I was doing some...ahem...and buying more than I wanted (especially since sometimes they were MORE expensive than the paperback due to publisher demands!) but now I am almost exclusively reading from the library. Yay, library!
'War Stories'
Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
Amazon emails me the Kindle deal of the day.
Ooh, thanks for the tip, bennett! I already have the non-anniversary edition, so two bucks isn't bad for the re-buy.
I didn't know you could ahem e-books - a sign of how out of it I am these days. From the usual suspects or e-book only places?
Ok, you all did so well with the "death and grieving" suggestions, any ideas for a non-fiction "book about a person with a disability"?
Anne Rice has a werewolf book coming out next month.
The juxtaposition of the two posts above mine made me laugh and laugh.
"Moving Violations" by John Hockenberry is good. Exciting, since he went places most paraplegics can't. John Callahan's "Don't Worry, He Won't Get Far On Foot"

Me, too. I honestly thought for a minute that sumi's post was a direct response.
Relatedly, I am going to have to buy American Gods for the BatKindle, because my paperback went walkabout many, many months ago.

I was mostly getting them from friends (and for the most part things that I already had, or that I wouldn't otherwise buy--which is why I was ALSO spending too much at Amazon, and because it was soooo easy!). But I am pretty sure you can get them the usual places...but I have also never ahemed a TV show or movie, and haven't downloaded music illegally since Napster was big (iTunes is easy enough and legal enough and cheap enough that I don't feel any need) so I don't know the exact processes!
