Thanks Strix. That might work.
Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

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."

In case I can't grab the Runaways today, are there any graphic novels within the Marvel Universe, specifically Ultron or Avengers related that would also be good for a 13 year old? I'm sure he will be seeing the movie.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I'm not sure this qualifies as "literary" but it was either here or Bitches: were-cuttlefish m/m erotica. The reviewer was disappointed that there were no tentacles involved.

Has anyone read the complete "All Souls Trilogy" which started with A Discovery of Witches?
I just finished the first book and have some mixed feelings, and I'm curious what people thought if they completed the complete trilogy?

I've been trying to read Discovery , but it's not very gripping.

Hey. New board.
My wife LOVED discovery. I found it... problematic and a little boring but not without merit. She was less fond of the second book, which I found much more interesting. Less stupid romantic plot line (though more sex, if that helps/hinders anything) and far more historical knowledge for the sake of it. I never bothered to read the third one, but I think she liked it better than the second.
She describes it as Twilight for smart people, which, okay. I enjoyed some of the bits for smart people but never quite made it past the twilight parts in my head.

I couldn't get through the kindle sample of Discovery.

The history angle is what I'm interested in, I think I've read too many vampire romances to be that interested. It's sitting in the car and I read a few bits if I'm waiting at a drive through or just enjoying the rain.
