I read WIFEY when I was twelve.
I vividly remember a bunch of passing around Forever in fourth grade.
Murk: But you're a God! The Sacred Glorificus! Glory: I'm a God in exile. Far from the Hellfires of Home and sharing my body with an enemy that stabs my boys in their fleshy little stomachs!

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."

Oh god, it all makes sense now ...
But... but... what about me? WIFEY totally trumps FOREVER in terms of the smut factor.
Was I impervious?
I feel like such a failure.

I think I write more actual smut than you, baby. ::smirks::

“Not dead yet!”
That's what I mean! Where did I fail?
I suck (no pun intended) at the smut.
I have, however, been informed that I do "elegantly sensual" very well, which is all well and good, but you know, sometimes, you just wanna hit the smut factor.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
What a loss. I think he's not only one of the three or four most important science fiction writers, I think he's simply been one of the best post-war novelists to come out of Britain.
His insight into media and our culture were profound and very influential on me.
