I'm not sure if this has been made before or not but anyway. It's just like what the last game and last CD you bought last threads but with book or manga.(obviously)
 The last book I got was Sacrifice by Karen Traviss. It is the fifth book in Star Wars Legacy of the Force. I also got 4 manga books yesterday in the mail. One Piece Volumes 1, 2, and 3 and Bleach Volume 2. My One Piece Volume 1 is Limited Edition, the only diffrence in it that I've found so far is that the cover is shiny and they kept Zolo's name as Zoro.

The last thing I bought book-wise was Black Cat: Volume 3, because I had grabbed 1-13 but 3 wasn't in stock. 14 is out now, but I'm having trouble finding it. That will be my next buy.
I haven't picked up a regular print book in a while now... it's been all manga lately, mostly because it's easy to read while on break at work. Good places to stop are frequent; in a novel, I'm not comfortable unless I get to the end of a chapter.

As far as Manga goes, that goes here: Currently Read Manga
I know it has a different topic name, but I figure they go hand in hand, I guess. Though honestly I prefer Manga to be in the anime forum instead of here. And there isn't one for books, except for the currently reading that is stickied. I last bought: .hack//AI Buster 1 and 2 .hack//Another Birth 1-4 If you want to fly to Cali, cesar, my B&N has 14.

I got Sepulchre, by Kate Mosse. I read Labyrinth and that was pretty good, although it took me forever lol!
When I got Sepulchre, I also got The secret life of a Slummy Mummy, though I'm not too sure about that one... Then again, I've not read much of that - gotta save my concentration for Sepulchre first!

I just bought the final volume of Ragnarok: Into the Abyss by Lee Myung Jin. It's a 'manwah' from Korea translated by a local publishing company. Along with that is Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, a student's edition.
*CERTIFIED AVID SHAKESPEARE READER* And last is Invisible Prey, by John Sandford. Lol I'm a bookworm ^^

The last book i brought was called 'mummy's witness' by Gayle sanders.
Its a real life story of the writer when she was a child and witnessed her farther murder her mum and how her life was from that point. its sad story, but these books interest me for some reason.

Rasler+, please pay attention to my post. Manga/Manhwa goes in the anime forum please.
And Flash, in the OP manga, Zoro is his name, regardless of limited edition.

"Making plans are often the occupation of an opulent and boastful mind."
-Immanuel Kant [Prolegomena to any Future Metaphysics] I bought Philosophical Classics Compendium. My third to date. Michael Chabon's: The Final Solution Werewolves In their Youth Wonder Boys Caleb Carr's The Italian Secretary Rex Stout's And Be a Villain (taken from Hamlet's quote: "That one can smile and smile and be a villain" in reference to his mother) As you can plainly see, I am a very big fan of the Mystery genre. -Sin

I got some stuff from the school recently for being top of the class in three classes, by 'stuff' I mean £30 to spend on books. So I bought to Richard Laymon books, and a book by HP Lovecraft. I don't remember the names, because I'm not getting them until the 17th of June, Prizegiving. I got £6 left over.
 Before that, with my own money, I bought Death's Shadow by Darren Shan. |

I've recently bought Micheal Crichton's State of Fear and Next. I love his books.
