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."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's actually her first novel?

Wow, OK. That should be interesting....

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, wow, that's so exciting!

Our wings are not tired.

It's very fishy. Google Harper and lawsuits or her health or anything, and it's pretty clear she's possibly incapacitated and being exploited. She didn't just suddenly change her mind out of the blue on a book she has frequently said she didn't think was good enough to publish (amongst other reasons). I'm off to work or I'd provide links, but I know y'all have Google-foo.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Nanita, I was just thinking the same thing.

Yeah, the timing on this is interesting.

Well, that's as may be, but I still want to read the hell out of it.

Unless I become convinced that Harper Lee wanted the public to read it, I won't. [link]

If her heirs decided to publish it after she died, would you feel the same way?
