The water voles will get you!
I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.
Buffy ,'Get It Done'
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."

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.
I picked a hell of a time to reread the Imperial Radch novels, particularly Ancillary Mercy

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I read them last year and yeah, they are a hell of a thing, especially in the current environment! But I couldn't put them down once I got going.

Cold Comfort Farm is particularly interesting because it was SF when it was written: it was written in the 30s and set in the near future--there are videocalls!--but in a world where WWII never happened.
it's a great read though. So fun.

Our wings are not tired.
Silliest reason to appreciate Alexis Hall. Mysterious Letter has 54 chapters. My habit of snatching a few minutes here and there to read, along with my completist desire to stop at chapter's end are both served with short chapters.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Woohoo!
