NEW LESTAT NOVEL IN OCTOBER! I don't care how cracky. I don't care how insane Anne Rice is. I will read it.
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

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."

Okay, my lovely buffistas, have any of you read Eliza and her Monsters?
Man, does the author get fandom right. It was fantastically fun to read.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Not yet, but after this rec and the description mentioning Nimona I'm sure going to.

I really loved it. Made me so happy to feel like someone got my fandom world. The rest was sad.

Congrats on the Nebula nomination! The story was nice and creepy, although I'm not sure I got what was going on...
