November not only means NaNoWriMo, mid spring/fall (depending on your hemisphere), the eleventh month of the year, a time to think about the upcoming Christmas season or the fact that I can’t believe it’s nearly the end of yet another year. It’s also the month where the huge book sale happens at the ASB Stadium here in Auckland. last year, as you may recall, I bought about 43 book. This year? I only bought 37. But! I got a huge set of books, and each book had like 3 novels within in. So it counts for more, right?

Like last year, I’m going to be sharing with you the books I picked up. I’ve broken it up into several posts, because 37 is a lot of books and you don’t want all of that crazy in just a single post. Savvy? Here’s part 1!

Death comes to Pemberley, by P.D.James

Have you seen the mini series? I wrote about it last month, and I really loved it. I had seen the book around, but now I have it I’m excited to read it. I wonder how it differs from the show?

Eldest, by Christopher Paolini

The second book in the Inheritance Cycle series, this was the last one I needed to complete my collection. The only thing I’m slightly annoyed with now is that my first book is smaller than the last 3, and my 4th is in hard cover, and the rest are paperback. Ah well.

Dodger, by Terry Pratchett

I actually mostly grabbed this book because I remember when it was released. It came out just before Christmas when I was working in Waterstones in England, and I had to shelve it and re-shelve it … a lot. But looking forward to reading it. I haven’t read much of Pratchett’s stories, but I’d love to get into them more.

Trickster, by Tamora Pierce

When I was younger, my favourite series was the Song of the Lioness, a series about a girl called Alana, and this series, Trickster, is about Alana’s daughter. I don’t believe I”ve read them, but I love all Pierce’s other books. Awesomely enough, this book is actually the whole trilogy, so that’s a bonus!
