I just finished Ninth House. I take it there will be a sequel/series? I will say I had less patience with it than I might've used to, given that "spoiled scions of wealthy families not understanding or caring how what they do affects others" just feels too present lately.
Willow: Yes. Hi. You must be Angel's handsome, yet androgynous, son. Connor: It's Connor. Willow: And the sneer's genetic. Who knew?

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."

Ten Thousand Doors of January was delightful! I'm so glad I read it on all y'all's rec! Did you know that erinaceous's sister repped the book? (I read acknowledgments)

I haven't read it yet, so no I didn't, but I did see Erinaceous referenced in "Because Internet", which I thoroughly enjoyed.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I don't know how much people have been keeping up with the RWA v. Courtney Milan saga, but I cannot quite believe that today's development is that the president-elect of RWA lied about knowing Chuck Tingle.

Wait, what?
I'm almost impressed by the RWA's implosion. If they had deliberately said "Hey, let's self-destruct," it couldn't have happened this thoroughly. But here they are.
