Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

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."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Like Water for Hamantaschen?

I thought it was 'Miriam's Kitchen' but a google search only turns up results for a non-profit.

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

Julie and Julia.

Is that what you're thinking of?

Yes!

Julie and Julia.

For sure, but I only like to put a few non-fiction on there.

Because books.

This looks pretty good: The School of Essential Ingredients. It's a novel, too.

Because books.

Also Chocolat by Joanne Harris, and if I remember correctly Amy Tan's Joy Luck Club had a whole lot to do with food, too.

The Last Chinese Chef

How funny, one of the salonistas was just raving about A Cup of Light (by the same author) this morning.

Any classics besides Tom Jones? I don't want to have to resort to The Jungle.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Gabriela Cloves and Cinammon. But food was important to most of what Amado wrote.
