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."

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Congrats, hippocampus!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Congratulations!

Because books.
So many books, and even now, so little time.

First, congratulations!
Second, a question for the Dresden Files readers. I've just started the 3rd in the series. The first two I thought were a bit heavy on the non-stop brutalization of poor Harry. Seriously, dude has sustained a whole lot of bodily injury and peril. So I am hoping there might be a bit more balance to come. Like maybe 50% of the book is Harry getting beat up by various entities or bad guys instead of 90% Harry getting beat up? Maybe some more time spent on investigations and interpersonal relationships and less on broken body parts?
Just wondering if maybe I should turn my attention to something a bit gentler. I do enjoy the actual prose, but am finding the stories a bit too one note.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Yeah, no, Harry pretty much gets his entire ass kicked over and over by like a gazillion different entities, both human and non-human, throughout all the books. (When he's not describing sex in a really off-putting way.)

Sorry to hear that, but there is plenty in my to read queue that isn't all kick ass all the time.
