Consuela, particularly, would enjoy the essay at the bottom of this page.
Thanks for the heads-up, Beverly, I'll take a look.
I'm on vacation in Colorado, so mostly online, but I sadly came across some of the discussion about what's going on in SF writerdom right now. What a clusterfuck. Especially when I see writers I really like saying things that make me sad.
The Tiptree winner (and honorees) has been named: [link]
Pretty cool! I love it that Janelle Monae got honored.
me too. so very much.
There was a video of a couple of people at the side of some train tracks and, as a train with an open car goes by, a woman jumps for the car. She misses and falls to the track, but lies someplace safe and gets up all right.
Anyway, all I could think was that she'd read "Divergent".
Oh, man, "Fangirl" is good stuff. I could have used a little more showing, rather than telling, especially about Cath and Wren's backstory, but I really enjoyed it nonetheless.
