nice surprises

[kismet09]

I like buying used books on amazon.com -- I rarely buy one for more than 2 bucks, and they tend to take so long to arrive that I forget they're coming. Case in point: Outlander. I think someone on my friendslist must've recommended this to me, or written about it somewhere awhile ago, because I'm not sure why else I would've bought it, but now I have it, in its 850 pages of glory, and it arrived as a total surprise.

Yesterday, I purchased some heavy worsted alpaca blend yarn and a ball of yarn I need to finish a hat that's three inches from the top. In some ways, I hope it takes awhile, too, so that it's like a present when it arrives.

I also have 4 packages that need to go out to people. This weekend, I swear.

GREAT book. you will love it. and luckily there are, like, 6 more in the series so you can stay busy with her story for years.

how funny! i just started outlander, and kestrel127 is reading it, too (although she might have finished that one). i've heard they're really good and so far i like it. my mom has the rest of them, or at least the next couple, i think, so i'll be borrowing them from her, if i like the series enough to continue reading all sixish!
