Recent Acquisitions #60

[littlerdog.livejournal.com]

Husband observed today that it was the first time he'd come home from a trawl of the local bookshop and charity shops with more books than I had.

Trust me, it wasn't for want of trying on my part. It was just he was vacuuming up books for his work. Honest.

The Anatomy of Motive by John Douglas and Mark Olshaker;
The Complete Roderick by John Sladek (great find!);
Agent Zigzag by Ben Macintyre;
Treasure Seekers and Borrowers by Marcus Crouch
and
To Rule Britannia: The Claudian Invasion of Britain AD 43 by John Waite.

I read a Roderick book many years ago and enjoyed it, then found out belatedly that there were more books. Have had The Complete Roderick on my wishlist for I don't know how long. And today, there it was. Made me so happy. Almost a compensation for retinal photography, glaucoma test, fields test, and I don't know what else tests that left me exhausted and only wanting to go home, plus an ophthalmic referral. Grr for glasses.
