Jan. 3rd, 2004

It's Tolkien's birthday today.

Maybe I will re-read The Silmarillion next after all, his books being the best presents he could have given.

Spent some time browsing the Book Barn in Latham this afternoon (which continues to do a booming business), and came away with the following:

Sarah Caudwell, Thus Was Adonis Murdered and The Shortest Way to Hades (both on the $0.25 rack)
Carla Kelly two-in-one, Mrs. Drew Plays Her Hand and Miss Grimsley's Oxford Career
Laura Kinsale, Flowers from the Storm (all they had)
Kate Ross, Cut to the Quick
E. Nesbit, The Phoenix and the Carpet

And except for the last, these are all melymbrosia's fault. Can you tell I finally updated the scrap of paper in my wallet where book recommendations live?
