Buffistas

Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good

Closed Threads

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

My friend Tami has threatened to beat me upside the head if I do what I did with OotP and read it in one sitting.

Ok, this seems completely normal to me. The thought of putting down an engrossing book to "save" it? Is like telling a junkie to only push the syringe down HALFway.

I love being that engrossed! All day readAthon! Sounds like fun. Throw in a basket of chilicheese fries, and I think I'd take it over an orgasm.

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

DH will be at ComicCon when our copy arrives, so I get to read it first. Yay!

I haven't read a new-to-me full-mind immesrion I-frickin-LOVE-this book in SO long. I am jonseing. I have fines at the library, I have gone through my friends' bookshelves.

I KNOW my little sister has a stack a mile high...but she's 70 miles away and spening money on gas to visit isn't doable. Damn, I haven't seen my fam since April.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Of course, I just realized that I'm going to be at a science fiction convention the weekend it comes out, so there's a possibility I might be able to find it...:)

You might be beaten to death with a replica light saber.

Be careful.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Jo Rowling's Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will reach bookstores in the United States, Canada, Australia and Britain on July 16, 2005

Noooo! Italy! Where's Italy??

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

We've ordered the British edition, as DH insists so it'll match all our previous HP books. And with family finances as they currently are, I can't justify buying an American copy just to read it when everyone else does. So I'll be a little behind.
