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."
I've got one disc left of Night Circus and everything is going haywire and I don't understaaaaaaand.
Similarly, I'm about 100 pages from the end of The Golem and the Jinni and everything is going haywire but I do understaaaaaaaaand.
Loving both these books.
Unrelatedly, Steph, would you like a signed copy of Shades of Milk and Honey ? This part is very important: would you, unlike me, mind that it's the original cover that won't match with the rest of your books?
Oooh, that would be cool, thank you! (And I generally don't mind mismatched covers, with the exception of covers that are a photo from the movie version, because...no. And since there's no movie version to contend with in this case, I reiterate my "yes, please"!)
Should I have her sign it to "Steph" or "Stephanie"?
Let's go with the one-syllable version.
My pickiness is your gain! Also Borderlands's gain, since I'll be buying a new copy from them.
I just finished Goblin Emperor last night! I liked it a lot, though it was a bit hard with all the crazy names--I'm not entirely sure I grasped who was who through most of it. But still enjoyed, and was sad to see she said there's no plan for a sequel, though she may write in the universe again sometime. I wanted to see the wedding and marriage! and stuff.
I'm still on the Veronica Mars book. My reading has really slowed down lately, and I don't know why. Poot.
I didn't actually love the Veronica Mars book. It felt a little too...noir. But not in a "OMG, VM is not noir" way, but in a "this is so very thematic that I feel like someone wrote it and then threw in VM and a few quips" way. Which is silly because of who wrote it, but....meh. And it's not as though that'll stop me from reading more of them when they come out.
Meara & Consuela - Yes I fell in love with the future empress and Maia's half-sister a LOT. I want books about them too
Julianna, I had a very similar reaction. Love that circus.
Crap, I still need to get the Veronica Mars book.
I just started Doctor Sleep (the sequel/companion to The Shining) and it's really good. After that I'll give Night Circus another try, though.
