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."

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

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
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

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

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.

Perhaps not the best word choice. There's a lot of mystery, which I quite like.

Our wings are not tired.
There is a great deal of WTF, but presented in a very intriguing and compelling way.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I could use book recommendations for my grandmother's 95th birthday. The last time I got Never Caught: The Washingtons' Relentless Pursuit of Their Runaway Slave, Ona Judge by Erica Armstrong Dunbar and Bonnie and Clyde: The Making of a Legend by Karen Blumenthal.
