Rob said:
Yeah, it is a book which a few people have recommended to me. I am not sure when I will end up getting around to reading it however.
Evil Eye said:
Yeah, I am really pleased with some of the books I acquired. They should prove for entertaining reading when I get around to them. Well with a few exceptions, which might be quite irritating.

Evil Eye said:It's a decent story and it has a bunch of interesting ideas. What more could you want?
Oh I am certainly interested in reading it. That by no means is the issue. It is simply that I have a lot of books to read. I own something like 400 books I still need to read. o.o;;

You need a holiday without internet access...
Well, that always seems to work for me.
Haha that does sound really nice. At the moment I am trying to address it through reading challenges. Aiming for 50 this year.

Haha and then you criticize me for not reading enough. You are a sly one.
Edit:
My most recent purchase is now The Social Construction of Reality: A Treatise in the Sociology of Knowledge by Peter Berger and Thomas Luckmann

Today while in Tulsa, I picked up:
DC's The Ravagers #1 Which is part of the new 52 line up.
DC's DIAL H #1 Another part of the new 52 line up. And as I vaguely understand it. Is a revival of the comic.
Image's Spawn #219
And a book on Webcomics by Steven Withrow and John Barber

Blood of Tyrants by Naomi Novik and a couple replacement Tolkiens (unfinished tales and stuff, need all of them except The Silmarilion, all originally books from 60's and 70's fell apart a few years ago and have been gradually getting new copies).

While I was visiting the college that I'll be attending, I stopped by a comic-book store and purchased V for Vendetta, as well as The Untold Legend of the Batman.

Something like that, more like the Devil's Daughter getting involved and using Vegas as a way to buy people's souls and not doing things the way they have been done for years. I haven't had the chance to read the full thing though.

Found this for a quarter.
"A Short Life of Abraham Lincoln" copyright 1911.
It is in rough shape, so there is no collectable value to it, I just liked the title.

I went to the annual Red Cross Book Fair last week. It was the first time I had gone in a few years. Got some books I am pretty happy with. Wasn't expecting to see anything by Tim Ingold so that was a really nice surprise.
