Last book I bought was The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. It's for a friend.

EDIT: Oh, from Kinokuniya :)

Yes yes! Murakami's book covers from that edition set is absolutely beautiful, it's tempting me to buy it again.

BTW if you have a lot of money, there is a publisher, The Folio Society, whose specialty is beautifully designed, lavish books. Their edition of Tolkien's Lord of Rings Trilogy, here, just make me cream my pants

@Oon: That's gorgeous, anyway better not to derail this thread. I made an appropriate thread right here.

I bought The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories: Volume 2 at eslite when I was in Taipei. Cute little volume :)

I am waiting for The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet, Luck in the Shadows, Stalking Darkness, Traitor's Moon and Tender Morsels from betterworldbooks with bated breath.

I just bought ....I didn't really understand it at first, but now i'm enjoying it..I bought it from Gramedia bookstore

Ahh, first time in this thread and I love it already.

My most recent purchase is Tina Fey's Bossypants; it has a lot of references that I don't really get considering I didn't grow up in the States, but I'm familiar with Tina's work enough that I can keep up. Some bits are hilarious and some really get you thinking. Still halfway through and quite enjoying it.

Hello Inka! I have plans to read The Red Pyramid too. Hope you're enjoying it and hope that I will too, later. Haha :)

I buy free kindle books from Amazon almost every day, does that count? But, I also bought by Jeffrey Eugenides, by Louis Sachar, by Peter Robinson, and by Monica Ali at Periplus when it was having World Book Day promotional discount. All paperbacks. It's still going until today, so if you have time, you should check it out. You could check my blog to see people's testimonials of the event there.

My latest book purchase was by Enid Blyton. I bought it from Book Depository. I haven't the time to read it though. :D

my latest purchase are My Kind of Girl (by: Buddhadeva Bose), The Art of Hearing Heartbeats (by: Jan-Phillip Sendker), The Paradise Guest House (by: Ellen Sussman) from bookdepository, also Love and Death in Bali (by: Vicki Baum) from Periplus :D

Just bought Breakthrough from The Book Depository. I watched And The Band Played On on HBO last night and was fascinated by people who dedicate their efforts to uncover the mystery surrounding an unknown disease, which later is called AIDS. So I thought I might treat myself with another tale about a medical breakthrough.

Finally ended my book buying ban and bought
Can't hold myself any longer, that's why...
