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.

Except people who live across the continent are sad now.

Of course, people across the continent also have way less time to read than they'd like lately ...

Neal Stephenson wrote a new book and I somehow didn't know!

I will see the world again in a couple of days.
