We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good  

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 am finding it funny, but I don't think it is in the same places that the author intended to be funny.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I just finished The Dogs of Babel, which I started out very lukewarm about, and ended up not loving, but being very moved by, which surprised me, as I'm not generally a mystery fan or a books-about-people-and-their-pets fan.

Skimming by - on the TB books - I said rabbit, rabbit on the first of the month for *years* and never remembered why or where I got it from!

3 copies of Weaver ordered and winging their way from Amazon....

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I've read about 90 books this year. Which is low - that is disturbing when you remember I am mostly unemployed.

Ann, that's a ferret.

King Rat

I've read this one several times -- it's one of my favorites. Excellent character study of prisoners in a WWII prison camp.
