The Ancestor's Tale - Dr. Richard Dawkins
Ursula, Under by Ingrid Hill
Had never heard of it when I bought it, but it was quite good actually.
War and Peace
Things Fall Apart
Invisible Man
1984-George Orwell
Too Much Too Late-Marc Spitz
Pulled in some stuff from a used book store and a Barnes & Noble today:
Yasunari Kawabata -- Beauty and Sadness, Snow Mountain
Yukio Mishima -- Sun and Steel
Natsume Soseki -- Kokoro
Tomorrow Barnes and Noble is having a book fair for my local library. 15-25% of puchases will be donated to my library, provided you have a voucher. So I am debating about what I want to buy.
Other than that, the last book I bought was my class catalog for university!
Maggie Cassidy by Jack Kerouac
I think mine was the Canterburry Tales, with original middle english for six bucks at B and N.
Good job! I've heard great things about that book. :)Quote:

Mr. Monk and the Two Assistants by Lee Goldberg, the fourth novel based on the TV series. Now while this is a good thing the irritating thing is that unlike the three previous novels that debuted paperback this one was done in HARDCOVER which of course annoys the daylights out of me when placed next to the others on the bookcase. Even worse, Tina from News Outlet four stores down from the Bookery says it's selling so they'll probably do more that way. Sigh a year for the paperback and a donated hardcover to son Jim who surprised me by being a Monk fan (he's not a Columbo fan).
hmm the last book I bought was tess of the the d'urbervilles, and ive just finished reading it! Very good book!
Blood County by Curt Selby (loved I, Zombie 4.5/5, Selby is the pseudonym of Sci-Fi writer Doris Piserchia)
Teenage Monsters by Mike Sharlow
Demon Theory by Stephen Graham Jones
Notes from the Underground-Dostoevsky
Which translator(s)? Assuming it wasn't the original.
