Don't worry, B. I've been waiting for Wrath of a Mad God on paperback for almost half a year now. March isn't so bad. :p

Well the annoying part is that there is a hardback-sized paperback version of it in the bookshop!

I may re-buy some of the older books because they have made all the covers match lol.

Nah, really?

He's talking about buying them to own. Some people do that if a book is good.

Just finished The Stranger by Albert Camus again, and now am reading Why I Am Not A Christian by Bertrand Russell.

Oh mercy I hated The Stranger I hate Camus... oh mercy... oh... Forgive me, I had to read it for my European Civ and I don't find the idea interesting... because it was too dreamlike, you didn't know what was or wasn't real... kinda. Forgive me.

I'm reading X-Wing: Iron Fist because I love the series, but I keep on crying when Ton keeps on getting killed! Blast Aaron Allston and his ability to write well!

Oh stop it Mike. We love it when she suggests we get something from the library every single time we're having trouble finding a book. Also, the accompanying reminders that library books are, indeed, free, help a lot. :p

You're right!

You know, I probably would have known that if I had only gone to a library!

Some of us don't have money to throw around. :p

Anyway, finally finished my Dune book.

Now I'm reading: Prey by Michael Crichton.

They aren't free if I keep the books as long as I keep books I own. :p

Twilight by Stephanie Meyer. I'm just amazed that a vampire actually goes to High School

I'm just amazed that those pieces of trash actually became popular.

But that's just imo.

The Scandal of the Season by Sophie Gee.

A fictional account of what inspired Alexander Pope to write 'The Rape of the Lock.'

I'm not too far into it, but it's really interesting. The 1700s are very intriguing time period in England.

More interesting than the 1700s in America. :p

Almost done with Star Wars - Coruscant Nights III: Patterns of Force by Michael Reaves.

I don't think it's the best of the series...

All righty, On Writing by Stephen King.

Went fast, less than two days. Great read.

Now I'm on to The Highest Tide by Jim Lynch.

Just finished Choke, which was hilarious but also seriously bummed me out.

So now I'm going to finish Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy cause I need some silly, non-depressing comedy, lol.
