Buffy ,'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
No sex in Bridge to Terabinthia, IIRC, but yes to the death.
This may be a horribly dorky suggestion, but what about Northanger Abbey? It's gothic *and* romantic *and* snarky as hell, and when I first read it at 19 I was completely awed by the fact that the author had started it at 17 and finished it when she was just my age. Really, Jane Austen's writing career started with teenagerly mockery of the badfic. Possibly that may hook some of them in?
So, a friend of mine just won a round the owrld trip worth 20,000 pounds. We were celebrating. I had beer and some Greek thing. But, holiday! Holy crap!

Jaysus. Is he going alone? Uh, is it a he?
She, actually, and she gets to bring three people. So far, it's her boyfriend, her best friend, and her sister. I repeat, HOLY CRAP. The worst part is how I completely would have deleted the email.

eta non drunken typing. Ish
THREE PEOPLE? That's a really cool prize. Mondo cool.

Holy crap, Jars -- that's freaking awesome.

I think mine was either Emmanuelle, Candy, or the Bible.
I think mine was the Arabian Nights set my parents tried to hide from us.
I think mine might have been a YA book, and then I quickly moved on to all the Jackie Collins on the book shelves.
And one more time, SO FREAKING JEALOUS.
