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."

Bread Mage made me cry, although some of that may be down to all the everything. Still, another really good T. Kingfisher book filled with well drawn characters. And some stuff genuinely surprised me, which can be fun.

Anyone want to watch and post the hugo/notahugo

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Bread Mage made me cry, too. I really enjoyed it, though.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I just got it ... looking forward to it! (and, since almost everyone seems to have sourdough starter, the paper - in its children's page - said kids could treat it like a pet ... it needs feeding and care ... but you never have to walk it or clean up after it).

Bread Mage was one of my absolute favorite books of the summer.

I've enjoyed everything of hers that I've read - a limited number, I have to admit. I look forward to exploring more of her writing ... I just have a large number of books on my e-reader. And, having just moved, a certain amount of my time has to be devoted to unpacking .... mostly books. sigh ....

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I've been reading the Paddington Bear chapter books to ltc, and she loves them. Any suggestions on other good chapter books for an almost 5 year old? I really like that each chapter in the Paddington books is it's only little story because if chapters end on cliffhangers there is sometimes a tantrum for another chapter.
