Did you all see this already, or am I actually the first one to post about it? I was missing four of the books and it was cheaper to buy them as part of the bundle.
Wesley: Hey. Hey, Gunn. Is something weird going on? … Charles, you just peed on my shoes. Gunn: I'll be damned. That's weird.

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."

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

It's a great deal, and benefiting World Kitchen. There are only two that I don't already have, but, yeah, the bundle is actually cheaper than buying them elsewhere. And only one of them is available through my library and I'd have to wait for it...ok, I'm convinced

I have been saying that I need to read the Murderbot series. It would be silly to pass this up.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It would. It's a sign.

All Systems Red is the only one that's acting wonky. It might be my phone, though.

Success! Restarted my phone and now all the books are where they should be.

The status is NOT quo.
Tep, you are going to LOVE those books.

The Incandescent is really good. Magical boarding school, mostly from the pov of a teacher and alumna. I am up past my bedtime from needing to finish it.

That's the new Emily Tesh, yes? I really liked her last book I read, although I cannot remember the name of it. The one that won the Hugo.
In other news, we read The Scarlet Pimpernel for book club (I listened to one of the multiple Librivox recordings), and I can just tell my sister will have loathed it. It's very overwritten, melodramatic, and tropey. Kinda dumb but also I think the source of a lot of tropes in modern genre fiction.
I am inspired to dig a little bit into the history of spy fiction because I wonder how this fits in...
