I've read good things about her, and have read some poems of her in anthologys, but have not run across any of her books. I'll have to keep an eye open.
Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

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."

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I thought I had, but on checking, I read something similar by Kelly Armstrong. Which was fine, if kind of fluffy.
But I'm hugely entertained that the teaser quote from the book on Amazon's site for The Good, The Bad, and The Undead is the following:
"I hitched the canvas strap holding the watering canister higher up on my shoulder and stretched to get the nozzle into the hanging plant...
Sounds riveting.

HA!
I've read the Armstrong books, too, and they're pretty "eh."
But at least I could finish them. The Harrison books....NSM.

I wanted to like them. But I don't.
Likewise. Read the first, couldn't finish the second.

That's exactly where I am. It's been on my nightstand for 3 days and I find myself re-reading 2 year old issues of Self instead.
NOT a good sign. . .

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
I loves me some Smart Bitches Who Love Trashy Books.
I saw a tiny b&w version of that first cover in an ad in Romantic Times. I snarked even then, but I had no idea how bad it was in its full-size, full-color glory.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I finished my other in-transit book in the Dulles airport last night and started reading Bell, Book and Murder by Rosemary Edghill on Jilli's rec. I'm liking it a lot.

Anyone read the Kim Harrison books, Dead Witch Walking and the like?
I've read Dead Witch Walking, and I'm halfway through The Good, the Bad, and the Undead. I'm entertained by them, and I like them slightly better than any of the Anita Blake books, but that's about it.

Oh yay! I'm glad you like it.

What. the. fuck.
At least one TSA screener is forbidding passengers to carry more than 2 books in carry-on luggage.
