I will never stop finding my Amazon recs funny. Current top 10:
1. The Potato: How the Humble Spud Rescued the Western World (Looks interesting, but probably will never get around to buying)
2. Cider: Making, Using & Enjoying Sweet & Hard Cider, Third Edition (You know, maybe. I'll look at it again once I've read the book on the history and making of cider. I tend to like food history books more than how to books, but I like how to books more than recipe books. Because I like learning the theory along with the recipes. If that makes sense.)
3. The Chinese Language: Fact and Fantasy (I think the Chinese language(s) have a really interesting history, so hell yeah I'm buying this once I have the money for it. I love language histories)
4. The Art of William Morris in Cross Stitch (Yes, I cross-stitch. I don't like buying cross-stitch books on Amazon because I need to flip through them and see if there's any projects I might do in them first, but this one looks pretty. So yes, it goes on my wishlist.)
5. The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat: And Other Clinical Tales (Nah. Read it in the bookstore and don't like the writing style.)
6. Interior Desecrations: Hideous Homes from the Horrible '70s (Looked at the online version and nope, doesn't interest me.)
7. Priceless: Turning Ordinary Products into Extraordinary Experiences (No interest whatsoever.)
8. Grantville Gazette II (Eh. I like the 163* series, so I'll probably pick it up when it's paperback. Or just wait for my brother or father to pick it up, since they both read the series too.)
9. Queer Eye for the Straight Guy : The Fab 5's Guide to Looking Better, Cooking Better, Dressing Better, Behaving Better, and Living Better (...What the hell. I have no earthly idea how this even got onto my recs list. But I get the feeling that Amazon's making a snide comment about my dress sense.)
10. The Secret Sex Lives of Animals (Okay, I might buy this.)

Now I need to go tell Amazon to rec me some history books, because I feel like reading some Indian history.

Also, I want to carve out my uterus. IT WOULD HURT LESS.
