Well I guess the party is over.....

Looks like the wild 4 for 3 sale that been going on at Borders most of the summer is over!

So I'm REALLY glad now I took one more drink from the well when my July 10% day was about to expire and picked up 4 more...

The Probable Future by Alice Hoffman (of Practical Magic fame - a book I thoroughly enjoyed, by the way).

Kindred by Octavia E. Butler (I should have read something by Octavia a LONG time ago -- so I was doggoned if I was going to pass on this chance!)

Zorro by Isable Allende (I loved The House of the Spirits and I've always loved the character of Zorro -- so I'm looking forward to this one!)

The Odyssey by Homer, Translated by Robert Fagles - (I have always liked The Odyssey much more than The Iliad - which to me is just another story of men behaving badly and I can get that on the news every day.

I've never had the chance to really read the whole thing -- just abridged prose versions. And I have a real soft spot for the clever Odysseus - love a man that can think on his feet! So I'm looking forward to this!)

And while the party may be over, the after party appears to be rockin' on -- last time I was in the store, the 3 for 2 sale was still on! So check it out -- there's still a chance for a deal on a new read!
