UPDATE: I remembered a promo code that I had, and so I changed my order slightly. Striked-through items are discarded from my original order.
Last year I got £70 in Waterstones vouchers from school, giving rise to my Large Book Order #1.
This year I won £60, and although I’d prefer money or at least vouchers to a decently priced store (Amazon), I’m not going to complain. I’ve chosen quite a wide selection of 14 16 books, again ones similar to Amazon’s price, and none few that I have read before ((The postman’s going to love me!)):
Penguin Popular Classics
- Moby Dick by Herman Melville
- Aesop’s Fables by Aesop
- Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
- The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde
- The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle
Penguin Great Ideas ((Although these books are interesting, I thought I’d rather get longer books for my money.))
- Books v. Cigarettes by George Orwell
- On the Shortness of Life by Seneca
- The Future of an Illusion by Sigmund Freud
Sci-Fi
- The Forever War by Joe Haldeman
- The Last Colony & Zoe’s Tale by John Scalzi
