What were the last books you bought?

Wow, I didn't start this topic yet?

Anyway, I bought a number of books yesterday afternoon at the DOLLAR STORE of all places. What more? 3 of them are hard-bound books, and all of them look interesting.

Heres the list:

Prima: Sega Saturn game secrets Volume 1 for $.99(Softbound)

Knight Of The Demon Queen by Barbara Hambly for $.99 (Hardbound)

The Golden Band Of Eddris by Henry Holt for $.99 (Hardbound)

Hammerfall by C.J Cherryh for $.99 (Hardbound)

Also I got this pack of 4 small Hardbound books for a dollar: Hoyle On Backgammon, Crossword Poems 1, Crossword Poems 2, and A Twist In The Tale.

Not bad for a dollar store, huh?

Let's see... The last books I've bought in the past month have been the three books by Stephanie Meyer. Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse happened to be better than what I thought they would have been. Twilight was the only paperback one out of the bunch and was the cheapest at $8. The other two were like $13 a pop. Not too back on a book. Also, the guides for Need for Speed: Pro Street, Assassin's Creed, and Tomb Raider Anniversary were bought, but not by me.

What exactly does Stephanie Meyer write about?

The book titles sound interesting enough, so i'd like to know more.

My last haul got me:

Lunar Park by Bret Easton Ellis for $13.95
The Steep Approach to Garbadale by Iain Banks for $13.00
The Thriteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield for $15.00

Whew, thank god for that membership discount!

The last book I remember buy was "Garfield At Large" or somthing like that.

I think I got the first book signed by Jim Davis somewhere...

Bought 3 books at the nearby Comic&RPG store tonight:

Castlevania: The Belmont Legacy($19.99 new)

Creatures Of The Night by Neil Gaiman ($12.99 new)

Johnny the Homicidal Maniac: Director's Cut($19.99 new)

Also, I will probably be going back there again next weekend.

Oh wow, the last book I bought was American Gangster, and it's basically the book about the film. Good read though.

Bought some Science book at the freakin' dollar store today!

Actually, it looks pretty fuggin good. When I check the name, i'll update this post.

Wow It Must Been A While Back

I haven't bought any books recently but I have read the I am Legend book. I must say if the movie differs too much from the book, I'll be one sad camper.

Sounds like an interesting book Garret!

I will have to see if I can find more out about it anywhere.

i will get the authors name and publisher for you mate you should check it out

The Snow Warrior
BY Don Dandrea
Publisher: Tudor Communications (July 1988)

Snow Warrior" is the story of Subotai an orphaned Mongol that rises up to be the right hand of the great Ghengis Khan. Tomes have been written about Tumajin (Ghengis Khan) but almost nothing about the mysterious Subotai; the man that lead much of the Khan's armies into incredible victories.

Subotai's story begins with the young orphan surviving the harsh plains and the even harsher treatment that an orphan might face in a fiercely nomadic society. As a teen, the Mongol sees a young blond haired girl that becomes his lifetime quest to meet and marry. The quest leads him to become a trapper of birds, a trader, a guardsman, a father and husband, a student of Indian Martial arts and philosphy and finally the Right hand of great Khan.

Damn, that sounds like an awesome book to me!

I will try looking for it when i'm at the bookstore next time.

Thank you very much for the info

The last books I bought were The Prince of Nothing series as Lee said that I would like them.

What exactly is Prince Of Nothing about?

The name sounds interesting.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_of_Nothing

It's a bit dark and extremely depressing in a few points, along with it being very risque, but it's also got a lot of good points and values towards it, along with making you think. I've always loved books that make you think.

The last book I bought was New Moon. I have to say, I'm liking New Moon much more than I liked Twilight.

I've been wanting to check out the Prince of Nothing series for a while. I've heard a lot of really good things about it.

As for what books I've purchased lately, well, I haven't bought any in a while tbh. I would love to buy more, but we're broke 99% of the time. Last books I bought, though, were A Scanner Darkly by Philip K. Dick, The Plague by Albert Camus, and Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk, along with a textbook on VisualBasic programming.
