Thanks, I bought it for an upper level English class and didn't know what to expect, I am happy to hear it is a good book :)
"Pirates of the West Country" E.T Fox
Well researched and racily written account of some West of England pirates.
(Declaration of interest: I am not the author, but do know him quite well)
Toward an Anthropology of Women, ed. by Rayna R. Reiter; bought it online but thanks to near incessant postal strikes I am yet to receive it. I ordered it for Gayle Rubin's 'Traffic in Women', which I've had for years in a critical anthology, but one can hardly refer to one of those in an academic work.
Just got back from Barnes and Noble:)
#1- Why I Write-George Orwell-at the moment I've just revived my addiction of Orwell while in Mexico. I re-read 1984, Animal Farm and read Burmese Days. I've never seen this one in any of the bookstores I've been to and it just called out to me.
#2-Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: And proud of it.:)
I had no idea that there were books like those?! Wow...Quote:

I can't buy a new one, because they haven't re-printed it in Finnish :bawling:Quote:

Those Who Seek by Daniil Granin
The Aquanauts by Daniel Bard was just delivered to me at work about 10 minutes ago. Paperback based on a TV series from 1960 I've been looking forthis on e-bay for almost two years with the attitude that all things come to those who wait--patiently. By-the-by no one has heard of this series and if it ever makes DVDs I shall be annoying the long suffering wife with a marathon viewing.
Fodor's Amsterdam
I bought an introductory book to philosophy. I LOVE it so far. Probably one of the best books ever.
Luigi Pirandello - Uno, nessuno e centomila
Adorable, unique, amazing :) Pirandello is seriously becoming my drug.
She
H. Rider Haggard.
dunno why, just thought of it as I was walking round the bookshop feeling a bit depressed and looking for an adventure.
I Just Want My Pants Back by David J. Rosen
I found three books I wanted...but I settled on this one because I saw it first...:) Lets see how it turns out!
Youth in Revolt, CD Payne. It was hilarious, and now I really want to go book shopping again.
Jinx (is this book named after me?!), Honk If You hate me, and Hollywood Hills.
Waterland - Graham Swift
Grendel - John Gardner
October Light - John Gardner
complete stories (1884-1891) - Henry James
Village Voice Film Guide edited by Dennis Lim.

Kite Runner -- as a gift for someone.

Walking the Trail (one man's journey along the Cherokee Trail of Tears
by Jerry Ellis
Got it on sale...I thought it would be about him walking the Trail of Tears and he would write about what happened in 1838 where ever he was at any given timer....it's really about him needing a woman.
