No, I'm serious. I thought "MM should read this." Then I thought "MM won't like it. It comes in the right wrapper, but it doesn't have enough...enough." Then I thought "I'd like to read MM's version of this."
Go write your book.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

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."

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Hil, I had that same reaction to that line in The Golden Compass. I really loved Pullman's metaphors and analogies.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Libba Bray's third Spence Academy book is out now — The Sweet Far Thing — and it's on its way to my hot little hands. I should have it in time to do nothing but read all weekend. It's over 800 pages — I guess she wanted to wrap up the story without writing a fourth book.

Because books.

I went to a B&N on the 26th, and they were ALREADY GONE.

That was charming.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Amy knows Libba Bray personally.
Check it out! She's got a glass eye from a tragic teenage mishap, and yet is still totally pretty. Also her musical taste is totally my age really cool.
