Buffistas

You know what they say about payback? Well I'm the bitch.

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 yam what I yam and that's all what I yam," -- Popeye

Perhaps the Liaden universe? [link] I was hooked several decades ago by Agent of Change, which is more action-adventure-y, but there are more fantasy and romance-y books in there as well.

Also consider anything by Diane Duane. Lots of series to choose from, in a variety of genres.

Ooooh. Also Janet Kagan is a favorite of mine, either Hellspark or Mirabile.

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

and then something called the Fourth Wing series, which I presume is this?

When I was in Borderlands last, my friend Eleanor was gleebling with two customers about this series. It is White Hot among a certain demo.

Apparently there's a very spicy Zaddy.

Megan, the ones you listed are the ones everyone is always squealing about on TikTok. I’m seconding Shadow and Bone/Six of Crows series by Leigh Bardugo. And maybe something by Lilith Saintcrow (she has a couple different series).

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

Yes, I've read both of the spicy duo. Lots of dragon sex. Or sex because of dragons. And silly teen angst.

What does this even mean?

Apparently there's a very spicy Zaddy.

And this?

Wait, scratch that, I don't think I want to know what that means.

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

Shadow and Bone/Six of Crows

Six of Crows over Shadow and Bone would be my 2 cents

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I pre-ordered Paladin's Faith. Having a sleepless night, I saw it downloading at 12:33 am. I, of course, started on it right away. There are serious things going on, but I found some gems of humor early on. In this case, the Paladin is described as looking like he had a woodchuck latched to his jaw. Bishop Beartongue insisted he get a shave.
