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."

And then I got home and realized that I do actually own one of them, it was just on the wrong shelf so I forgot about it. Oops.

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

I don't know, I liked the dystopian reinterpretations of Wizard of Oz and Alice in Wonderland well enough, why not Little Women?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
