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."

Hm. I don’t know, I do feel like he has been suffering but now I’m wondering if I came to that conclusion too easily.

Well Jem really believes him, but then Jem wants to. I'm not as nice as Jem.

I really really want Jem to be happy, is what it is.

Yep. I really like the way Charles makes us want Jem to have a happy ending.

I started the "Creative Types" romance series by Joanna Chambers and Sally Malcolm. The first book is about a TV writer and his PA who is a secretly a big name fanfic author - it's not quite the gonzo celebration of fandom that Spoiler Alert is, but it's pretty fun. And I didn't realize until maybe halfway through that the TV show in question is centered on a vampire, so I thought I might mention that here in case it was of interest to anyone else

I kind of want to see the show (called Leeches, which is very cute, right?) - not as much as I'd like to watch Sanctuary Moon, but it does sound like the kind of thing I would at least check out

Because books.

I accidentally bought the first five books in the Temeraire series (I meant to buy only the first one for $1.99 -- the dangers of Distracted Shopping and Amazon's bevy of buttons to click) so ... I hope I like them? I loved the author's Sam and Dean fanfic so much...but I haven't had as much luck with some of her original fiction.

Our wings are not tired.

I really enjoyed the Temeraire series! I listened to the audio and could listen again.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I think you could probably return them if you don't like them.

I love the whole Temeraire series and probably need to reread soon.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

"Creative Types" romance series by Joanna Chambers and Sally Malcolm

I liked this series - fun but not the most memorable? Joanna Chambers is one of those authors I always *almost* love.
