123-meme!

A couple of days ago Mats included me in a 123-book meme.

Books – I’ve Bought Them

For the first time in, well .. ever, I’ve actually bought books online. Not that the “online” part makes any difference, I can’t remember the last time I was in a book store. I’m not an avid reader, being the Computer Age kind of kid I am(aka procrastinating lazy dweeb).

I require my entertainment in an electronic, digital state. Any type of entertainment complying to these obscene demands are highly regarded, and obviously accepted, in my house. Because of this I’ve, somewhat shamefully, only read one (1) not-gaming-related book. Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. Absolutely loved the shittles out of it, and still remember it surprisingly well, despite being years (two) since I read it. All my other book experiences are game-related. Halo. Warcraft. Starcraft. Mass Effect. Yeah, I’m a gamer.

That being said, I’m really looking forward to getting the books, as the bloody heat wave ravaging through Norway makes anything (including playing games) a sweaty, sweaty pain.  So, what books, if any, did I buy? This isn’t just a lie it is? Have I actually bought anything at all?! Only the bravest, most tech-savvy of my readers will be able to find out, by reading the rest of this entry.
