While looking for a list of books by an author (Ann C. Fallon) I came upon the Internet Book List. . .it's like the IMDB, except it's for books!

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 hate that Peter S. Beagle, who is such a good author, has never been financially successful. I do wonder how someone else got legal custody of his mother.
I still think his adaption of LOTR was better than Walsh's. I wish PJ had gotten Beagle, instead of his partner and Phillipa Boyens.
Anyone reading Anansi Boys? Dear god, I am LOVING it.
I am, and I am. I'm maybe 2/3 through. Very fun. I do think I liked American Gods more, though.
I'm maybe 2/3 of the way through, too. I may go back and re-read American Gods when I'm finished. I really liked American Gods, but it was also intellectually tough slogging, for me.
I fear my book budget only stretched to Thud! for new releases.
I am JEALOUS of you Anansi Boy havers, though.
It and Coraline are the only two books I've bought for myself in months. I love my library.
Waiting for the library to get SoUE 12 into their system rather than this "on order" crap, would be nice, though
I got it from the library, as I am NOT one of the Buffistas who eschew the library since they can't stand to give the books back.
Me, neither. I'd rather have broadband and Netflix.
I buy print media on a regular basis, but it's comics. Grown-up books have fallen by the wayside. Or are obtained at the crack den that is Half-Price Books.
