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

Those somehow did not make me feel like I should be working to try to figure out what was going on, I could just go with it. And you're right, Calli, there is a certain amount of trust involved

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

Am I about to DNF a 2nd work book club book in a row? We are reading The Hollow Kingdom and....ugh! Everything this book is trying to do I can think of another book that does that thing better.

POV animals and they're on a quest - Watership Down
Random poetic essays about the meaning of life - Space Opera/Space Oddity
Zombie dystopia - okay this one admittedly stumps me because I don't really do zombies, but enough people have recommended Feed I'm gonna say that one

So on the one hand I don't want to finish it but on the other hand I don't want to be the person who noped out of two books in a row either.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I vote you just reread Watership Down.

I second Dana. Watership Downs is one my comfort reads.

Rereading Watership Down is always a good choice (even if I could probably recite most of it from memory!)
