I hesitate to ask, since it's probably a no-brainer ("Why yes, Fay, in Jamaica we read it in Nursery, you fool!"), but have you read Mary Seacole's autobiography The Wonderful Adventures of Mrs Seacole in Many Lands? Because that's the last book I read online, and I loved the hell out of it.
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

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."

Well, that's a superhero in the making if ever I heard one! Armed with super alertness, caffeine power and amazing sonic hearing? Perhaps Battaccino? Batspresso? Batte?

Marginally less disgusting than the coffee that's passed through the digestive tract of some Vietnamese animal. bleah

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
For all my insomniac buffistas I offer you this description from Michael Frayn's Sweet Dreams:
And enjoys a perfect night’s sleep–deep, clear, and refreshing, like gliding down through sunlit water on a hot day; such a perfect night’s sleep that he is entirely unconscious of how much he is enjoying it, or of its depth, clarity, and refreshingness, or its resemblance to gliding through sunlit water on a hot day; so perfect that from time to time he half wakes, just enough to become conscious of how unconscious of everything he is.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Having had the coffee that's been through the animal's gut I opine that the bat in the machine is worse.
Because that's the last book I read online, and I loved the hell out of it.
Actually, no. I will check it out.

Cool! She is so much more fun than Florence Nightingale.The scene when she arrives at her brother's hotel just slayed me. Also the bit when she's being toasted by the Americans in spite of being "yeller". Her response is fabulous.
