Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

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."

not your mom's socks.

He just yelled "TESSERACT!" from the other room. That was a little unnerving.
Should you go check to make sure he's still there?

Tiny House "librairie" - is that a bookshop in French?

I love this - particularly because their cat looks so much like my dear, departed Tanuki.

"librairie" - is that a bookshop in French?

Yup.
"librairie d'occasion" = used book store
"la maison qui chemine" = literally, the house that walks along (a path) but I'd probably say the wandering house.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

"la maison qui chemine" = literally, the house that walks along (a path) but I'd probably say the wandering house.

I am totally in love with this phrase now.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I just got an email telling me that the new Skulduggery Pleasant book is on its way to me! Supposedly it will take 2 weeks, since it's coming from the UK, but I think the previous books I've ordered from the UK have gotten here more quickly.

And I just got an updated email that it should be here on Wednesday. At least Amazon UK is consistent with beating its estimated delivery date by a week.
