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."

What is even happening?

I'm really sorry that in all my time here, I have failed to present myself in such a way that it would be a given I would think it was terrific to be supporting a cause like this--in such a way that it would be clear I was simply making a wisecrack.

Cindy, I was totally on board the wisecrack bus. I actually had the same reaction. Totally a good cause, excellent idea, just... yeah.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

This is fabulous.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

It really is fabulous.

Smart Bitches are fabulous, and those covers are SCARY! My god!

I've been really wanting to read the gay romance novel they reviewed recently (I'd been wanting to before that, too). Must go get it somewhere....

I love the comments thread devolves into a discussion of where to find the best Aragorn/Boromir slash. heh.

OK, this SO would not have happened without the movie.

Has anybody read the Honor Harrington books? A friend just recommended them to me, saying "If you liked Miles Vorkosigan..."

Really? I haven't read them (although I've read all the Vorkosigan books). Some of my Vorkosigan fan friends totally trash HH and Weber. I've gotten sort of a Bujold is to Weber what Buffy is to Charmed vibe out of the discussions. On the other hand, my Dad really likes Weber's writing. He's more old-school, F. Pohl/Asimov/Golden Age of SF-ish than I am.

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

I love the Vorkosigan books, but couldn't stand Mary Sue Honor Harrington. Definite varying mileage.
