It wasn't today, but I now have a hard cover copy of Alloy of Law. It was on sale at the bookstore, and I don't own it yet, so pretty obvious choice.

Yesterday, I got the new Salman Rushdie book: Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights.

 

The book seller had to get my copy from the back. Guess there wasn't room because of all their unsold copies of Go Set a Watchman. :rolleyes:

I didn't buy anything today, but on Friday I bought Bluescreen by Dan Wells (because this is the guy who wrote the incredibly awesome John Cleaver books) and on Saturday I bought The Crystal Bridge by Charlie Pulsipher (because I can't say no to an author trying to sell me their book at a convention). That was at LTUE.

Mistborn: Secret History. Finished it in an hour. Might not have been my brightest idea, but man was it good.

I bought The Contractor by Andrew S. Ball.

It is narrated by Luke Daniels and i love it a lot more than i thought i would!!

Yesterday I finally ordered a hardcopy of The Coldest Girl in Coldtown because Holly Black is doing a signing in Salt Lake and that means I have to have something for her to sign! (Best way to get me to buy your book is to do a signing near me. Rarely fails.)

House of Leaves
Welcome to Night Vale

Calamity

Songs of a Dead Dreamer and Grimscribe by Thomas Ligotti

and of course some more Dresden Files. Side Jobs and Proven Guilty. I am incapable of buying books without at least picking up another Dresden Files. They are just so quick and cheap. Not sure what I will do once I catch up...

I walked into the store looking for a scantron. 

 

Walked out with a Prelude to Foundation (Asimov). And a scantron.

Well I imagine you ll do like the rest of us and foam at the mouth waiting for next one. Read Alera afterward for sure. Bk 1 is the hardest for some but keep going. Alera is easily my num 1 reco to people. It's insanely fun and also makes a great re read in 5 yrs time.

This thing is bigger than my face. You could probably kill someone with the hardcover.

 

And then I got American Gods, The Furies of Calderon and The Broken Eye.

Today I ordered the latest John Cleaver book by Dan Wells, Over Your Dead Body, and Kill Shakespeare Vol 2 since none of my local libraries have a copy of it.

Posted

Last book I picked up was The Iron King by Maurice Druon.

I'm not really a fan of historical novels, since I nevermore how right they are...but having GRRM's recommendation makes a compelling argument.
