I could squeeze you until you popped like warm champagne, and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more.

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."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

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.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
The Huffington Post has a fun article by an author about the day last week she decided to hit the local bookstores and sign stock copies of her book.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That was charming.

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.

Has anyone here read Twilight, by Stephenie Meyer? It's YA, vampires, set in Forks, WA (where they really get all the rain my Bama relatives think we get in Seattle). I'm about 1/3 in and enjoying it so far.

I think we may qualify in Olympia. While we don't get the most inches of rain, we get more hours of rain than any place in Washington State - less sun, perfect for vampires.

My latest ambition for if I ever become an author successful enough to quit my day job is to move to Sequim--cool weather and mountains and oceans and everything there is to love about this region with only 16 inches of rain.
