http://ideas.ted.com/what-should-you-read-this-summer-a-mega-reading-list/
I bought 3 books this week. For $50 I bought a) a book on Turner, one of my favorite artists since I was a kid getting dragged though a lot of art museums and b) Wild Fruits of the Americas by H D Thoreau. I'd never heard of it and it's interesting in itself and an almost lost book by Thoreau. My grandmother once gave me a copy of Walden and Civil Disobedience, and that's been an influence in my life. I need to see if it's online.
Then for 50 cents I bought "The Path to Power" the first volume of Caro's masterpiece biography of LBJ. I already have it, but 50 cents. I'm still waiting for volume 5.
