But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

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've not. I think Joe has it. Somewhere

If Joe doesn't have it, tell him I'm revoking his ComicGeek card this instant.

I think you would like Coraline and Good Omens a lot.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I have Stardust, which I think you would like. My Coraline is at school. Em would adore The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish. I have Sandman, if Joe is missing any. Although, I'm not sure I'd recommend it for you. I also have Good Omens, Mr Punch, and 1602 (Oh! You should read 1602! It's Marvel Superheroes in Elizabethan England and the colonies.). I am currently reading Neverwhere, but would gladly lend it to you when I finish.

Ummm...not that I'm a Gaiman fangirl or anything.

Yeah, I think Aimee would like Stardust, and much of Gaiman. Don't think she would like Neverwhere. Just an impression.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I could see it going either way. I'm a bad test subject, as I saw the BBC first.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Joe had some Sandman. He also has Neverwhere. And Good Omens.

We just need to find them all.

Or go to the bleeding library.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I love Neverwhere, but I think it helps if you're a big London geek.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

E-paper applications make me weak at the knees. I would love a sheet of 8.5x11 that I could print to from my laptop or desktop and then carry into, say the kitchen and have the recipe right there without having to take a computer in. Holds an image without power--that's hot.
