Thanks for the rec, Connie.
I should find a way to contact her and congratulate her for getting it out to a wider audience.
Mercy is the mark of a great man. Guess I'm just a good man. Well, I'm all right.

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."

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Strix, I read it, and it's great fun, and light enough for a sick day read.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Great! Thank you, Anne!

I grabbed my copy of Preston & Child's The Relic Tuesday to read while waiting at the auto shop. Apparently, it's been long enough since I last opened it that it's effectively like reading a new book - my only recollections are a few snippets from the film version.

I raced through Old Man's War. And prompt bought the 2nd book in the series! I quote enjoyed it, and I'm going to buy a copy for my dad. I think it's right up his alley. My dad is the one that turned me on to old school Heinlein, after all.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I just heard today that SyFy is going to be making an Old Man's War series (which will be called Ghost Brigades). Since I'm in the middle of a BSG rewatch, I am cautiously optimistic!

I read the Melendy books to my daughter a couple of years ago when she was in second grade and she enjoyed them very much, as did I; I was too busy reading about ancient Greece, Rome, and Egypt when I was her age.
