eBook Deals and Duck & Cover

There are tons of great deals today only so I figure you may want to know if you actually have self-control and don't check Amazon daily like me. The craziest is that I'm at the point where I know that it would take me years (like 10 probably) to get through all the books I own and the fact that I keep buying makes it so I will never catch up. The life of a bibliophile amiright?

[$1.99] Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace - Been meaning to read this for aaaaaages.

Kerem Beyit is a new artist to me, but I like the colors and now I'm interested in this book.

Duck and Cover - Blackbirds by Chuck Wendig

This is a great cover I found through Twitter, and thus through the author, Chuck Wendig's, site.


Will have to keep my eye on Blackbirds by Chuck Wendig from Angry Robot books.

Oh, and sorry for no review this week. It's been insane. Will catch up this weekend though.
