I think I will probably have to reread Gideon first because I was having a lot of trouble concentrating when I was reading it and I'm not sure I remember much.
Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

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."

PSA for anyone planning on reading the new Allie Brosh book: it's fantastic, but if you struggle with grief or depression parts of it are really hard.

I ordered the new Allie Brosh, need to go pick it up at the bookstore (along with Vol. 1 of Saga, which I've heard enough about that I need to read).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm vaguely annoyed that I ordered Allie Brosh's book through a local (but not walkable) bookstore as part of a special event and I don't have it yet, but I also have multiple library books I need to read ASAP.

Of course it came in today's mail! AND I was one of the first whatever number of registrants for the event, so I also got a special print!

Next week ICON SFF festival will take place virtually via live streaming, and there are two live events with authors (in English) that might interest some of you. The first is a conversation with Daryl Gregory and Kelly Link (Monday, 5/10, 10:00pm Israel time), and the other is a conversation with Stephanie Burgis (Tuesday, 6/10, 4:00pm Israel time). The website is mostly in Hebrew, but I can help interested parties to buy tickets and access the live stream.

I just started reading Mexican Gothic today, and now I have to stop to pick up ltc from school. I don't want to put it down!

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.
