Glad you got and are happy with the Star Trek books, my friend! 😁😎❤💯 You are so welcome! Unsure where you found or how much you paid for _A Stitch in Time_ but it's been OOP for a long time and goes for over $100 almost everywhere in PB! Your copy looks great! I *LOVE* Eric Nylund's "Mortal Coils"

I've been sick as a dog so I enjoyed the distraction for almost 30 minutes. LoL. Keep it up good sir!

I still need to get that A Stitch In Time book. I have all the other numbered books in the DS9 series. I couldn't find a copy online for less than a million dollars so I passed on it. I keep hoping my local used bookstore will get a copy in someday. I liked Splinter Of The Minds Eye. I read it a couple of times back when it first came out. I guess you could say I'm one of the OG Star Wars EU readers, lol. Nice haul, I predict there will be many more in the future, prepare to build a book fort or have an un-hauling, the choice is yours. 🤪

Oh yes! Crosscurrent. Man, a book I look back on fondly. One of my favorites, and its sequel riptide was a ton of fun to read as well! I’m looking forward to seeing your review when it comes out!

I just finished the Stone and Sky trilogy last month! I think he wrapped it up nicely. Eric Nylund? I read a book by him many years ago, Dry Water. I still have fond memories of it. I thought the magic was very unique and delved into a method of time-traveling reminiscent of Quantum Leap (best comp I can think of). I just asked my family to give Amazon gift cards so I could buy books lol.

I'm not sure War for the Rose Throne will be your thing, but hey maybe they will. I loved the series, also read per Mike's suggestion. Very distinct and excellent first-person narration. Super quick reads too.

If I remember right I heard that was James SA Corey's first book together, and yes it was coincidentally the last EU novel. So funny. I need to get to it. I love the Expanse and Mercy of the Gods by them. Very curious what star wars looks like to them.

Your familu give you books? That's pretty amazing! I think the last time my family gave me a book was when I was 15. After I got a job, they never gave me anything.

Excited to see “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?” One of my goals is to start reading Philip K Dick this year. In January I bought “Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said” and I can’t wait to read it

Wasn’t one of your goals less book buying? 😂 looks like a great haul. Hopefully you have the shelf space for them
@jonathankoan6 күн бұрын
Yes it was…but in my defense, the majority of the books here were either bought during Christmas Break or were sent by authors/publishers. But I do really need to work on this. 😂

Jonathan when you read Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, you will fall down a rabbithole unlike any other. PKD is blissful sci-fi!

Do you think that you will ever get to a point where you will have to slow down your book buying because you are getting more books than you can read in a month every month (maybe something like buying 1 book for every 10 books you read)? I'm asking because that is a problem I have run into. I am reading 100 books this year but about 85 of them that I am scheduled to read are books already on my shelf. The rest I plan on buying. I could honestly probably do the same thing again next year without having to buy more than like 10 books.

That’s a good idea. But I do have a buying problem and I don’t know if I can help myself. 😂
