This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

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

Antimony is absolutely my favorite in InCryptid. Really looking forward to her next one.

I don't dislike the Indexing characters, but I kind of dislike the premise that narratives are evil and Sloane is the only one I like enough to overcome that.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Antimony is absolutely my favorite in InCryptid.

I really, REALLY want an Alice book.

I haven't read the Toby Daye books yet, but the fact that there are so many make me happy. I love starting a series with a bunch of books ahead of me.

I got a library notice that The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter was waiting for me. I didn't even remember requesting it! Can't wait to read this one.

Our wings are not tired.

The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter

Fun!

Really liked The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter. Hit the sweet spot for that subgenre for me, I think.

Do not care for Alice. I feel like I am supposed to like her but I really just don't. The Prices in general are kind of irritating, but I put up with them for the cryptids who I generally like much more. And Antimony.

I really like Verity. I think I read Magic For Nothing way too quickly, because I wasn't left with much of an impression of Antimony. I need to reread it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Y'all have got to read this, about a book scamming its way onto the NYT bestseller list:

Loooooove Dora's book but you may notice that from around

Because books.

Y'all have got to read this, about a book scamming its way onto the NYT bestseller list:

Oh, that's gold. Wow. (I also didn't know you could do the bulk-buying thing.)

Whoa, that is fascinating, Dana!

The NYT has taken it off the list now.
