Oh, that is totally unreasonable of work!
Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

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."

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I have been reading/re-reading the "In Death" series by J.D. Robb. I've previously always just read them sporadically as they crossed my path at used bookstores, but I finally decided I want to read them all, in order. But there are over 50 books in the series (so far) so I really don't want to buy them! I started at the library, but the oldest books were only available as audiobooks, so that became my thing. I read other books as physical books or ebooks, I read these in the car when I'm driving. I'm up to book 27, but for some reason, it's just not available at my library. There are 2 copies, but they aren't available - not checked out, just not available. I went ahead and got 27.5, but now I'm torn about 27. I put 28 audiobook on hold, but rather than just skipping ahead, I put a physical copy of book 27 on hold. It's really dumb how much it's bugging me that I may have to read 27 in the "wrong" format!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Not dumb at all!! Format consistency throughout a series is important!
(See also, changing narrators midway through a series when the POV character is the same. DO NOT.)

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Since the city's going to be swamped with tourists and hottern' ever, that sounds like a good way to spend tomorrow.
