Oh, poor Plei. I hope you can ahem soon.
Still in Consuela's corner re LibraryThing.

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."

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have hooked my mom and maybe my dad on LibraryThing. This may involve me scanning their books for them, but ultimately will make it that much easier for me to browse their shelves, so I'm counting it as a win.
I tag all my books to make sure my tagging system is complete and not redundant.
I'm massively impressed by this. I can see that it's a good thing, but how to do it is so beyond me I wouldn't even know where to start. Neat.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm in the Consuela and Lee corner. Attacking my books with LT sounds like a freakin' nightmare, not a jolly exercise in geekdom. Scary. But y'all go on and have a good time with it.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Hi. I've been feeling pouty that the discussion never took off on the LT Buffistas group, and I TOTALLY FORGOT WE HAD A LITERARY THREAD HERE.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
This weekend, I build bookshelves and finish unpacking los books! And then upgrade to a paid membership on LT.

brillig
I just chortled when I realized there was a WHOLE BAG of unsorted books in the dressing room.
I had the same response when I realized one of the shelves in the living room was actually doublestacked and there was a whole row behind the first that I hadn't gotten to yet.
It's a sickness.

Amy, I've tagged all my books now (at least preliminarily), so it should be easy for you to check out any romances you would want me to pass on!
And I'm totally fantasizing about new bookshelves now...
Amy - Mar 23, 2007 10:53:07 am PDT #2350 of 28175
Because books.
Yay! I will go browse your collection ...
sumi, what's squickily incestuous about the Tolkien book?

I believe that the curse that causes the downfall of the family is the result of sibling incest. If I'm recalling the Silmarillion correctly. I suppose the Encyclopedia of Arda would help.
