I'm so predictable sometimes. I was driving home from the gym last night and see a sign that was new in the shopping center across the street. "Giant Book Sale", it read. So I stopped. They were closing 10 minutes later, but I did a quick run-through and picked up 4 books (2 of which were even on my wishlist):

Gabriel's Gift by Hanif Kureishi
Mendel's Dwarf by Simon Mawer
You Bright & Risen Angels by William T. Vollman
Patience & Fortitude by Nicholas A. Basbanes

As for reading, I've not done as much this usual since I've been going to bed early due to jetlag. I'm still working on A Game of Thrones though.
