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'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

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 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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wait there was a limit of 4 books? For what reason? What possible reason?

The betting in blog comments is that a semi-literate screener is confusing the limit on *matchbooks* with the limit on *books*. But he was pointing to a book when he made the comment.
