Yasmin is super adorbs, too.
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

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."

Hugo winners are out!
Congratulations to A Memory Called Empire, both for winning and for being the only novel on the list I've read all through(I started two others but didn't finish, and haven't had a chance to read Gideon the Ninth yet).
And sympathies to our own FW, who placed but didn't win in two categories. Just wait til next year, as Charlie Brown says.

Harrow the Ninth, y'all. It is something else.

And in a pretty striking change of pace: The Honjin Murders is excellent. I wasn't sure what to expect, classic mysteries are not always all that satisfying, but this one has me hoping that a lot more of the Kindaichi stories get translated into English. Impossible crime, genius detective, family drama, '40s Japan, references to other mystery stories - if this is the kind of thing you like, you'll like this.

not your mom's socks.
The Space Between Worlds, you all.
Also, I loved The Midnight Bargain. It comes out October 13. Regency speed dating meets sorcery and feminism.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Nice!

How cool!

Wow!
