You don't have a library? :( That's where I get almost all my books.

About to start Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-​Five.

Yeah I have a "local" Library, by local I mean 10miles away from my tiny village haha. So it's a hassel just going into the town just to go to the library. I work in the town but its awkward hours that the library wouldn't be open at. :(

Ah. That sucks. I'm lucky to have a good library system here, with a branch in almost every neighborhood. One is 2 blocks from work (and right at my bus stop), another is a 15 minute walk from home. I can search and place holds on books online, and specify at which library I want to pick it up.

Aww that does suck, for me anyways.
I can't be bothered going through the process of getting a card either. I would rather just buy books, or in my case just now, download them :(

Depending on what book you're trying to find, I'd recommend Gutenberg for legally downloadable books, mininova for other, popular titles, googling the name of the book + pdf for other books not available by the aforementioned means or trying to give a shout out here so maybe we can try and track it down for you....(:

Anyone else read this? I'm in the middle of it right now and it's been really interesting. A book of 13 short stories set in different places and times, but all of the characters are just a little weird. There seems to be a common theme of something that would be considered horrible and/or strange in this world seeming completely normal to people in the stories. The writing style reminds me a bit of David Sedaris.
