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 think I originally got it because Pix recommended it, so there's that, too

I know I never post here, but while we're thanking for recs -- thanks everyone who talked about the Murderbot series. I devoured and loved them on Audible.

Thanks for the reminder! I was quite certain I had pre-ordered that but apparently I did not.

I'm already partway through it. Creepy and good.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

If there's anyone left who hasn't read House on the Cerulean Sea (I feel like I was the last one on the bandwagon, but I could be wrong), the ebook is on sale for $1.99. I bought the ebook even though I have a hard copy since I had digital credits on Amazon and I thought having a copy on my phone I could read whenever I had the whim might be nice.

I had listened to it but I bought the e-book just now also because $2. Sequel in a month!

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I've been meaning to read that, so I'm off to buy it!

I'm reading Casey McQuiston's new book (The Pairing), and I can't decide if I like the characters or not. Also, it's making me very, very hungry AND making me want to take a food and wine tour of Europe.
