A world of no.indeed.
Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

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."

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell is $1.99 on Amazon in case you haven't read it (I must confess that I haven't ... yet).

Our wings are not tired.
I did enjoy that one, Todd.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's a lot of book for $2

not your mom's socks.
Friends, a favor: Say I'm actually taking the much-much-much-needed vacation. Rec me a book you think I'd like?

So many choices!
I just finished re-reading The Book of Kells by R.A. MacAvoy
It is still one of my favorites. If I ever get to visit Ireland, I want to visit all the places mentioned in it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, speaking of recs, I think my best shot at a prize in the library's summer reading bingo includes a science fiction book with a female protagonist. I haven't read much science fiction at all (other than Bujold), so would love a recommendation!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I haven't read that since high school. I should dig it out.

Weeeeeell, Fran Wilde does some remarkable worldbuilding in Updraft.
(SF isn't my main genre either, so that's all I can rec off the top of my head!)

Funny story, I actually have read Updraft etc!
