We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

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."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I loved Sarum, absurd multigenerational incestuousness nonwithstanding.

His other England book Forest, lost me about 40 pages in, right after the deer sex scene told from the pov of a stag.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

right after the deer sex scene told from the pov of a stag.

You prefer to look at things from a more doe-like angle?

I prefer my reading material to be sans animal-pov-sex-scenes entirely.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Dang, you're fussy.

So, no Anita Blake books, then?

There's bestiality in those too? I thought it was just vampires.

Oh, no -- Anita has other lovers of the were- persuasion.

You see, in the crazy melty world known as the Anita Blake-verse, there are werewolves. And wereleopards. And wererats. No, seriously. Wererats. (That was the point where I lost all ability to take the books seriously.) And other were-types that I can no longer remember.

And Anita has fucked the leader of all of the groups, I'm pretty sure.

I don't think she's done Rafael, King of the Rats, has she? He's the only one who ever struck me as legitimately sexy.

I doubt she's done any of them while they're in their animal forms, either, because Anita's a Good Girl (tm).

I don't think she's done Rafael, King of the Rats, has she?

Maybe she actually has standards. Or, singular, standard, and its NO RATS.
