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.
Danger's my birthright.
Buffy ,'The Killer In Me'
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."

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Ha! No, Dana. It's a comfort reread (of a sort).

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Just checking.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
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.
And, as of this weekend, K-12 workbooks.

LOL, I was tempted to re-read Domesday Book, but then thought it might be too much.
I just read my first Rhys Bowen book the other day, Sheryl! But it doesn't seem to be part of a series (In Farleigh Field).
I do suspect I may need to re-up my Kindle Unlimited subscription if this goes on very long...

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
What series, Cashmere?
Last year I stressread over 200 books (almost all gay romance). I am scraping the bottom of the barrel.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I tend to gravitate toward the dystopian. I started re-reading Station Eleven but I decided I should finish The Secret History since I'm already halfway through and because someone from work loaned it to me.

Because books.
Yeah, I am really tempted to dip into The Stand right now.
Cashmere - Mar 17, 2020 4:47:04 pm PDT #25706 of 28195
Now tagless for your comfort.
What's the series, Cash? Sounds good
-t, it's the Mahu series by Neil Plakcy.
I have been recommending The Doomsday Book to people who want a pandemic read.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Thanks!
Whoa, there's a lot of them. Nice.
