Time to slay. Vampires of the world beware!

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."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh man. I feel like she had so much left to say.

So much this.

Because books.

I'm reading A Wrinkle in Time and loving it. I thought I read it as a kid -- I remember the opening, with the storm, and Meg's general broodiness -- but the rest seems completely new.

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

I should do that. I know I read the whole series but I remember so very little, other than liking it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I keep seeing people say that! I'm sure I've reread it within the last...ten years at least, but even if I hadn't, I have a vivid memory of sitting on a particular chair in the living room of my parents' house, creeped the hell out by the kids all bouncing the balls identically, and the big pulsing brain of IT.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I know I've read the whole series, but Wrinkle is the only one I really remember.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I reread A Wrinkle in Time almost every year. I have most of Madeleine L'Engle's books, fiction and nonfiction, and both YA fiction and...what do we call it? Non-YA fiction? Fiction for people old enough to drink? Just...fiction?

I think her dialogue tends toward the ridiculous at times (do people REALLY talk that way???), but in general she's one of my favorite authors.

I am SO excited for the movie. I cried the first time I saw the trailer in a theater.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I love Wrinkle in Time. One of the ways I call asleep is to imagine being snuggled by Aunt Beast.

Awww!

The current Humble Bundle of books is FULL of Chuck Tingle books (I'm SUPER amused by the bitcoin one): [link]
