I spend an awful lot of my money on books. I just -- cannot -- go into a bookstore and not buy something. It makes me feel sick coming out empty-handed. I actually feel sick.
Now Dubliners is a terrible book I had to study it for A-level english it sucked so much I had trouble writing my essays not because it was particulary hard to write them but it was boring as hell almost nothing happens in any of the short stories in there. I think it's entirely overrated (as is most James Joyce unfortunately) and since we could have done our course on Frank Herberts Dune or Bram Stokers Dracula I was entirely gutted that we had to do that book.

Next books I intend on buying are:

Harry Potter and the deathly hallows ~ JK Rowling
A feast for the crows ~ George R R Martin (a song of fire and ice book 4)
Of Fire and night ~ Kevin J Anderson (Saga of the seven suns book 5)

those are the ones I HAVE to buy there'll be others that just catch my eye.
