Literary Faults.

Barnes & Noble is having a sale. I'm sitting here leafing through the books, salivating. It's so tempting to say to hell with everything else and spend my $500 access of financial aid on books.

The Wedding by Nicholas Sparks - $5
Philippa Gregory's The Queen's Fool - $5, hell, even things like Sex as a Second Language - Alisa Kwitney for $2.98 that might be neat, might only be entertaining, might be awful - but for three bucks!
Susannah Morrow by Megan Chance,
Pitching My Tent by Anita Diamant who's recently been recommended to me, this book sounds like something my mother needs.
The Woodsman's Daughter which might not be as good as the title suggests,
Orsinian Tales: Stories by Ursula K. Le Guin - she wrote the Catwings books I loved when I was little and I'm curious to see her more adult writing

...Ok. Tearing myself away from the fiction didn't help:
Meaning of Herbs: Myth, Language and Lore by Gretchen Scoble, Ann Field, Ann Fiery,
Herbaceous by Sarah Baker,
Wild Fruits: Thoreau's Rediscovered Last Manuscript,

Josh is getting all sorts of odd balls. But then, Josh would:
Sweets: A History of Candy - $2.68
Feast: A History of Grand Eating - $4.50
Intellectuals in Exile: Refugee Scholars and the New School for Social Research - $4.50
Meaning of Herbs: Myth, Language and Lore (::cries!!:: I want that one!)

So the moral of the story is, this is why I don't have a credit card.
