One of the best books I've read all year. I have a new appreciation for the process of writing a book.

Finished Haruki Murakami's Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World.

<img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/410fmZkV5fL._SS500_.jpg">
Finished H.P. Lovecraft's The Colour Out of Space which also contains "The Hound" and "The Outsider" stories.

Now reading Leonard Mlodinow's The Drunkard's Walk.

I went to the Hong Kong Book Fair yesterday and picked up 33 books for about $160. One of those books was a hardcover I needed for work, which ran about $20. The rest were all $1.50 to $8.

Hope they last me through the end of the year.

Probably not.

Quick read. Some entertaining stories about working on offshore oil rigs.

Now reading:

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...SH20_OU01_.jpg

Really great collection of short stories. Somewhat dark, sparse writing. They all center around Knockemstiff, Ohio (yes, its a real place) so its interesting to see how bits and pieces of the stories are connected or reference each other.

Finished The Chronicles Of Narnia, just started (hardcover):


http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...SH20_OU01_.jpg



But mine has this cover art:

http://img2.imagesbn.com/images/1050000/1053501.gif


...obviously without the Simon & Schuster AUDIO at the top. They must've decided it wasn't selling with the original artwork so they changed it. Don't know why they chose a hand...-rolleyes- -kd5-
