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 know, Amych!

I went, Temeraire's got a geeky girlfriend! ::flails:: so cute!

Also, check Naomi's LJ: she's going on a book tour! She's going to two stores in the Bay Area, in fact: Borderlands and Dark Carnival, in late July.

Speaking of author tours (NO, not one for me): who can I sweet-talk into going to the Pickerington OH B&N on the 28th of June? My favorite YA author, Ellen Schreiber is going to be there, and I want to get a signed book.

Lovey, I'd drive up there for you, but we won't be back from vacation yet.

BBC news item in which an excerpt from the Harry Potter pre-quel that was recently sold at auction is read. And in August a book is coming out that contains all the stories that were auctioned (includes stories from Neil Gaiman and Doris Lessing.)
