Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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."

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

This isn't really about a book but about a bookstore: my favorite bookstore in the whole entire world, Borderlands Books, is closing.

I figured Sox would have a reading there when her book came out. This is so incredibly sad.

Oh, no! I have only been there a few times, but that's sad news. It's a great bookstore.

Aw man, that hurts.

But that stinks.
