The last books I bought were "Men on Strike" by Dr. Helen Smith, and "The War Against Boys" by Christina Hoff Sommers.

You know libraries exist? Why would you ever buy a book

Can't remember. Probably "The Epic of Gilgamesh". After that I'm just downloading ebooks illegally.

I bought Dracula last week. I enjoyed it but it felt weird that they killed off some literal who at the end and expected me to care.

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and some Agatha Christie novel.
I don't really like Agatha's style now that I've grown up but I still read her from time to time, out of nostalgia and to feel comfy.

Seconds, Bryan lee o'malley. It was actually a graphic novel, but an actual book was Battle Royale. Shame I'll never meet a girl like Hazel.

"How to bomb the U.S. Gov't" by Sam Hoidel et al.
The ebook, not the real deal.

It sucks, which is why I payed the least I could.
The only other book I've ever bought for myself with my own money (this one a physical copy) is a very rare and obscure book about the various alien spacefaring civilizations and their relation to the history of planet Earth and mankind.

Funny though how you went straight to shaming because someone's reading books on men's issues. You both must be roasties.

what anime?image search just gives me "cartoon"

I bought a book that I thought would be an overview of Baltic peoples from prehistory up to about the end of the Northern Crusades. There's very few sources about this topic (Livonian Chronicle of Henry, Scandinavian sagas, couple of Roman historians) and a small compilation of these would make a lot of sense and could be pretty great.

Turned out to be a bunch of WE WUZ ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS AND SHIEEET, with the author basically replacing Indo-European with the word Baltic and treating sanskrit sources saying that ancient Indians (which are also Balts in his mind) had mastered interplanetary travel as legit. Then after that he goes over early European history because hurr durr they're all Balts.

Fucking disappointing, felt a fair share of second hand embarrasment. Maybe it gets better in the end - I've read about 60% of the book.

I just preordered a guilty pleasure fantasy book, but my last purchases were some Harlan Ellison and algeron blackwood short story collections, a moomin comic book (learning Norwegian so I try to read basic books and i love the art) and Ocean at the End of the Lane by Gaiman, which I gifted to someone else because it reminded me of them.

The disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan manga and some of the Haruhi Suzumiya light novels.
