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."

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Full version of the US cover.

(1) I think those are people (or souls if the curtain is The Curtain).

(2) I can't tell if Harry is wearing the Slytherin amulet/locket.

(3) Voldemort is TOTALLY doing "Stop! In the Name of Love!"

Art Crawl!!!

If you click on the picture to expand it (you get an annoying popup) but you can see that Harry is wearing the pendent/amulet/locket.

I did click on the picture to expand it, and I can tell that Harry is wearing something on a string/cord/chain around his neck, but there's not enough detail, even enlarged, to tell if it really is THE Slytherin piece o' jewelry.

Yeah, I'm not sure it's THE locket or not, but in conjunction with the locket on the UK adult cover, it's suggestive.

I wonder what all the broken stuff in front of Voldie and Harry is. It's going to be months before I can get my hands on this book, I know it.

Ann, that's a ferret.

What caught my eye:

(1) Harry and the cloaked figure (who isn't, or maybe isn't any longer, human) seem to be looking -- and more important, gesturing -- in the same direction. Which suggests that Harry and the cloaked figure are on the same side.

(B) The building in the background looks like Roman architecture. Possibly a coliseum?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

OOOOH OOOOH OOOOH

R.A.B.! R.A.B.! R.A.B.!

OR OR OR

If it IS The Curtain, it could be Sirius!!!

Because books.

I did click on the picture to expand it

I tried to and got an annoying 404 page instead.

I can't do that. Throwing the count off would really bug me. It might be worth setting up a separate account for that, though.

Heh. I totally thought about adding Read-but-Don't-Own, but the count thing would bug me too! Separate account, hmm...tempting...

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

I set up a separate account. TamarasUnlibrary. I think it will be very useful, but I haven't upgraded it to paid, yet.
