Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

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 haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Yep yep. All of the above, and romance novels.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Fanfic, y'all. Fanfic.
Seriously all I've been reading for MONTHS. I have a pile of books from the library glaring balefully at me, and yet I am re-reading fanfic like it's my second job.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Alllll the fanfic. So comforting. So soothing.

Thrive to spite them
I am just plowing away at fanfic. I keep staying in my comfort categories but that is all I'm reading.
Although I keep stumbling on stories that I didn't check to see if they were finished and getting really into something that hasn't been updated in years.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Romance novels and fanfic are essential services.

Because books.
I've been reading Cat Sebastian and delving into some historical romance I've never tried. I want to get Slippery Creatures, but I still have a bunch of KJ Charles I haven't read yet. I think I'm afraid I won't love any as much as I loved the Society of Gentlemen series.
I also need to get back to Tyack and Frain!

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
I think I need to dive back into fanfic. I stalled halfway through *The Ruins* and haven't felt like starting up any new novels until I finish that one.

This is a valid concern.
