What is Murphy's law? (Baby don't hurt me....)

Just the minute I pay and had spent all my money (I mean it, it really was ALL my money, I don't even have enough spare change for coffee -or in my case, hot cocoa, whatever) in books, I decide to check the videogame section up just to find out Okami finally came to town, after weeks of waiting.

...

Oh well. Next month it is... -_-

But on the meantime, I have two new books (not counting the Discworld from Friday because they're rereads) to procrastinate with:

- Anansy Boys by Teh Gaiman. I thought American Gods was pretty good, so I want to read this one a lot.

- Artemis Fowl and the monster inside his chest and the Half-blood Prince: The Lost Colony by Eoin Colfer <- er, guilty pleasure of mine, this series.

I'll have fun, I'm sure. And by flipping the last pages of the latter, I was relieved to see the fucking spoilers I saw last year in a forum were FAKE (well, not really fake, but incomplete) and I was angsting over nothing a good deus ex machina can't cure.

I also saw Wicked, which tempted me because it sounds like fun, but it was more expensive than the two books I got. And Hogfather by Teh Pratchett is already in Spanish, but I guess I'll wait for the library to get it or the paperback to kick in: whatever it comes first.

a mi Anansi Boys me decepcionó un poco. sigo pensando que Neil funciona mucho mejor en relatos cortos ("Humo y espejos" es como TAN perfecto que no hay palabras) y con tantas páginas se nos pierde, el chico. American Gods me gusto mucho, pero creo que pierde brio en la parte final. sep, Neil es definitivamente chico de relatos cortos.
