Still cannot get myself to stick with The Scorpio Races, so I am reading the Essential Bordertown, one of the last books in the incredible shared world anthology put together by Terri Windling.
How could I not love stories about runaway punk elves and teens?

Tentative booklist for November to help me keep the political blues away.

jmofo Best of luck. It‘s smart to prepare. Last year, I was reading the Transmetropolitan series which at times was problematic but it was good diversion. (edited) 6y
SkeletonKey @jmofo - Thanks! I‘ve been meaning to read those. 6y

I‘m feeling such a need to read older Bordertown stories but to get the original three anthologies I‘d have to drop a little under $90. Is that ridiculous? Gosh I‘m tempted. They‘ve been out of print forever and I‘ve been watching them basically since online bookselling was a thing. The price remains the same. 😭

*sits on hands*

Edit: tell me about your most outrageous book purchases so I feel better, LOL.

Karkar I wanted a bound set of the OZ graphic novels by Skottie Young so bad I paid $150 for them. Good thing is it is about that if you can find it online. 6y
SkeletonKey @Karkar - They look amazing though! I might have to check them out now. 6y
Chrissyreadit Haha! Most ridiculous would be 100$ for a textbook that can‘t be sold back, was listed as required and was never used. 6y
SkeletonKey @Chrissyreadit - Ugh, I‘m sorry. I can‘t even begin to total the amount wasted on textbooks. What a scam! 6y

'Where magic meets rock & roll'.
Enough said?
Bordertown is where Faerie and the real world overlap, both magic & tech have bad wifi signals, and runaways from both worlds go to find (or lose) themselves. The photo is of old 90s editions not on Litsy but were the start of this very all-night clubs, rock&roll magical land. Amazing authors contribute and a few novels resulted as well. Now I need to re-read...
