No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

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."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
How cool, Gris! And how nice to hear from you!

Hello, Gris!
So guys. It'll be months from now, but there's already a nice promo in Tor [link] : Angry Robot will publish Keren Landsman's Heart of the The Circle in English, which is such a wonderful book and I encourage you all to read it. Keren (who is a friend and a wonderful person) published a book before and a lot of short stories. The Heart of the Circle is probably her best fantasy writing. I can't wait for you to get the chance to read it.

I'm trying to get back into reading so I check out some light fare from the library. Meg Cabot, whom I have never read, Big Boned. Which I read super fast. It was fine, predictable in many ways, but enjoyable.
Now I am reading Jenny Colgan - Sweetshop of Dreams. Not going nearly as fast as the Cabot, but I am enjoying it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I love that video. And the Wonky Donkey reminds me of the (fancy, antsy, prancy, dancy) Nancy Ann Cianci game.

I replaced my lost copy of Zelazny's A Night in the Lonesome October with a hard cover. Given the prices I saw online, this book is getting hard to find--at least in the original cover--and it's such a glorious book.

Hey. New board.
I think Big Boned is the third or fourth in a series, msbelle. The conceit was definitely getting a bit stale by then, but the original, Size 12 is Not Fat, is among my favorite in that genre of light fun Meg Cabot fare.
I basically like everything Meg Cabot writes for both children or adults in exactly the way you described, but if you decide to dive in again I think Boy Next Door is probably my favorite. E-mail epistolary style, which isn't everybody's cup of tea, but it works for me.

I (once again) read through the new Anne Rice book in one day. And was ready to flip every table in the world over a plot line, but she fixed it. This means I don't have to sulk in a nest of grief made from my velvet frock coats.
