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.

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 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.
No, I've not read the latest Roth, but I am a big fan...the Breast being badfic, notwithstanding.
"Who's Your Daddy" is now mainstream. (I never knew it wasn't.)
So. Which of the following are too salacious for casual use: "sucks", "bites", "who's your daddy?"
The author of the article thinks 1 and 3 are okay, but 2 is too much.
While the phrase has its innocent overtones -- in the 1969 Zombies hit "Time of the Season," the singer investigates a potential love interest by inquiring, "What's your name, who's your daddy?"
Really? I never thought that was even slightly innocent.
Um, no... and mostly I'm subtext-impaired.
I always thought "who's your daddy" in that song was him asking "Is your father important in this town or can I do waht I want to you without getting in trouble?"
I think the next line of the song is, "Is he rich like me?" so I figured the singer was trying to figure out if the object of his attention would be impressed by him or not. (Me = not, by the way)
I figured that the daddy was the same sort of daddy in the phrase "sugar daddy" -- not quite a blood relation, though other fluids may be shared.
