So today i went by a book store by my school. It's like a book fair, but they're permanently. They have random books for cheaper.
Today I bought: The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz by Mordecai Richler The New Press Anthology #2 Best stories The New Press Anthology Best Canadian fiction #1
I got them for 0.99$ and they are brand new...just old version covers.
So I think i'm going to go back and get Edible Woman by Margaret Atwood. Is it a good book?

I haven't read that one but it's supposed to be quite good.
Despite all the controversy, Mordecai Richler is my favourite Canadian author, and I loved Duddy Kravitz!!
What's the address of that book store? I might have some time to spare tomorrow before I have to catch my train home...
(Neat! I've just noticed that we both have Twain quotes for signature ;D)

I read "Son of a Smaller Hero" by Richler and i really enjoyed it. I thought i'd see how this one is.

Barney's Version was great, and so was Joshua then and now. Oh, and The Street was really good too. I've read a few others, but those are the ones that stand out in my mind.

Great, thanks for the tip! (And if I go, I promise not to buy a copy of Atwood's novel if there's only one left )
