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 read Knut the Difficult's new novel, Superpowers. And I review it (briefly) here. Summary: I liked it, and I think y'all would too.

I liked it, too, although I haven't reviewed it yet.

I have Knut's book here at the beach, but I haven't gotten to it, since I'm in the middle of Skullduggery, which ROCKS.
Also (paging Fay and Polter-Cow) I need to note that nerdy!nephew who loaned me Skullduggery has also read Death Note and thinks it kicks ass right up until the end, which he hated.
I don't know why I was even a little surprised that he had read Death Note. The common geek ground between me and The Boy's nephew is just cracking The Boy up to no end.

Someone put together a fake ending that's pretty damn cool. He might like that one more.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Ooh? I haven't reached the end yet (although I'm somewhat spoiled), but I'd love a link to that for future reference.

The United States of Arugula has moved on to Alice Waters. It's not pretty.

I told him, but he says he doesn't want to read it if it's "not real."
But *I* bookmarked your post for future reference.
