Yay Sox! Can't wait to read it!
I also bought Gud's book on my kindle and will be reading it this weekend. Buffista authors are indeed the best.
Note to self: religion freaky.
Buffy ,'Never Leave Me'
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."

There are similar rumblings from time to time in Crime Fiction, that women, in particular(esp. Sara Paretsky, whom I love, and who sells many books regardless) get too political. But it's part of the tradition of crime fiction, unless you just want characters doing blow off a taut stripper's ass, in every story. But I still think it's ridiculous that chest-beating Manly Men, allegedly aware of the power of language, call themselves any "Puppies". Manly has gotten sad since Dashiell Hammett I guess. I haven't seen an "acronym problem" that major since Zadie Smith made up a terrorist group named "KEVIN"

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

IKR I think it's supposed to represent some sort of self-awareness, but it just comes across as Really?!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Clearly, we are just humorless females who don't get the hilarity.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Found Topaz, Sox. Should I read it before Jewel, or does it matter?

So they are courting the derisive mocking laughter, Dana? Okie dokie!

Actually, I do find it worth a laugh, just probably not the type they prefer.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
