But I never made any happy postings about those books so evil_rodent might still win. At least against me. *G*

Oh, I also own that Finding Serenity book. And the sequel, Serenity Found. (And I will never ever read that essay by TwoP-Jacob in one of those.) Also, even more books about Buffy and one about South Park.
Yeah, we're all dorks.
Is that Twin Peaks-book good?

[mareen]

The Twin Peaks book is excellent, as is the one about the X-Files. I used both of them for my thesis.

Good to know! *adds twin peaks-book to amazon wishlist*

[evil_rodent]

You two are cute! :D
Some of those books sound quite interesting. Tempting...

[thefabone]

I can recommend Slayer Slang. At least if you're as much of a language nerd as I am. It's more of an introduction to linguistics using examples from Buffy dialogue though. To be honest, most people would probably find it boring. Not me.

[mareen]

See above. I liked the book about the X-Files and the one about Twin Peaks. I can definitely recommend those two.
I also own
http://www.amazon.com/Textual-Poachers-Television-Participatory-Communication/dp/0415905729/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1295737694&sr=8-1

Which is also quite good, but a lot more scientific fact-ish than the other two.
