phosfateAmerican Gods, by Mr Neil Gaiman. You don't need me. You've already bought it, or are planning to. Go right ahead, even at hardback prices. And yes, there's at least one familiar face. ^_^
Men in Black: The Grazer Conspiracy by Dean Wesley Smith. For one of the most successful movies in history, Sony has done precious little to exploit it - hell, Marvel never even bothered to reprint the original comics series, which should've been a major no-brainer. Anyway, Mr Smith has written a couple of novels detailing the adventures of Jay and Elle after the film, and they're surprisingly readable. If you're an MIB fan, they'll let you kill an afternoon in familiar company without the extreme annoyance that accompanies, say, the Star Trek equivalent. Pick 'em up to hold in reserve for your next cold, long bath, or plane ride.
Maico 2010, Volume 1 - Translated manga about the world's first android DJ. It wants to be Oh My Goddess but is more like Porkys. Moronic gratuitous panty shots abound. What's really frustrating is that the storytelling and art are excellent - artistically the equivalent of Three's Company starring Gillian Anderson, Sam Waterston, and Margaret Cho.

First, you make me blow my budget on a Lemony Snicket book (OK, my budget may be tight, but it was actually walking *into* a bookstore that did it in...not the price of one book...) and now you have these *other* books that I'm eventually gonna go BACK for...
I have this friend I wanna introduce ya to. She used to say she was never, ever, ever gonna watch another new TV show with me. Then after I hooked her on Harry Potter by reading the first book out loud to her and her daughter in five days she decided she's also not gonna let me read any new books around her...but she didn't say ANYTHING about YOU...*grin*
