Book Lust

Well, one of the many reasons of the holidays is I get lots of books.
Here is what I have gotten so far:
Non-fiction:

Ernst H. Kantorowicz - The King's Two Bodies

Maurice Merleau-Ponty - Nature: Course Notes from the Collège de France

Jacques Derrida et al. - Ghostly Demarcations

Ralph R. Acampora - Corporal Compassion: Animal Ethics and Philosophy of Body

EDIT: Theodor Adorno - Minima Moralia: Reflections on a Damaged Life

Christian Marazzi - Capital and Language: From the New Economy to the War Economy


Fiction:

Matt Ruff - Bad Monkeys

Victor Pelevin - The Sacred Book of the Werewolf

Austin Grossman - Soon I Will Be Invincible

Warren Ellis - Crooked Little Vein

Anyway, I am sure there are more on the way. But anyone else get good books, or interesting stuff? Or just good winter break/holiday stories?

If so, post them.
