I WOULD go and spend over $50 on two books right after I make a list. I was about to buy four, but good thing one was damaged and another wasn't there. Doesn't change the fact that I'll still search for them, though.
And DUDE...WHY are the hardcover bestsellers all CRAP?? The time when B&N gives out coupons for 50% off hardcover bestsellers is the time when they're all trash. Maybe that's why. All these bookies refuse to buy that waste of paper and they have to figure out some incentive.
I just bought the David Cross and Nick Hornby book, by the way. Quite happy, but I am thinking about returning Juliet, Naked. David Cross is definitely a keeper, methinks.
