I do not believe that these facts are unrelated, although that may be because I'm a mean person.
Did she play a lot of violent video games and end up killing someone? You may be on to something here.
Zoe: Nobody's saying that, sir. Wash: Yeah, we're pretty much just giving each other significant glances and laughing incessantly.

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."

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

See, that just sounds much healthier to me.

My only criticism was that the plot feels quite rushed in places, and I would have liked to see more from the girl's viewpoint. But it's a darn good fluffy, funny vampire rea

Ha! My mother met Lurlene McDaniels at a writing conference. Apparently she is extremely fond of mink.

If I only had a brain...
Dead mink, I'm guessing.

Indeed. Mom says she was a little odd, but generally quite nice and cheerful.
I just finished a book that I think would appeal to many people here: The Time Traveler's Wife, by Audrey Niffenegger. Has anyone else read it?

Kristin and someone else have, I think. And I really want to, it does sound really cool.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I finished it about four days ago. I've only really just recovered.

billytea, isn't it fabulous? What did you think of the ending? I was pretty devastated by Henry's death. I'd become so attached to him, and the whole thing with his feet was painful enough, but then for him to die like that so soon afterwards just seemed so monumentally unfair. But I wanted to see a little more of the rest of Clare's life, without him. I just don't want to believe that she did actually spend the next forty-odd years waiting to see him again, for that brief moment. I wanted better things for her, and Henry did too.
It's also just a beautifully-written book. P-C, I bet you'd like it a lot.

I thought it was a marvellous book. But I don't think I can consider it from any distance. It was too close to how I feel about my own situation.
