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."

That flowchart is great! I'm not as big a fan of the magic for some reason (though I'm not anti magic books??).

I re-read Goblin Emperor this weekend, after finally reading Witness for the Dead. And then read a bunch of the fic. There's some excellently written fit out there, I just wish there was more!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Ooh, flowchart! And more recs. (rubs hands together). As a matter of fact, it was Fay who rec'd KJC to me.

It's all circlic, isn't it? Circleish? Circular.

The circle of ... books?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

And it rules us all.

I love most of what K.J. Charles has written; my entry point was the Magpie Lord trilogy and I've enjoyed the Sins of the City trilogy. The one-off books I've enjoyed most were Think of England and Any Old Diamonds, which brings in a character from the Sins of the City in one scene.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

::saving flowchart for later::

Choosing where to start still looks kind of overwhelming but I won't need to do it until I have gotten through more of my current Read This Next queue, maybe I will have more of a preference at that point

Piranesi appears to be on sale is anyone is curious about it

I just got it from the library and was very confused, tbh. Interesting but confusing.

It's got a very strong element of "WTF is going on?", for sure

There's too much WTF in my real life; I'd prefer not to deal with it in literature.
