I'd agree with Jess, probably if you aren't enjoying by the time of the wedding, it's not for you.
So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

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 dropped it. I'm reading Swing Time and loving it.

Huh--I feel like the past few weeks I've bought several Kindle books at full price (!!!) and was contemplating buying one more (the third in a trilogy, just re-read the other two), and thought "Let me see how much I spent on books last year"
Last year I spent just over $100 on Kindle.
...this MONTH I have spent $25 so far on Kindle.
Well that would explain why I feel like I've spent so much!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Have I mentioned here that the perfect person to play Miles Vorkosigan lives in my neighborhood? I mean, he's probably not an actor, but he totally has the right proportions and coloring. I can't decide if I hope this person has read the books or not!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I stopped by the library bookstore tonight and convinced someone to buy the copy of the Night Circus that has been sitting on the shelf way too long!

Our wings are not tired.
We broke Goodreads! It said it was over capacity when I tried to go in earlier to update.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Has anyone read Woman on the Edge of Time? I'm about halfway through and it's fascinating.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Woman on the Edge of Time was a watershed book for me. I looked at things like gender expression and roles, communal living with a small footprint, and many other social ideas from a completely different perspective after reading it. The POV character's mental issues took a back seat to the other ideas for me.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
My library has delivered Station Eleven unto me. Thanks for recommending, all of you who recommended (I think there were many) from 46% in.
ETA downloading a sample of Woman on the Edge of Time so I can hopefully eventually read that!
