Really want to get Anansi Boys, but can't really afford it due to excessive DVD buyage. Though it is payday tomorrow. Let us know what you think, KO.

Re: Book Hauls!
The first two volumes of Outlanders (uneasy mix of the very serious and the very juvenile, but kind of fun and good for a first effort) and the 10-issue run of 2001 Nights (very serious and slightly less clever than it thinks it is, but interesting).
