Hurray!
So, in the event that Borders was closing down, and I wanted to get in there and scrape up some good deals, I bought these two little books:
Small though they may be, I have always wanted them, and they were relatively cheap.
Then, a few days later, after I had FINALLY summoned up the courage to buy my first Kurt Vonnegut book, my book nerd friend goes yard sale-ing and finds these little gems:
A whole stack of Vonnegut books for something like cents a piece!
He got me Slaughterhouse Five too, but since I had JUST purchased it, we gifted it to our other book nerd friend.
THEN, on a completely random road trip with my boo, we decided to hit up Barnes & Noble (because there was nothing else besides a Buffalo Wild Wings to take up our wasted time). I caved and bought these because I've been eyeing them for quite some time.
The Odyssey & The Iliad because I know I can convince my non-reading boyfriend to get into it (he is a freak for mythology)...
and H.P. Lovecraft because I had just done a bloggity post not too long ago about how I needed to get into his stuff.
Glory in it's beauty.
I've just cracked open Beloved by Toni Morrison right now, and so far finding it pretty interesting (as well as a little confusing - probably just need to get into a little further).
On to reading!
