Wednesday, April 30, 2008 New books
The books I ordered from Amazon.com arrived today, two weekends since I ordered. Not bad for standard shipping.
1. The Reagan Diaries, edited by Douglas Brinkley 2. The Copyeditor's Handbook by Amy Einsohn 3. The Life of Elizabeth 1 by Alison Weir 4. A Passion for Books by Rob Kaplan 5. An Alphabetical Life by Wendy Werris 6. Leave Me Alone I'm Reading by Maureen Corrigan The Reagan Diaries was something I should have bought when I was at my sister's last summer - it was only $18.90 at Sam's. It's retailing at Border's here for S$60 or about USS35!! ACK!!! The Handbook is something for work especially now that I'm doing more corporate communications writing. The rest - well, because they've been on my Amazon wishlist for so long and I've not been able to find them here! And that's it for now. No more new books for the next... oh! 3 months?? Really! I'm so looking forward to this weekend. It's Labour Day tomorrow here in Singapore, and I'm taking Friday off. So that's a long 4-day weekend for me. And oh! I'm off to the ShangriLa for English tea tomorrow with some friends. A small treat to myself after the last 2 crazy months. |
