I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

Buffy ,'Get It Done'


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."

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

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.

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

Ooh, I had been waiting for that but it slipped my mind. Sweet, I still have some mystery Libro credits I can use to get it!

Update: I *do* like the characters. A LOT.

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

I have it waiting on Kindle and audio, but am suffering from "But if I read it I won't have it to look forward to anymore!" syndrome.

Oh good! I read the sample and was not sure how I felt about it, so that makes me feel better. I will not be able to listen to it until I finish Sorceress, though. I don't think switching between those two would go well. And I'm not even halfway through The Last Murder at the End of the World and I'm a year behind on the Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction! Ack!

Final update: okay, that was DELIGHTFUL. And now I desperately want to take a food/wine tour of Europe.

I know it's still off topic, but I only watched the first episode tonight because I don't want it to be over and there are only 6 episodes dang it.

The Pairing has me all verklempt. Good stuff. I don’t know if I need a full tour, but I could certainly go for some pastries and cocktails!
