I just got a bunch of stuff I've read before to replace copies left at home that I'll probably never find again (or that someone will have given to a church sale by now just like they did with my original toy Millennium Falcon )

Bradbury, Asimov, Philip K. Dick and Philip Jose Farmer.

Also added some unread stuff

Donna Tartt - The Little Friend (I adored 'Secret History')
George RR Martin - A Feast For Crows (been putting this off as I heard it was quite disappointing)
Stalingrad - Anthony Beevor (I'm a bit of a WW1 and 2 freak)

FOOL, by Christopher Moore, to get it signed and personalized as a wedding present.  We mailed it off Saturday.

I think it was... let's see... The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wrobleski (if I spelled his name right.) The Condition and Bluegrass were a gift from my mother.

After many months of hunting this down, I've just ordered Laymon's Beast House trilogy after DL recommended it about a year ago.

I bought DEATH'S DAUGHTER, by Amber Benson (she played Tara in Buffy) so I could have her sign it.  I gave it to my fanboy roommate who probably won't get a chance to see her when she comes back into town in a week or so.

Wellington's 99 Coffins ... just have to find the rest of the titles of the series.  I was wandering a department store when I saw David's name and thought "Nah can't be ... David Wellington as in Undead 2's 'Cyclopean'".  Yep ... it was a good day indeed.

Battle Royale (the novel).  Fan of the movie (not so much the sequel), need to read the book behind it.

I just bought CARYATIDS, by Bruce Sterling, for MYSELF for a change.  I love Sterling's work, and he's one of the few science fiction authors I read consistently.
