Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

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."

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

Anyone looking for a medieval gay romance, check out The Scottish Boy by Alex de Campi. It's a good read.

I love how good-natured all the well-actuallys are in the comments.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Even the people who didn't like it were kind. Which I love. It's got just enough history to be tasty but accuracy? Not what I was looking for.

It had some good cliff hanging chapters which were wrapped up rather quickly. I crowdsourced the ebook but I will buy a copy because I enjoyed it. The author is recording the audio and I hope it turns our good. I will probably try that one, too.

I realized I still haven't named my new Kindle! Previous device names include:

  • Skindleshanks (replaced after water damage)
  • Booky McKindleface (stepped on)
  • Sir Readsalot (cheapo backup Kindle, in a drawer somewhere)

I feel like I pretty much peaked with Skindleshanks and now I'm at a loss.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

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

Cruel to be Kindle?

I thought that it might have a certain appeal to some of the Buffistas.

For Dread Nation and Deathless Divide - I came across information about Mary E. Pleasant and wondered if one of the characters was based on/inspired by her.
