Moominsummer Madness!
I got Nilly a Moomin when she visited San Francisco. She grew up with them.
Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

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."

There was also Tennis Shoes. I remember really liking that one.

I remember Theatre Shoes and Ballet Shoes, and I know I read a third one but I can't remember what it was. Looking it up on Amazon, I found a whole slew of "Shoes" books I'd never heard of!

Is this the same book that Emma Watson is starring in a new BBC adaption?

Somewhat random question, but what's the word for a book within a book? Like, when there's a book that a character is reading, but that book only exists within the character's world, it's not a real book? I swear I know a word for this, but I can't remember it.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Since it made me do a COMM: Johanna Linsay cover makeovers, from Smart Bitches Who Love Trashy Books.
I think the pink horsy one is my favourite.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Vonnie, I did enjoy this, for the record.
I made a post about His Dark Materials, if anyone's interested. The first section is not spoilery, and you can avoid the spoilery part.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Steph, I want to thank you for pimping Kiki Strike. I picked it up on Tuesday (while buying the newest Stephenie Meyer book for the kid) and I'm loving it! So fun!
Okay, it only took me 2 weeks to reply to this, but -- you're welcome! Isn't it fun? I'm hoping there will be more.
ION, I'm reading Sarah Monette's newest book, The Mirador, and I'm finding that I can't remember very much of what happened in Melusine and The Virtu, and I don't really want to re-read them. Which is making The Mirador a little confusing.
