How does one get into that field? I currently sell books, which is almost as good- but to actually get paid to read them?? Sounds like heaven. ********************* Sometimes when you fall you fly.... |

The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency by Alexander McCall Smith
A meditative, gentle read; produced many smiles and a couple of out-loud chuckles. Although it's billed as a mystery, the mystery elements take a back seat to the evocation of modern Africa (specifically Botswana). Monstrous Regiment by Terry Pratchett This was one of my first Pratchetts. Originally I borrowed it from a friend about 18 months ago to have something to read on a train journey. I just bought it myself because I wanted to complete my at-home collection. Upon re-reading, I liked it much better than I did the first time through. What's interesting to me is how Pratchett have grown and evolved as a writer. - Cho _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ You are a Confectioner. Who can take a sunrise and sprinkle it with dew? Actually, that's Bob The Enchanter, two doors down on the left. But you make delectable treats, which is no simple feat considering Oompa Loompas won't be invented for three centuries. Not only do you delight with your sweets, but you've paved the way for a new profession: dentistry! _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ the blog thing: From an Ayewards World ... |

I bought...
An Elric graphic novel A Ray Bradbury graphic novel FMA volume 2 Trigun volume 6 ...and some Russian graphic novel bout a sub... oh, and a Crow book ~Nyssa: Shapeshifter extraordinaire~ ~~~-------~~~ Cthulhu for president~Why vote for the lesser evil? -------~~----- "Of course I'm paranoid, everyone's trying to kill me!" - Weyoun ~~~------~~~ You are an Illuminator. You add color and beauty to anything you can get your hands on: books, tavern signs, clocks, small barnyard animals. While your work goes largely unappreciated, at least it pays the bills. Why, that enormous golden M you painted for the new Scottish restaurant down the street netted you a farthing! |

I actually found a hardcover of Strata by Terry Pratchett. dustjacket isn't fab and there's some ink scribbles on the bottom edge, but it's pretty cool to come across a hardback in a used bookstore.
Strata isn't one of his better efforts, but I'm trying to get everything in hardback. I don't foresee another book purchase until Anansi Boys comes out. I would have thought the end of the world is everyone's responsibility, wouldn't you? ~Death in Thief of Time Minister of Kraftwerk in the Realm of U & P, Order of the Pineapple with frond for advancement in Nap studies. |

Maeve -
I try to get a hardback replacement when I wear out a paperback. I'm currently considering replacing Courtship Rite by Donald Kingsbury and Swordspoint by Ellen Kushner. I don't have a lot of time to browse used bookstores anymore, so I tend to use http://www.abebooks.com . - Cho _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ You are a Confectioner.

I bought Ursula K. LeGuin's "Changing Planes" to read on the trip to Otakon. I've read the first parts of it, and it's realy cute.
I plan on purchasing Hideyuki Kikuchi's "Vampire Hunter D: The Raiser of Gales" and Brian Clevenger's "Nuklear Power" while in Baltimore.
