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 am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Apparently I read more fantasy novels than science fiction? Who knew

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

This is the same friend who wrote Inks, Jinks.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I highly recommend that book.

Now tagless for your comfort.

A readers' advisory consultant at work told us that when the world is a garbage fire, two genres of books increase in readership: romance and dystopian fiction.

One, because people want to lose themselves in happy endings, the other, because they want to know it could be worse.

I just got my second $20 amazon gift card for listening to my 3rd romance novel on audible this month.

I'm finding I gravitate toward murder mysteries lately, some good old-fashioned order-being-established-after-chaos

Yes I'm all about escapist romance and mysteries where the bad guy is caught and all is well in the end!

Now tagless for your comfort.

I haven't been a big mystery reader, but I found a series about a cop in Honolulu who is trying to solve a murder and comes out as gay. The whole series is kind of fun. It's only a little sexy and the mysteries aren't too difficult to figure out but I'm on the fourth book in the series so I like it.
