Book tastes
My favorite books from SantaThing in the past have introduced me to new authors. I enjoy Japanese fiction (English translation) from the early 20th century until current times, haiku (I've been looking for a good book on Issa), Eastern European fiction (Poland, Lithuania specifically), histories or studies of very specific subcultures (or sub-sub cultures), deep dives on specific cinematic styles/periods, histories of unusual or rare music genres, etc. I certainly don't mind US fiction either - some themes I enjoy are time travel, coming of age, or just downright experimental/odd.
Don't get this!
Christian, romance, popular fiction, cookbooks

To librarything, I struggled with finding a book for the remaining 8 dollars. If Mountains of Parnassus doesn't work (it is slightly over price) please substitute for either Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse Five (9780440180296) or Dan Simmons' Hyperion (9780553283686). (dec 3, 2023, 5:46pm)
