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."
I ordered two copies of The Weaver and the Factory Maid from my local bookstore today.
Hey, is the bound version of all of Fray available now? So I can order it?
ION, while in my local bookstore, I snagged a copy of Fighting the Forces, the collection of lit-crit about Buffy by the folks who run www.slayage.com. What I've read is pretty good but I'm already annoyed at the writer who describes Buffy/Spike fic as "slash". Argh.
Hey, is the bound version of all of Fray available now? So I can order it?
Yup. It came out this week.
It's good to be good, it's better to be lucky. Much luck, Deb.
Just for fun:
I've bought the following books for my parents (most from a wishlist). There are more planned, but I have to do some checking first.
- "Reading Lolita in Tehran : A Memoir in Books"
- "The Golden Ratio : The Story of PHI, the World's Most Astonishing
- "Crossing Vines: A Novel (Chicana & Chicano Visions of the Americas, V. 2)"
- "Dream Jungle"
- "Viola Martinez, California Paiute: Living in Two Worlds"
- "Brown-On-Brown"

I was in my awesome local mystery store (Murder Ink), and asked the guy if they had Weaver, and he found it on the shelf for me. They only had the one copy out, but he said they have a bunch of customers who will be THRILLED to read it, due to Anglophilia and love of old and/or creepy things.
For the record, this guy is the most helpful bookstore employee ever. The last few Christmases, I've walked in with increasingly random requests for recommendations, and he always finds me the best stuff. This year I asked for books having to do with autumn, and he pulled two right off the bat.
Jesse!
Not only do you rock, but you just won the East Coast tour jersey, if you want it! Verified unprompted store sighting!
E me with the current address. It's this jersey:
I will confess that I am unlikely to wear shirts that say things on them, as cool as that one is. But thanks!
Also, as Murder Ink is approximately one block from Jo's work, she should go in and talk to a weekday staff person about it, too.
Can somebody stop me from having the "Romance is not all generic drek" conversation again? In another forum?
