book list

Here's the list of the books we've gotten so far. There's a good number of non-fiction books, and I wish I could get more histories. Our spec fic haul is pretty satisfying (the Link, the Mitchell and the Borges alone are enough to make me smile) and Tatar's annotated volume is simply wonderful. And at last I was able to pick up a couple of F&SF and Asimov's magazines.
