I got:
The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky (something I've meant to read since I was about 15. I read it and it reminded me of being 15, although I don't really think I was that similar to the main character in it at 15, but even so, reading it back at my parents' place added to the effect. Very easy to read, but a bit too obvious at times.)
The Twenty-seventh City by Jonathan Franzen (Have started reading it, but it doesn't seem as good as The Corrections or Strong Motion.)
McSweeneys Issue 12 (Have read the 20 minute stories, which make me mainly think "woah, how can you write something as good as that in 20 minutes?")
McSweeney's Mammoth Treasury of Thrilling Tales (Have read a few stories, some of which have been slightly disturbing in a fairytale kind of way. Some of the tales have been written by famous authors such as Neil Gaiman, Stephen King, Rick Moody, Nick Hornby, etc.)
Jonathan Lethem - Amnesia Moon
A red and yellow Japanese kid's book (to improve my reading skills.)
A learn Kanji book
Think I got some other books, but can't remember what. Oh well. |
