Book-less (not necessarily hopeless).

I want to buy A Big Little Life: A Memoir of a Joyful Dog by Dean Koontz (I'm a big fan of D.K.) but I found that it is a little over my budget right now. It's  $15 at the Book Depository  (higher at approx $24 dollars at National Bookstore Online).


And it really hit me -- I can't buy books due to my budget constraints.And I  just realized how broke I am... :( :( :(

Well, I am hoping this is just a temporary setback.

So for the meantime I thought I might as well try to win books here instead:
