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."

Yes, it is. So good.
I'm kind of surprised I haven't heard that it's been optioned yet. OTOH it would be hella hard to adapt.

Yes, it's a great book, and you are going to be a sobbing mess.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Yes, you will flail and gibbber and drool with envy at the writing.
Have fun!

I'm doing the audiobook so I get to hear the Scottish! I already love the narrative voice.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Very cool! I was already excited when I realized that was from my local. (Edit: Which I did NOT realize from the byline, because I am a skimmy skimmer who skims.)

I just saw an ad for Robin Hobb's new series The Fitz and The Fool. I don't remember, was it declared if the Fool was a man or a woman? I know the Fool appeared as both.
