    Default Most Recent Book Purchase

    What's the newest book you bought? I just bought Paradise Lost by John Milton.

    I rarely buy books when I can just read them for free at the library.

    However, my most recent book purchase would be 6 manga books that I bought because they were being clearanced for 99 cents each. I got Mahou Sensei Negima! volumes 1 and 6, Yotsuba&! volume 1, and Cardcaptor Sakura: Master of the Clow volumes 4, 5, and 6 for less than the price of one new book. That was a good day.

    I do not read very often. The last book that I purchased was The Easy Way to Stop Smoking: Join the Millions Who Have Become Non-Smokers Using Allen Carr's Easyway Method. Do you think that it is weird that I, a non-smoker, purchased a book like this?
    I believe in the power of humanity.

    Well if it counts that I just pre-ordered J.K. Rowlings "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" this will be the one.
    Otherwise IŽd have to do a lot of thinking because it must be at least 6 months now, that I bought a book which wasnŽt supposed to help me studying.

    I found a book of Batman art at Barnes and Noble for $1.60 so yeah, that.

    Uh, picture books aside, probably Sherwood Smith's <i>King's Shield</i> though there may be a few anthologies I bought used and forgot about.

    Reading bores me.

    I think I bought either a Dilbert book or Lewis Black's Nothing's Sacred back in March or so.

    If you have fun reading it, it doesn't count.

    I pre-ordered Breaking Dawn online on Sunday.

    I kind of regret it, now that I've read the spoilers. It fails so hard, seriously. xD

    If you're planning on buying it, don't. You'd be better off downloading the .pdf online if you want to read it.

    i'm giving up,
    on the entire human race....

    It's been a while since I've bought a book, but I got "The Scarlet Letter" by Nathaniel Hawthorne and "Alice and Wonderland" with its sequel "Through the Looking Glass" by Lewis Carroll.
