    I can't believe how many people here don't enjoy reading...! I love it, I always do before I go to sleep. It helps relax me The latest one I bought was a week or so ago, Ender's Game. It's delicious...

    Hard to say. I have a poor memory for events. I think Faust (the Goethe version), but I'm not certain.

    PS: Paradise Lost is fantastic.

    Technically, the last book I bought would be a copy of the Canadian tax act (2333 pages of pure awesome). I don't know what the last real book I wanted to buy was. If we count trade paperbacks then it'd be Captain America: Red Menace volumes 1&2 and Ultimates 2 volume 1.

    I bought Franny and Zooey and then promptly lost it.

    Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.

    The Art of Hellboy II. I was a fan of Mike Mignola before the first movie came out and I love seeing how his designs evolved from sketchs to film.

    I...I can't remember.

    Why can't I remember?

    I guess I've just got too many books left over that I still need to read.
