I always thought the Amazon interface sucked.

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."
Barnes and Noble sent me a notice that the new Jennifer Crusie book was out. Isn't that odd?
Interesting mix.
According to a description from Jesse, I might have missed a Crusie. I need to do research.
It will either be "OMG, how clever," or very "WTF?"
Here's an OK review: [link]
They have had a blog with a live feed to lj about the writing of the novel. It sounds to me like it should be interesting.
It does. I may have to pick it up this weekend.
Even weirder, I saw a TV spot for it just this afternoon, on HGTV. Book spots are few and far between, and I don't think I've ever seen one for a Crusie book before.
The only ones I've ever seen have been if Patterson puts an Alex Cross book out. Like he needs the attention!
Like he needs the attention!
Generally the only TV spots for books are for authors who are already bestsellers. Not only is that the way publishers justify spending the money, once you're a bestseller you kind of have to stay one, or there's doom for all. Publishers will plan print runs based on your last book, and then they need to make sure all those copies are bought.
