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 lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Congratulations, Barb!

not your mom's socks.

RIP Natalie Babbitt.

I have a distinct problem with 2016. It is breaking my heart in a thousand pieces.

Tonight especially.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Oh man. That's a tough one.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Also, I saw that Sherri S. Tepper had died.

These are coooool. I wish was an author so I could get my work printed on a scarf! In all the colors!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

While hunting down covers for ebook versions of books I owned and must therefore have the proper covers for, I discovered this article about Rilla of Ingleside:

[link]

And at the end, it mentions:

Republished in 2011 in an unabridged version, including 4,500 words cut from the initial publication and contextual notes for the modern reader, Rilla is due to be rediscovered as a classic.

Has anyone read this unabridged version?
