'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
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."
her new musical, Jesus Christ Mary Sue.
BWAH!
My step-mother just sent me a couple books by some friends of hers. They are Tony Hillerman/Angel crossovers. Seriously. A Navajo cop (although NM State Police, not Tribal Police) gets turned into a vampire, but he's still good and fights (supernatural) crime.
I read the first one in one biking session. The plot isn't all that bad, but my word. The writing is atrocious. And I'm as close to the perfect target audience as you can get!
Oh, I think I read one of those!
OMG... Of course Sherman Alexie's "Indian Killer" guarantees I see Hillerman as an insecure, wanna-be bedwetter because that's what his Hillerman-type is like...it really has influenced my view of him. What's a tango pirate?

Like a stevedore. Only with a rose in his teeth.
it would be hard to resist that.
And better footwork.
Some of the tango pirates were really privateers for the dancing queen.

OK, I know a lot of you like the Honor Harrington books. I've been feeling in a very space-opera mood lately, and picked up the first one at the used bookstore the other day, just cracked it open.
Someone please tell me it gets better. I mean, I'm only ten pages in, but...dude. Empathic tree cat? Seriously?

Intelligent empathic tree cat...
The first book isn't too bad. I think the second is better.
