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 look more rad than Lutheranism

Quick question about Chapter 1: isn't Voldemort a NON pureblood? So his Hitler-like quest to purify the wizarding world is awfully self-hating. Which is, I guess, just like Hitler. Am I remembering correctly?

Am 100-ish pages in. Went hiking. Must read more.

Yes, you're remembering correctly, Steph. ( He's a half-blood. )

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Matt finished the book about 1115 - i had to be at work at noon. I stopped , got a pizza and it is going to be pizza wine and book - but I still had to come here first. Partly because I don't want it to end...BUT I can't wait.

Taking a break after the first 100 pages. She is good at pacing, isn't she? Such an easy read!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I just picked up my copy at Barnes and Noble. I still have to finish reading 6 first.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I'm doing an unspoiled chapter-by-chapter over at my livejournal. It should be fun, documenting how WRONG some of my guesses are.

Goodness. 500 pages in, and there's still a good-sized book left to read!

I'm on page 578. I want to know what happens, but I also don't want it to end!

Heh. I'm only on 284. Today has been a day of leisurely reading, snoozing, chores, and shopping. I'm trying to stretch it out. The reading, not the chores.
