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."

Thrive to spite them

One of the negative reviews for the Hamiltome I read was a complaint about the edges being ragged and not liking getting a damaged book. Feature it's a feature person.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Amy and aurelia, it's really enjoyable. I picked it up from the library because the there was a blurb by Deborah Harkness. Then when I was returning another book, there was another book with a Deborah Harkness blurb so I picked that one up too. I want Deborah Harkness to recommend books to me from now on.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

When I worked in a bookstore, we used to get returns All. The. Time. from people bitching that books with deckled edges were "damaged".

I mean, whatever, if it's within the return period and you have the receipt. But "idiot" is in your file forever now.

The status is NOT quo.

Strix and I have ALL TEH BOOKS. The credit is especially good because most of our Amazon dollars go to pet food.
