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."

Now tagless for your comfort.

Taking note! The last couple of "takes" on Holmes I've read were major letdowns.

If John Watson was a trans man, and Holmes was actually a wickedly self-interested, brilliant, lesbian sorceress sharing a flat in a multidimensional city and they are solving a mystery that cuts across time and space?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I loved Mysterious Letter so so much!

It's pretty great. From what I can tell the author's other works have mostly been m/m romance, but I haven't read those. TAotML might be my favorite Holmes homage, though.

Alexis Hal is definitely mostly m/m romanceâ€”modern. But snappy language and chock full of some amazing representation.

Glitterland captured bipolar illness with comedic elegance and a sexy, sexy audio narration (same narrator as AotML.)

And Arden St. Ives gives me life.

AH's newest is coming out this summer. (Bated breath.)

Rock star!

ETA I had to search Twitter real quick. I suspected you might've gotten involved in that whole pasta thing but your tweet that was actually retweeted is perfection

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Wow, Jessica!

Climbed out of the fanfic wallow to share that we're getting a new Murderbot novella in April.

goes back to fic, knowing better than to poke the author but devoutly wishing they had kept up the series, as there can never be enough Goblin Emperor stories in the world and their take on Csethiro's sisters is glee inducing*

I do love a lot of Goblin Emperor fic, Amy yes!!!

I like nearly everything bigsunglasses has written, and bomberqueen17's Continuing Education series includes the tag "the fantasy of a world where everybody has good intentions".
