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."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
"The decision to not hyphenate "kids only" is likely related to the omission of the serial comma. I wonder if the author is British. I wonder if he sleeps at night."

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

I was very confused until I clicked the hyperlink and only part of it turned purple. Hee.
I've wanted to read House of Leaves for a while. It looks even more daunting now.

“Not dead yet!”
I just thought of a narrator who's both reliable and unreliable-- Briony in ATONEMENT. The epilogue of the book is just one big WTF when you realize what McEwan did with the narrative.
I wanted to smack him almost as much as I wanted to worship at his feet.

Oooh! Briony! I loathed her as much as I loathed Nelly Dean.
