Today I hoarded more books, but I don’t feel too bad ‘cause I got all four for PhP225: Neil Gaiman’s Fragile Things and Anansi Boys, Audrey Niffenegger’s The Time Traveler’s Wife, and Great Tales and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe! I just inserted the exclamation point for feeling. It’s safe to say it was a great day.

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak | National Bookstore, Robinsons Pioneer | PhP99 Still need to catch up on my reading, but I find it a lovely coincidence that I’m reading a book about a book (with a book within a book) on World Book Day. To more pages—cheers!

"I know that big people don’t like questions from children. They can ask all the questions they like, How’s school? Are you a good boy? Did you say your prayers? but if you ask them did they say their prayers you might be hit on the head."

Neil Gaiman just posted the cover of his new book for kids, Fortunately, The Milk, which will be out this September. It’s illustrated by Skottie Young, and the art looks fun and kooky!

"Local tales and superstitions thrive best in these sheltered, long settled retreats; but are trampled under foot, by the shifting throng that forms the population of most of our country places."
