My library just grew again 2019

[Hobbes]

My library will have to wait a bit longer for the next acquisition. I live in Soest, NL, but today I saw on a parcel tracking site that my latest book order has been sent to Soest, Germany instead and has to go back to the sender as 'undeliverable'

To add insult to injury, I checked today why my order hadn't arrived yet, and it turns out I gave them the wrong address 

Arrived today:
Prototypes Expérimentaux Dassault 1960-1980
Ariane 5, une épopée Européenne

[Rheged]

From  THE WORKS at  Gretna Gateway outlet centre;  Haynes manual of THE EMPIRE FLYING BOAT.  Should have been £6, but with a slightly damaged cover and some points I had on their loyalty card, I  paid £3.50.   Well worth it!!

Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn!

I've read it and I don't really see any connection to the Famous Five.
It's completely a riff on Scooby Doo.

Lovecraft Country by Matt Ruff is very good and Jordan Peele is developing it
as a series for HBO.

I found another of those Aviation Classics bookazines today.

It's called 'American Cold War Stories' and includes all sorts of strange stuff. An article on the XB-35  , one on the 'nuclear powered' NB-36, lots of stuff from the Viet Nam era, and oddly, a story right at the back that has nothing to do with America! But it's very interesting nonetheless.

£8.00 well spent to my mind.

I always have a browse in Smith's bookazine section when I'm in there, they do get some interesting stuff. I often wonder how they do it for the price ?

Real books or e-books?
I'm a die hard tree book buyer but I can see the advantages of having a number of books on a reader.  Nothing worse that finishing your book with only half the journey done.
