Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

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."

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

I sent you a friend request, msbelle, and a couple more Buffistas whose names popped up as friends of other Buffistas. If anyone wants to connect with me on Goodreads, let me know! I've gotten much more active on there this year.

Everyone should read Jennifer Cruise. She is fun and easy but also very, very good.

Because books.

I liked her last one, Maybe This Time. But I would love another Faking It or Welcome to Temptation.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

She is the best! I don't even generally like contemporary romance, but hers are so much fun. For historical, I am currently in love withEloisa James.

Readers of historical romance, if you have not yet read Joanna Bourne, do so. Start with The Forbidden Rose.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I love Jenny Cruisie. I end up rereading Faking It, Welcome to Temptation, and Bet Me almost every year.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Has anyone here read Girl Waits With Gun or anything else by Amy Stewart? I got them for Christmas and am excited!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Haven't read those yet, Jesse, though I am interested.(Historical mysteries with strong female characters? Very much my thing.) Problem is, my list of stuff I want to read is long, and I often forget about books until I see some mention of them.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I've read both in that series,Jesse. I liked them a lot. the first one was a little slow -butI might sometimes be impatient. the second one I go as a goodreads giveaway

I second flea's recommendation of Joanna Bourne. The books are set during the French revolution and Napoleanic era. While they are stand-alones with interconnected characters, it is best to start with =The Forbidden Rose=.

If your library does Overdrive, the books are available there.

Don't bother with =Her Ladyship's Companion= unless you're a real completist.
