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."

The audiobooks of this series are SO GOOD. I was especially impressed with the narration in Harrow because the first-person narrator during the second-person narration bits was able to be exactly the right voice without being objectively spoilery. I suspected, but I didn't *know* until I was supposed to.
Utterly brilliant.

Ooh. I haven’t listened before, I am really looking forward to the experience (once I finish listening to MurderBot, which I am also enjoying very much)

She really did. She was trying to get into an experimental study until recently.

Today’s first vintage gothic romance indulgence: The Night of Four Hundred Rabbits by Barbara Michaels. Yes, I bought it for the title.

... dammit, the rabbits are a symbol of drunkenness in Aztec mythology. Not bunnies with occult powers.
The book is fun, but I did have my hopes up for bunnies of the occult.
