chimera_fancies can use in her jewelry. This evening, I wandered over and discovered that they had apparently become The Land of Amazingly Old Science-Fiction and Fantasy.For serious.
Below is a list of all the books I bought, along with the publication years of the specific editions. All of them were in mint to very good condition, and in a lot of cases, the degradation seems to be more 'age' than actual wear and tear.

Now that you've viewed the list, care to guess how much I paid for this amazing trove? Well, counting the CD I bought, and the four books for my housemate...
...$42.12.
I win at life. Also, I have just purchased your childhood.

My books a jumble and frequently re-read. And I'll buy more than one, because well, this one has certain pictures and when they did the reprint the author re-wrote stuff and that one is paperback (I have the paperback AND hardcover of all the Harry Potter).
We really have nothing in common when it comes to reading style.
Though some of his books are mangled and in my pile, because once he's read them once, I can steal them. :D
