The Monster at the End of This Book was also one of my favorite books as a kid, and it was the first book I bought for my older nephew when he was born.
Say! look at you! You look just like me! We're very pretty.

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."

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I felt so bad turning the pages and destroying Grover's hard work (and upsetting him horribly) and, yet, I couldn't NOT turn the pages.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, oh, I think this is the book that I stopped reading because I was upsetting Grover! Yeah, that's the kind of child I was. What? No, I don't have trouble separating reality from fiction, why do you ask?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
My copy was in tatters because Mom and I would take turns trying to hold the pages down while the other turned them.

Powell's sent me this review today and I thought that it was something that the Empress might be interested in.

This piece about Prince Charles and his book about organic gardening may also be of interest to the Empress.

Punishingly Intricate
Right now I am reading The Road as quickly as possible because I need it to be over fast so I can stop being so afraid of having nightmares about it. I think it's beautiful but ...sheesh... what am I going to read after as an apocolypse cleanser???
