mmm books
boy howdy... what began as an innocent trip to barnes and noble to pick up my H2P summer reading turned into a book-buying frenzy; i spent over $100 on various paperbacks i've been wanting. justification? it's been a while since i've bought a book, so i'm catching up. i am really excited to read them, actually, particularly The Songlines for class. the downside is that once classes start, i will have other things to read, and maybe won't be able to delve into my new treasure trove of literature the way i'd hoped. we'll see.
my new volumes:
The Songlines, Bruce Chatwin
Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress, Dai Sijie
Saturday, Ian McEwan
The Handmaid's Tale, Margaret Atwood
Lolita, Vladimir Nabokov
The Cider House Rules, John Irving
The Poisonwood Bible, Barbara Kingsolver
Life of Pi, Yann Martel
ps... i saw an author by the name of Monica McInerney... coincidence... or fate? O_o
