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."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

New Hannibal Lecter novel coming to a bookstore near you, and then a theater, of course.

Jesse, that sounds like a lot of fun.

(and slashy)

I'm so corrupted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I wouldn't say it's slashy in the implementation, but that's me. YSMV.

Oh, for God's sake, Harris. Let It Go. Didn't Hannibal wreck the character enough for you? It did for me. Argh.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Given where they left Clarice in the book vs. the movie, I think any film version is going to be in name only.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

It's a prequel, so cue more embarrassing pony-tail action from Gammon Hopkins.

Francis Crawford fans may enjoy the story of the zombified Master of Culter. Bwah.

Art Crawl!!!

JP Rowling reveals some chapter titles for book 6.

(I went to the website but so far nothing is happening there. Perhaps the clue is no longer up!)

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I'm trying to figure out how Octavia Butler's books all connect to each other. I just started Mind of My Mind and it seems to be in the same universe as Wild Seed, which I also just picked up recently but haven't read yet. Are the stories connected at all, and is there one I should read before the other? What other books are set in this universe? I know that Dawn, Adulthood Rites, and Imago make up the Lilith's Brood trilogy, and the two Parable books are connected, and AFAIK Kindred and Bloodchild stand on their own. Which ones am I forgetting? Do any of the series intersect with the other series at all?
