Stapelschuldgefühl: the feeling of guilt experienced when buying new books, even though you have a stack of unread books at home.

Does anyone know if theres a word for "I've not only run out of shelf space, I've run out of house-space for more bookshelves!"

I just got the pun. Team spirit! It's about a ghost haunting the football pitch.

"How did you two meet?"

"He saved my life. I was an ex-special forces with PTSD and begging on the streets ..."

This has got to be comedy, right? Or a very earnest action hero comic written for Andrew Tate fans.

Okay, having a party in the sci-fi castle, with thin starving and terrified peasants outside the castle gates should've been clued me in, but now Luke is wearing a gothic blouse (with ruffles!). This is totally a vampire story.

I came here to add two books so I wouldn't forget about them. I got so excited over the first that the second has completely slipped my mind.

Victoria Lacy was just introduced when the Imperial March segment of "Overcoming the Past" from the Obi-Wan Kenobi theme started blaring. If she turns out to be the villain, I'm ... I don't know, celebrating with a Star Wars marathon?

You might've heard of "Out of the Dark". It's the book where aliens invade Earth and are kicking ass until <spoiler>vampires come out of nowhere to save the day! It's like "Independence Day" had a baby with "From Dusk Till Dawn"!</spoiler> It's the SF equivalent of junk food.

"Into the Light" is the sequel.

I am so stoked for this weekend, where the plan is to splurge on this guilty pleasure.

This is the best kind of children's story, the kind that doesn't dumb things down for children.

Lovecraftian horror for the information age. Not the best, storywise; brilliant concepts, though.

I didn't mean to start a new book, I was just curious about how you would write about ideas that resisting spread. Before you know it, I'd read two chapters and just had to know more.
