After seeing Avengers I wanted to read a bit more about some of the characters, non-comics reading that is. So I picked up Captain America and the Struggle of the Superhero and popped it on my iPad.

For fiction I picked up Black Wings of Cthulhu, a fairly awesome looking anthology edited by S.T. Joshi.

Embassytown by China Mieville.

after reading issue 1 of Dial H it made me want to check out his work.

Bought a 15$ mystery book by Christine Brouillette and apparently left it in the shopping cart. I am extremely angry at myself right now.

The Ghost in love - Jonathan Carroll - the only book by Carroll I've not got round to reading as yet
Lords of the Starship - Mark S Geston - one of those science fiction writers very few people remember but I love the premise of this book in particular , and when you consider it cost a grand total of £0.01 plus £2.80 P&P from Amazon , i couldn't resist

Skagboys - Irvine Welsh

The Long Earth by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter, a new science fiction novel about humanity discovering a seemingly infinite series of uninhabited, easily reachable parallel Earths.
