Woo! Come back to chat about it when you are done! I will be slowly tapping out a review in the next days -- hopefully I can get it done before surgery. (I asked for a local, but it has to be a general, dammit.)
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

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."

Has anyone read the YA book Shiver, about a young woman and a young werewolf? I read it yesterday and really liked it and am thinking of buying the sequel today!

Because books.
I haven't yet, but I gave it to the neighbor kid, who loved it, and I just loaned it to my niece.

I picked up a copy at the library sale and currently have it about 3 books down the to-be-read pile. Glad to see the rec.

The Soulless manga is out (and it's adorable!), and the manga for Changeless should be out in late November.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Jilli -- I read the last Vampire Kisses book! I honestly didn't expect it to end the way it did. I was totally expecting some soul-searching conversation about how being a vampire is not what it seems, etc., and that Raven would end up choosing to stay human and end up with Trevor.
It was very sweet, and a great distraction last week.

Teppy, I had the same thoughts, in a no, no, no! -dreading sort of way. So I was absolutely thrilled that Raven became a vampire! (Of course I was.) But besides my obvious biases, I was really glad that the author didn't take the expected, here's your After-School Special Message -sort of ending to the series.
Hmmm. Maybe I'll reread it tonight. It was so cute!

I have read Shiver. I liked it well enough but not enough to wait and then buy the new book that came after.
I did, however, love her Scipio Races which was amazing. Highly highly highly recommend.
