Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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 status is NOT quo.

It's on my kindle but I can't start reading it yet! Torture!

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

I almost kinda want to put it in the freezer right now. Not quite, but thinking about it.

Because books.

That's only for scary books! If you're Joey, anyway.

I'm waiting for payday (Friday), when I will buy it at my local independent store. Whoo!

Updraft makes me laugh a bit since one of the sharpest, earliest memories Sox and I share of each other is me telling her not to sing. So proud you found your voice, cousin.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I was reading a book in which a couple (walk-on characters, basically) had sons named Malcolm and Jayne. ha!

Favorite line from same book, "900 million dollars buys a lot of robotic mice."

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Scary like Little Women, yeah.

"But Beth is really sick, and Jo just got there, but I don't think there's anything she can do..."

I'm waiting for payday (Friday), when I will buy it at my local independent store.

This is also my intent.

So proud you found your voice, cousin.

Awww

not your mom's socks.

me telling her not to sing.

always rock out to Bon Jovi in the back seat with headphones on. ALWAYS.

Thanks you guys. I am resisting crawling into Natter and asking people to tell me I have pretty hair but it's a close thing. So many feelings all at once.

Your hair is very pretty, Sox. I saw pictures.

I am currently burning with resentment that I have to WORK instead of finishing reading. Argh!

You DO have pretty hair. And a pretty book.
