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....
Uh, are we gonna fight, or is there just gonna be a monster sarcasm rally?

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."

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
(offers Rhiannon hot and cold running groupies and things)

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.

Beth, Plainsong disturbed you? Really? But it's such a gentle book.
Rhiannon, nononono, the groupies are there to peel grapes for you, and bring you lurvely things to nosh. For the schoolwork and shopping, you need minions. How many?
I'm just starting the book Matt (beth's DH) loaned me, a biography of Bert Jansch called "Dazzling Stranger". Already fascinated - and a longtime passing acquaintance with Jansch just makes it more so.

Does anyone have any of Deb's out-of-print books that I could borrow and read during Xmas break? I'm a-gonna buy Weaver, but I'd love to read your other stuff.
