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."

For anyone who likes Ellis Peters, the books in her George Felse series are on sale for $1.99 to $2.99 at Amazon. At least, I assume that's a sale price. Regardless, they're well worth it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
THANK YOU!
Relatedly, Slate had a podcast recently about that book, and I was thrilled that the first thing Charlie Jane Anders said was how much the main character sucks.
