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."

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

I like it. The City in the Middle of the Night is my favorite, but I will keep reading the series that VGtD starts and I’m excited about the TV adaptation I just heard about.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Who's read Charlie Jane's Victories Greater Than Death?

Me! I liked it, although I bet I'll like it more as a show. Although I don't know how they are going to handle some of the characters, just visually.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Excellent and immediate feedback.

How about Cat Valente's Space Opera? Anybody?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

It's literally next on my reading list after my Ministry for the Future loan expires.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Space Opera is fun. Maybe a bit long, but it was an entertaining trip. You might appreciate it more if you read it between viewing videos of Eurovision song entries.

Space Opera is very fun. Read on Jess’s strong recommendation, as I recall

I love Space Opera! It's fun and weird.

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

Cat Valente's Space Opera

So good in print and 10000x better on audio. (It has been a comfort listen playing on repeat for me since the pandemic started.)

I've been wanting to listen to the audiobook. Her husband narrates it.
