Much smaller haul than my previous years. It’s buying fatigue, I suppose, due to my burgeoning library and growing list of Kindle books, Audible and Comixology buys. Can’t keep up with the consumption, so I’m limiting myself to just the ones I really like.

It’s starting to get silly for me to go to bookshops when the warehouse sales offer such a delectable selection of books at a price that simply cannot be denied.

It’s been a while, but now I’m catching up on a lot of overdue personal tasks. One of them happens to be an update to this site.
These 2 were purchased separately – the Ross was really a fantastic find in a book sale bin.
At another binge, I picked these up:
- Samurai Champloo – The Complete 2 Volume Series, Masaru Gotsubo
- By Night in Chile, Roberto Bolano
- NurtureShock, Po Bronson, Ashley Merryman
