Haven't you killed me enough for one day?

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

Stupid first day of stupid new job. I have books to read!

ARGH, the audiobook won't be out until the end of October! Do I break my rule about format-mixing within a series, or do I ask the Studios folks if they can slip me a pre-release mp3? (Note: waiting is not on the list of options.)

End of October! Madness.

ETA: if that is a plea for advice, whichever is faster...

Fastest would be to buy the Kindle and have it in 20 seconds, but my inner type A really wants to continue the series in audio since that's how I've read it so far. And I don't think the Invisible Library books will sustain me another month. (I have a loooooooooooong commute. I can churn through a 15-hour book in 7 days.)

Our wings are not tired.

I'm jealous of the ability to focus on audio books. I've only tried a couple times, but I get distracted and realize I am not paying attention.

Annoyed that work is keeping me from my Nook. I have only managed to get enough time for one chapter. Stupid having to work for a living.

Frustrating, but true: I have a day where I can't read and my husband is sending me texts with each chapter he finishes. At least my kiddo has gymnastics until 9 pm tonight so I will have a couple of hours to read then. Yo, Cousin! Next time I need a release day where there are no meetings with the Provost!

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

I pre-ordered my copy from Powells, and got an e-mail yesterday that it shipped.

I don't know when it will arrive, but I've got plenty of reading material to hold me until then.(Am currently reading The Brightest Fell)

Well done, Sparky1!
