Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

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."

Art Crawl!!!

Two things:

1. I did not know that Kindred has been adapted as a graphic novel.

2. Check out this side table designed for reading.

And yet, I'm looking forward to Horizon way way WAY more than Pullman's books. (Seriously, the release date has been on my calendar since I finished Cloudbound.)

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

Oh, my, yes.

I'm actually a little meh on Pullman. The Dust was a disappointing bit of world-building for me, so I may just pass on these.

I am looking forward to it too. I love this last book a whole lot.

If you'd like to round out the trilogy of obsessive Bone Universe tracking, I had the release dates for Updraft and Cloudbound on my calendar, too.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I'm way behind, but I recently finished Binti ... and really liked it.

I read that a couple weeks ago (I think it was on sale? Or I got it from the library? Why am I so tired this morning??). I also enjoyed it but wanted more info in that universe! Is there?
