I'm nearly finished the first of the Dresden Files series. I don't know what I was expecting, but I am finding it amusing. A plus for me is it having a bunch in the series.

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 had been reading mysteries for the last couple of years to cope with the general mess the world is in. Now I'm reading Defoe's "Journal of the Plague Year" and a history of the Spanish Influenza. I find it comforting to know that everything could be way worse.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
What's the series, Cash? Sounds good

Jim Butcher has some writing tics that he never loses throughout the series, but I think the Harry Dresden books start to get really good about book 4 or 5.

I'm looking forward to going through the whole series. It is solid distraction.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I've been reading the nominees for the Agatha Awards, given at Malice Domestic. Malice was supposed to be the first weekend in May, but has been postponed.
Current book is the latest in the Lady Georgianna series by Rhys Bowen.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I've been to anxious to read the past few days and have had no opportunity to listen to my audiobooks. I'm still working my way through The Dresden Files audiobook, and I was also listening to Elena Ferrante's My Brilliant Friend, and I was loving it.

Ha! No, Dana. It's a comfort reread (of a sort).
