Much to Kim's relief, I'm sure. Although, if we're wrong, that might explain the break-up. She seems more like vamp bait to me. Maybe it's her role in Batman.
Kaylee: So how many fell madly in love with you and wanted to take you away from all this? Inara: Just the one. I think I'm slipping.

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."

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

Anybody read her before? She was just interviewed on a local radio show, and it was hilarious. Totally dishing dirt on Revolutionary society.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
The name is familiar, though I can't remember reading anything specific by her.
That sounds like a fun read, though. I'll have to give it a look; I'm trying to find novels I can tie into American history classes for interdisciplinary stuff.

It might be a little too sexy, given what she was talking about on the radio, to teach in secondary. Of course, that might have just been her research and nsm the contents of the book. She was revelling in teasing the host with how UNpuritanical society was.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Ah, the adventures of Harry Potter and the rigged bet.

Up with the sun
So I remember reading a sci-fi book many years ago where the plot was that an alien race planned to exterminate human beings, but refrained because "there's only one of [them]" -- all human consciousness was connected into one, like in a jellyfish or slime mold but on a larger scale.
Does anyone have any idea what this was? I mentioned it to my husband recently, and he thinks I'm insane. Thanks.
