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.
