Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

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."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I may be about to do that, too. But I own so few of them!

Ebooks for most of the Vorkosigan books are available at [link] . The publisher released them on a CD with Cryoburn, so it does not include the latest book and the Ivan book.

Oh shit, I have those! But not an e-reader, but it's good to remember in case of emergency.

The e-book versions are very useful when searching for previous mentions of "Gentleman Jole".

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

Well, I finished The Expanse (now I have to wait for more, woes! But I can rewatch the series so far with my newly acquired knowledge of backstories, etc, so that should be fun), and I am pretty sure I have the CD that came with Cryoburn somewhere...

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Connie, Cordelia IS it ... pretty much.

Ok, just came back from seeing Allegiant so naturally I read the Wikipedia entry for the book to see how it matched up and I guess the movie bears a passing resemblance to what I read there. But, given what I remember people here saying about it, maybe that's a good thing? In any case, for a non-reader, this movie was way more entertaining than the last one.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Is it the final movie, or are they making one more?
