Aside from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, I also ordered Chuck Palahniuk's latest, Rant, off of Amazon. I like that guy's work, so I'm looking forward to reading it.

I heart used book stores:
Buncha children's fantasy, because in my opinion, that's when it's the best. Not with adults, but with the kids.
The Amber Spyglass and The Subtle Knife (Philip Pullman)
The Dark is Rising Sequence: Over Sea Under Stone, The Dark is Rising, Greenwitch, The Grey King, Silver on the Tree (Susan Cooper).
I paid like four bucks for all of that...and some trading.

Transformers: Fallen Star
Appears to be a Generation 2 black & white graphic novel of sorts. Haven't started it yet since I'm still reading Communion.

Recent buys:
Another edition of "Little, Big" becuase it is probably one of the best books written.
Um, I got "The Solitudes" recently, and "His Dark Materials" omnibus, amongst a slew of others procured over the past couple months.

Oh man, it's been a while since I've been in here.
Recently, I purchased a whole bunch of Transformers collections (old 80's and 90's comics stuffed together) covering some of the last years of Generation 1 and the whole of Generation 2. They were all at Hal-Price Books, and the last time I found them, they were all one, two or three dollars. Not bad for still-new books (both hardcover and softcover) that normally sell for $16 to $21. I bought something like 7 altogether.
