Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness. Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

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 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.

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.

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.

The Starless Sea doesn't trump The Night Circus for me, but then the only way The Night Circus could have been more aimed at me was if it had vampires.

Hey. New board.

I'm reading Night Circus right now. So far I'm disappointed with the lack of Circus.

I just started 10k Doors. So far I'm liking it a lot.
