Yes, it's a great book, and you are going to be a sobbing mess.
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

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."

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!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
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.

The status is NOT quo.
I just read it, Connie! The Fool is a man, though he has masqueraded as a woman. It was a great read.
I adore Robin Hobb.
