you can't say he's as wackaloon as Niven.
Ok yes.

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.

Has anyone here read Cory Doctorow's new book, Little Brother? It's getting lots of traction out in the SF/F blogosphere. I ordered it today, along with Maggie Helwig's latest novel, Girl Falls Down.

I've got it on hold at the library, but I don't expect to be at the top of the list for another month or two.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wondered if OSC would come off like an ass.
I'm so naive.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Gah.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
So I was right to continue my "no reading nonfiction by OSC" policy, then?

I was just putting some giveaway donation books on the "light reading" shelf and noticed a couple of Harlequins. Titles: "The Italian's Defiant Mistress" and "The Billionaire's Virgin Mistress." The latter appears to belong to a SERIES called "Innocent Mistress, Virgin Bride." I've never read a Harlequin before, but I think I clearly need to give these a whirl, right? If you don't hear from me soon, assume my brains oozed out my ears and call for help.

Hah! Sounds very like some things that have been mentioned on Smart Bitches, flea! We'll expect a full report.
