wow, the title is bad. so is the description.
'Get It Done'
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."
Has anyone finished Breaking Dawn yet? I have to vent to someone about it!

I haven't read it yet, but I'm completely spoiled for it. I read all of Cleolinda's recaps and couldn't stop giggling in bemused horror.
I am Jilli. Hear me giggle.
I'll be honest, I AM planning on reading the whole trainwreck of a book. But I refuse to buy it new, so I'm stuck waiting until a copy turns up at Half-Price Books. But I can't wait to read the whole magical half-vampire baby BREAKING HER RIBS AND SPINE scene. I agree with Cleolinda, that part should be directed by Clive Barker or Cronenberg.
I'm just completely... agog (also please link me to Cleolinda!) I was so irked because the book read like 2nd or 3rd rate fanfic written by a teenaged girl who has never had sex and clearly has no idea what it might be like to have a kid!
GAH. I was so fucking... bemused! What sort of handwaving had to happen for her to get pregnant at all! Vampires=DEAD. Semen would also=DEAD.
Jilli, I can send you mine if you wouldn't mind sending it back when you are done (it'll go into my classroom library).
It's funny because I also read Host which she must have written in the interim. And it was a super slow beginning but a much more thought provoking book than any of the Twilight ones. If you dont know what it's about it's about an alien invasion of "souls" who come and inhabit human bodies to make the humans a kinder gentler race... creepy. But interesting).
I didn't even finish Twilight, but I've been following enough of the online discussion that I'm wondering how long it will be before the first real babies named Renesmee start showing up.
Kat, thank you for the offer, but I want my own copy to complete my set of Bad Vampire Books. Cleolinda's recaps start here: [link]
Heeheehee. Renesmee . Hee.
