I don't believe it's a series, sumi. (Although, me too. I may have gotten teary. A little. Um.)
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

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."

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Art Crawl!!!
That's too bad.
Of course, I cannot imagine somebody producing another big giant novel as good as the first one.

I'd love there to be more Jonathan Strange (and less Mr. Norrell!)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Didn't it take her 20 years to write this book? Of course, that's with a full time job as well.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
I still haven't read Jonathan Strange, although I bought it the week it came out. Bad reader, no donut.

If I only had a brain...

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I'm sitting at about 1/3 of the way through. I pick it up whenever I have out-of-the-house down time. It's just hard to carry around with me, rather than keep in the car, as it is a big-ass book.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I got it for Christmas. I knew I'd never get through it as a library book, and paperbacks that size tend to fall apart.

I bought JZ Sorcery and Cecelia based on recommendations here from Jilli and Betsy (I think).
Now you need to get her College of Magics and Scholar of Magics by Caroline Stevemer.
SF Chron reviewed a novel of interest for the board: The Letters of Mina Harker
Well, I guess I better go track that down.

Always Anti-fascist!
No, I've not read the latest Roth, but I am a big fan...the Breast being badfic, notwithstanding.
