Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good  

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."

Always Anti-fascist!

I'm such a moron...I'm happy like I wrote the damn thing. B. org just brings out the Leni Riefenstahl in me. But not in a creepy, fascistic way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

No worries, erika. I do that, too -- you should have seen me showing people around the city last weekend (no, really, you should have) -- like it was my own thing that I was bringing out just for them.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

hun e, I have it on hold at my library. I think I've read everything else Shinn has written. I love her Angel series. I found Archangel on a fluke when I was sick and picking up a mindless book at K-Mart to read in my misery. When I finished it, I immediately started tracking down her other books. Ok, not immediately, but as soon as I started feeling better.

I think a lot of people feel that way about NY, Jesse.(It's another place I've only seen on TV or in movies, right now, though.)

Meanwhile, back at the Hall of Justice...

yeah libkitty, I've read her archangel books (most of them, I think). That's why I picked her up. I've just started her Heart of Gold. Hopefully I'll get well into it this weekend.

Oops. That's what I meant. You knew that, right?

Herding cats for fun

I enjoyed the characters in Angel-Seeker, the latest Samaria novel. I picked up Archangel purely to get a better look at the pretty cover, and got sucked right into the tale.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

First off: Vimes. Any book wherein we get to spend time with Vimes is a good thing. Second: Vetinari.

Veni vici...Vetinari

Art Crawl!!!

I found Jane Smiley's A Year at the Races at the library. I'm excited to begin reading it.

I just got recommended (at Amazon) an Edwardian mystery written by Marion Chesney. Has anyone her read her mysteries?

I haven't read her mysteries, sumi, but I recall enjoying her Regencies.
