Whoo, books!

Sold a bunch of old games and books today and made quite a profit! I bought a few new books in return, including two Angela Carter books (The Bloody Chamber and The Magic Toyshop. I've heard good things about her work), a non-fiction ant book by the "Indiana Jones of entomology," and a copy of Leaves of Grass. I also got The Phantom of Manhattan, which inspired the Sequel Musical That Must Not Be Named. I heard the original book actually isn't supposed to be that bad, so I'll see how much Andrew Lloyd Weber has fucked up.

Battle Royale reading has been going slow (being a doorstopper and all), so I've been caught up with Smoke & Mirrors by Neil Gaiman. Good stuff, it's been a while since I was hooked on something. :o
