Welcome to Litsy!

Still reading this. 🙈 @TheKidUpstairs

Also, I‘m finally being tested for allergies (for the first time in my life). Guess what the biggest bump is for?

Got to love a Buffy reference. But the nod to James Marsters who reads the audiobooks is even better. #BTVS #BuffyNerd

This post has next-to-nothing to do with books but...I found this scythe while antiquing today & couldn‘t resist channeling my inner #Buffy. Where‘s my #ScoobyGang at?

A snapshot of what I read this year. It didn‘t all make it over to Litsy. But I had A GREAT year of reads. The last book I read in 2019 with just days to spare was Sorcery of Thorns. Loved it and planning on reading more Fantasy in the new year. #LibrariansLitsy #Comics #Graphicnovels #xmen #BTVS #Angel

Well, this was... interesting. I‘m kind of on the fence on this one. On the one hand: more (new) Buffy! yay! On the other hand: reboot weirdness (and some awesomeness: hello confident and out Willow!!) and I‘m not sure how to feel this revision of my fave show. I‘ll keep reading and give it a chance cause I was engaged reading this first volume of the new series and I do like the art. #buffyforever #btvs

I'm not totally sold on this #comics reboot of #BtVS but I'm intrigued enough to keep reading. It goes back to the beginning of the story, but it's set in present day. Some characters who didn't appear until much later (Spike, Druscilla, Anya) are there from the beginning and other characters are slightly changed (Willow is confident and an out lesbian, for example). I'm not sure how I feel about the changes but I'm open. I love the art!

Am I starting this #audiobook based pretty much solely on the fact that James Marsters aka Spike from #BtVS narrates it? Yes, yes I am.

There are a few incredibly moving scenes in this volume. Buffy, having given up her superpowers to escape an internment camp for people with magic, sees a guy harassing a woman. She moves in to fight this huge guy. At first you think she's lost, but then she's out of control beating the shit out of the guy, and breaking down. Faith arrives out of the blue to help Buffy just when Buffy needs her most. Plus, Spike and Buffy are too cute together.

Honestly one of the things in life that gives me the most joy is Faith showing up to help Buffy. I am admittedly also a big Spuffy fan, but sometimes I think, well if Spike died then Buffy could be with her soulmate Faith?? Faith + Buffy = ❤ #Comics #BtVS

I out of the blue remembered I wasn't actually caught up on the #BtVS comics, and lo and behold the branch of the library I was working at today had the first two volumes of season 11, plus a Giles side story! #Comics #Buffy
