new books

I was close to buying a Creative Zen V Plus or a Zen Neeon 2 today, to tide me over until my order of the ZVM 60 arrives. So, I stopped by the store to check out the little flash players (which would be handy when I run). The store said the units will arrive on the third week of May. In which case, I think I can wait. I didn't buy a flash player. I hope the ZBM60 really does arrive this month.

My other orders arrived today, though. So, I made a quick stop at Fullybooked to pick them up: Walter Moers' The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear, Rumo and His Miraculous Adventures, and The City of Dreaming Books. They look like a fun read (and the reviews on Amazon and LibraryThing are pretty good, too).

I'll move on to those books as soon as I finish the book I'm reading now --- Naomi Novik's His Majesty's Dragon, the first book in the Temeraire series. It's a fantasy set in the Napoleonic war, with England and France engaged in naval and aerial battle, the latter performed by their respective air force composed of dragons.

A friend is flying in for a 3-week visit and I'm very much looking forward to that! Hobbit Party time! =)

The week is about to begin again. Gotta suck it up and deal with going to work in Makati.
