Ahhhhhh why must alllll my library holds come in at once? I had like three books expire before I finished them and have a few more to go and just got emails that like four more things had come in!
Shh! I kinda wanna hear me talking right now!

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 just had 7 holds come in last week! And the book I started on is not grabbing me so I'm not getting off to a brisk start! They used to have a function on the website so you could put dates on your holds and space them out, but it doesn't seem to work anymore!
Which is to say, I feel your pain!

I'm pretty sure my library has a feature where you can put your hold on hold, so to speak. Suspend the hold, I want to say, while you finish your present book or whatever but don't lose your place in line.

Yeah, I recently saw that—but I had these set to auto checkout, so I already have them! Oops.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Amazon seems to have Charlotte MacLeod kindle editions running $2.99 a piece. Oops, there goes my tax refund.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
That's, um... Yeah, "Wow" just about sums it up.
