I think she was pointing out that it coincided with our talking about Nancy Drew books, not with the movie coming out.
Yes, this.
Although sumi's suggestion is awesome.
Up until the punching, it was a real nice party.

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."

Points upthread and to cable drama.

Why is Amazon saying that the illustrated Stardust won't be released until August. I'm positive I saw it in a bookstore a few weeks ago. (At least, I'm 90% sure I did.)
