...that knows how to read.*
Last Thursday i tracked down a second-hand English-books bookstore. (Sque-ee indeed.) I spent a lovely afternoon there, because I'm suck a book geek, jotting down interesting titles and/or books, ( such as: )
I ended up buying Night Watch by TPratchett, which I've been reading so avidly I've almost finished it, and Kushiel's Dart, of which I've heard a lot, but never with enough detail. Still, that one line, "That which yields, is not always weak," is pretty neat****. (The fact that there's now 5 novels in the series, "Kushiel's Legacy", is a bit daunting.)

** Only cool because NGaiman's American Gods novella is also called that.
*** Very Marvin-ish.
**** Albeit abusive of the poor defensive coma.
