I just ordered "Theology of the Body for Beginners," by Christopher West, at my bookstore.

It's a concise and insightful overview of Pope John-Paul II's views on the body and sexuality and how they relate to the spirit and faith. I borrowed it from a friend who's Catholic, and I was blown away by it, so I decided to get my own copy. :3 Hopefully it will come in soon, so I can have it for when we cover Genesis in my Odyssey of the West class...

My latest book buys weren't novels. I bought a book of faerie art for my faerie collection and a Encyclopedia of Mythological Creatures (ok, so my friend bought it for me.)

I just got volume 15 of the English version of the Negima manga. I expect volume 19 of the Japanese version of the same manga to come in the mail soon.
