Jesse, I don't know if that book is too too for your cousin, but it looks fascinating.

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."

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Right? I want to read it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, very nice. Thanks!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
That was a cracking good read.

I've been reading a bunch of the NPR book concierge books. A number of them I'd already read (mostly the romances) but there were a lot I hadn't. They've been slowly coming off hold and I'm reading them (or trying and giving up, as I did for Terra Nullius—I got about halfway through I think, if anyone wants to tell me there's an amazing twist? Besides the obvious one)
I also re-read "that inevitable Victorian thing", which I kinda loved and want more stories in that universe. And just got "odd one out", which I really was loving until about the last 5 pages. I didn't like the ending one bit and perhaps not for the reason some might think (anyone else read it?)

Christmas book update -- someone else got my cousin that one book, and I still want to read it! This is the problem with doing all your shopping in book stores: I got many books for Christmas, but still have a long list of other ones I want!
