Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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."

The status is NOT quo.

I think I originally got it because Pix recommended it, so there's that, too
I did! It's so fun!

Thanks for the reminder! I was quite certain I had pre-ordered that but apparently I did not.

I'm already partway through it. Creepy and good.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

If there's anyone left who hasn't read House on the Cerulean Sea (I feel like I was the last one on the bandwagon, but I could be wrong), the ebook is on sale for $1.99. I bought the ebook even though I have a hard copy since I had digital credits on Amazon and I thought having a copy on my phone I could read whenever I had the whim might be nice.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I've been meaning to read that, so I'm off to buy it!

I'm reading Casey McQuiston's new book (The Pairing), and I can't decide if I like the characters or not. Also, it's making me very, very hungry AND making me want to take a food and wine tour of Europe.

Ooh, I had been waiting for that but it slipped my mind. Sweet, I still have some mystery Libro credits I can use to get it!

Update: I *do* like the characters. A LOT.
