Same wrong thread as Laga - but you know fits here a little because - editor humor.
Sunnydale's got too many demons and not enough retail outlets.

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."

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I'm currently reading the first Dexter book. I haven't seen the TV series yet, but I'm loving the book.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
Although I think I've just figured out the Big Twist and am mildly curious to see how it plays out and whether it really matters. I'm reading quickly now since I just want to know if anything cool awaits me at the end;
Polter-Cow, not much cool happens at the end. It's entertaining enough and the biggest twist to me is the relationship with the doctor at the end as that was the least predictable.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I'm currently reading the first Dexter book. I haven't seen the TV series yet, but I'm loving the book.
The first season follows the first book pretty faithfully, up to a point. After that, the books and the show diverge wildly. I still haven't read the third one as I've heard that it's nowhere near as good as the first two.

Anyone here read Ecstasy and Me, Hedy Lamarr's autobiography? Is it any good?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Literary Buffistas, I can't find if I've asked this before:
When I was a youngster, there was a scifi book about a boy who investigates a cave that is rumored to be haunted. Actually, a spaceship crashed there years before and Bad Aliens had enslaved the Good Aliens to do their bidding.
The Good Aliens each were part of a collective - a TV-looking-thing that was the "Think Think", long-fingered critters that lived under rocks that were the hands, one critter that was the eyes, one that was the ears, etc. The protagonist befriends a young "think think" and works to free the aliens.
I cannot remember what this is called.
Do any of you know?
