I'm reading it right now, Sunil. Just getting started.
I'm just trying to tell you that we have nothing in common besides both of us liking your penis.

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."

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.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
For people who use Goodreads, how do you deal with partially read books. I don't finish a lot of books, especially non fiction, I just read the parts that interest me. But I like to see how many books I read in a year. I feel like I should count them somehow- there are around 6 so far this year. But I feel like I am lying if I put them in read

The only time I put something unfinished on my read shelf was when I wanted to give it a negative review, otherwise I delete.
If you want to count them, I would mark them as read, write a review that says "Did not finish" or something to that effect, and set up a DNF shelf. That way, at the end of the year you could just count what is on the DNF shelf.
Personally, I find it very helpful when someone says they didn't finish a book, especially if they say why.

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire
I created a did-not-finish shelf. I don't remember if it counts it as a book that I read or not, but I like keeping track of things I gave up on for whatever reason.
I typically don't rate those books because it doesn't seem right to rate something that I didn't finish.

Yep, loved The Night Circus.
Next up: The Coldest Girl in Coldtown! Not read by Jim Dale, sadly. Everything should be read by Jim Dale.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I picked up a copy of The General in his Labyrinth for $2 at Half Price Books this week. The title jumped out at becuase y'all had mentioned it, so thanks for that.

I know this article is probably intentional click bait, but when I got the part in Section 4 about how libraries "should be more judicious in their spending," I had a rage attack.
