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."

Our wings are not tired.

I binged through Emma Newman's Split World series I the last week. It was really well done and creative, and ended better than I feared. Good stuff.

I just put that to next on my Nook list. Looking forward to it.

Oooh, that looks good. Adding it to my list too.

It's very: what if Regency England but feminists, sorcerers, talking gargoyles, and dangerous lords of the Fae? And also the environmental damage of untrammeled capitalism.

I have to read 23 more books by the end of the year to reach my reading goal. So I see a lot of novellas and graphic novels in my future.

Because books.

Has anyone tried Joanne Chambers for m/m historical romance in ebook?

Yeah, I read too many 500+ page novels and kind of blew my goal. No real regrets!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My embarrassment is that I somehow surpassed my goal and read 237 books this year. I kept saying I could tell how depressed I was by how many books I read! I am now trying to read some more challenging material.

not your mom's socks.

I loved 10k Doors of January, I'm struggling with Starless Sea and I think it's because I'm trying to novel and read, and I really liked a book that people are hating (9th House) -- weird.

I miss you all a lot.

People are hating 9th House? I haven't started it yet, but I am looking forward to it.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

I finished Starless Sea. I liked it, but I didn't love it. Too many threads for me to follow, I think. Ten Thousand Doors of January is still definitely my favorite.

Similarly, I liked Gideon the Ninth but didn't love it (definitely didn't hate it — I'd heard nothing but raves before I read it). I like my books with a little more exposition.
