First book fair!

I have just got back from my first book fair and I couldn't be more happier! I'm writing this right now just so I won't forget to do it later.

The trip to there was a bit tedious considering that it was happening in a bordering country but I had friends to talk to so it was still a lot of fun. Now onto the books themselves. Here where I'm from there's only a handful of publishers for manga and comics much less for the obscure things I wanted. Regardless I'm still ecstatic about the things I was able to get


1. "America" - Franc Kafka

I got this one mostly because it's been a while since I read "The metamorphosis"


2. "Clean C++" - Stephan Roth

I originally thought this was a book to learn C++ but it's actually on how to write clean C++ code, surprise surprise. I'm still thankful that I even managed to get it. The only reason I was able to get it is because a friend saw it


3. "A ghost in the shell" - Shiro Masume

I got this one for 2 reasons. First is that it's the entire manga for only 10 euros and the second one is because the character on the front covered looked like Rei Ayanami. Speaking of which...


4. "Neon Genesis Evangelion" - Yoshiyuki Sadamoto

I nearly had a heart attack when I not only saw the first volume, i.e. the first three since they were all formatted into a single larger manga, but also all the other volumes as well. I already said that manas are rare heremuch less more obscure ones like Evangelion. I jumped the gun and took the first three volumes

Apart from the books I got there are others that I saw and found interesting

- "Hellsing" (it was in the form of a single 'delux' like book)

- "Mein Kampf" (me and my friends were left speechless)

- "Turns out the boy she liked wasn't a boy at all" (the title is something like that I don't remember for sure but the important thing is that that was the first time I wanted to get yuri)

I also saw various alt albums such as: "Nevermind", "In Utero", "Toxicity", "Mutter" etc etc


I could talk about this for hours but this is it for the most part
