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."

Because books.

Got it and backflung!

Yay! It worked!

OK, I'm enjoying paging through my books online as much as I am sitting on the couch, reading the titles from across the room. Or organizing them in a shelf by topic. This is a sickness, right?

Shut.up.

I won't tag at home. Too slow with the dialup (though the isbn scanning is remarkably fast! ) so I do that at work when... I should be working. So far, tagging has started with "what I've not read" which is actually a boon. Makes me want to read those books! But looking at the titles, it is interesting to find tendencies I wouldn't have noticed before. I know about the foreign affairs, mid east/central europe/USSR-Russia stuff. The heavy latina lit thing is a revelation. I knew I identified with that, found a home in it, but... I really love that stuff.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The member library still contains 5402 books. I am unduly irritated by that.

I don't understand what you're getting at, ita?

I'm excited by teh possibility of swapping books...

It doesn't update nearly enough, which is verra annoying.

After digging out all my old college texts and adding them to the library, I have the urge to read stuff I haven't even thought of in years, like Twain's Connecticut Yankee... and the Shakespeare plays. Oo, and the Spoon River Anthology is totally going next to my bed for quick bedtime reading.

Because books.

I think I'm still under 80 books entered, but so many of mine are packed away they're going to have to wait. I did ask for the lifetime membership and a cuecat for my birthday, though.

And I got the LT Author button, which is kind of cool.
