Back to School Present to ME! ^^
I just bought 12 books. The one-click ordering on Amazon is evil, but I figure I just spent what I'd normally be spending on rent on books, so it evens out.
Here's the breakdown. As you can see, it started out seminormal, and then I got an attack of childhood:
1&2) The Tale of Genji- Murasaki Shikibu: Two-volume hardcover boxed set, the newest translation.
3) IT- Stephen King: Hardcover First Edition.
4) Dragonsdawn- Anne McCaffrey: Hardcover First Edition.
5) The White Dragon- Anne McCaffrey: Hardcover Reissue (But only the 3rd in the series. Eat me, you stupid publisherpeople.)
6&7) Exiles Volumes I and II- Melanie Rawn: Hardcover First Edition (WRITE THE THIRD ONE ALREADY I'VE BEEN WAITING SINCE I WAS 12.)
8) A Ring of Endless Light- Madeline L'Engle: Hardcover Reissue (The last copy in stock. >>)
9-12)The Time Quartet- Madeline L'Engle: Special Edition boxed set of all four of the novels (Wrinkle in Time, Wind in the Door, Swiftly Tilting Planet, and Many Waters).
I think that's it! Now they need to get here so I can reads them. (hehe...All female writers except for Stephen King.)

I am totally stealing some of those Madeline L'Engle books from you so I can re/read them on my next trip up.
I recently got The Time Quartet as well.
Damn it's been a long time since I've read the Time Quartet (if I even ever finished it). Should probably pick that up at the library. Thanks for the reminder.
I've never had the urge to read the Time Quartet. I saw a play version of A Wrinkle in Time that was good, but hearing about giant brains in one of the other books scared me.
Awww, lookit. Everyone's childhoods just attacked them when they read my blog post. Isn't that sweet?
