A lot of big books this time, truly glad to find them:

The collected plays of Edward Albee (including an adaptation of Nabokov's Lolita. I'm very excited to see how it turns out be, as this guy is the master of dark humour.)



Alice's adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Caroll. Though I already have Alice in Wonderland, that was the only way to get the sequel. So I thought I'll just get it anyway.



A spot brother by Mark Haddon. As Storymilo once recommended I'd read Haddon's other book, The curious incident, I thought I'd get that one as well, as it was the only one to be found in the book store.

I just bought like 20 books for all of my classes.
I'm an English major so they're all novels.

Ooh, I haven't read that (or anything by him 'sides Dog in the Night) but if it's anything like the other one then it's going to be great. Hope you enjoy

^ I actually have Dog in the night as ebook, though I would've preferred getting it as a "book". So as I'm sure I won't find it in any stores, I'll just read my ebook version, and hopefully enjoy both

I've always been a huge fan of Mark Haddon. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time will always be my favourite of his, a must read if you haven't already!

It's a must btw, one my favourite books. Tell us what you think of it (when you read it).

Read the first two pages.... the writing is of course great.

Kind of makes me wonder what got lost in translation though.

no translation there ... he's Russian, but he writes in English as he's living in the US.
