I don't think I can name all the books I have bought so far, the list will be quite long and trust me very boring to read. But if you insist then let me know, and i will take a lot of pleasure boring you.

Go for it.

I hope you're not boosting you post count to post spammy links.

I found these three at the library today:

American Gods by Neil Gaiman
Feed by Mira Grant
Firethorn by Sarah Micklem

This will be my second time trying American Gods. I hated the book immensely last time I started it.

Read ROOM by Emma Donahue. It's about a kidnap victim who has a son by her abductor. Jack grows up in the room they are kept in which is literally his world. The book is written from his five-year-old perspective. You won't be able to put it down. It is fiction but is there are true cases similar to it in the real world (sadly). I thought it would be depressing but it's not.

Hi Carlos

Congratulations on your good deals! I usually pay half the cover price if I go to a second hand bookstore. Less, at the library stores and book sales.
