I’ve been very good lately. I’ve not been going into every bookstore that I pass. I didn’t even go into any while in DC despite there being several in the neighborhood. So, when I stopped for a break in Colby, KS this afternoon and saw a Hastings, I was tempted and succumbed. The great thing is that I found a copy of Titus Crow: In the Moons of Borea. Elysia: The Coming of Cthulhu by Brian Lumley which I’d been looking for in hardcover for a few years now. (I’d just not bothered to order a used copy online.) The even better part was that it was on their bargin rack for only $2.99 and wasn’t bargain marked. This is not convincing me that skipping an opportunity to go into a bookstore is a good thing.
