I just finished The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee, and had to recommend it to the Buffistas immediately. It's 18th-century historical fiction, queer romance, and YA fantasy-tinged adventure all rolled up into one extremely satisfying story. I loved it and I feel certain that many of you would love it too!
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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."

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Very lovely! (grumbles: taut, not taught)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Oh, my. It's beautiful.
