Oh, that is brilliant and awesome.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

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."

Hey. New board.
Today, I scanned/entered all of my books into Delicious Library. They're uploading into my librarything account as we speak.
I am disappointed that i only have 220 books in my apartment. It does not feel like nearly a large enough number, and yet I don't have nearly enough shelf space for the hundreds more I want to have.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Did I kill the thread? or the hot librarians made everyone quietly shelve themselves in their bunks?

No reference to Giles? Mr. Uber-Librarian himself? Sadly lacking.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I saw some books at lunch that piqued my curiosity. Anybody read them and got a review?
The new Chabon book The Yiddish Policeman's Union.
Tracey Chevalier's new novel about Wm. Blake. Burning Bright.

The new Chabon book The Yiddish Policeman's Union.
Saw a positive review of this in Entertainment Weekly. Looked interesting in an alternate-history kind of way. Plus, detectiving! Chabon read up on a whole bunch of noir authors like Chandler and Hammett before writing the novel.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
NY Times Book Review also had a positive review of the new Chabon. I know Mrs. Industries is super-excited. What's Kiki Strike? The delivery service business getting extra-oppressive? Or has she joined the military?
