BookDragon

I love books! What more can I say? Netflix.com provides me with all the DVD’s I can handle. As for books, my thanks go out to Amazon.com, Borders (a chai latte, please!) and all the used book sales I can get to. For anything I can’t find in any of these places, I go to my local library. (Interlibrary Loans are SHINY!)

Books Galore

This week is the giant booksale by the American Association of University Women here in the Allentown, Pa area. I went this weekend and had a blast! The AAUW gave me a generous scholarship last year, they are a wonderful bunch. I'm looking forward to joining their organization once I finish my first degree.

What books did I get? The finds include "Burmese Days" by George Orwell. I just love his early non-fiction. You can really feel his anger at society's injustice, even more so than in his fiction. For fun I got "Zen for Cats", I just love them kitties! To go with my library collection I got an old book on library cataloging. And to help me with my Spanish I got a small book of Spanish poetry.

I'm going back again soon, so I'll report on more books later.
