I remember this being a fun thread over on CD's forums, and thought we should have one here as well.
Hopefully someone will have a cool new purchase to showoff - I've got nothing at the moment.

My latest book is The Spite House but Johnny Compton. New author for me:
I received the ARC last year.

I don't have anything terribly exciting to report, but I did use my CC points to pick up Peter Bagge's THE COMPLETE HATE, VOL. 3.
I've loved HATE since I first discovered it in the mid-90s, and it's so great to be able to finally fill in the gaps of all of my missed issues. I don't think any book has ever made me laugh so hard for so long. These collections have really helped me deal with an extraordinarily difficult and stressful year to date.

I wish you lived nearby, so my step-dad would have someone to talk about wood with...

I do need a friend for that! Ha!
Posted elsewhere, but my uncle was a woodworker. Something I didn't know until a few years ago when we reconnected (I headed out to California for my mom's informal memorial and we stopped and visited my Aunt and Uncle for a bit, plus the entire time we were out for my mom) and that's when I learned he was a woodworker. I'm not sure if it was something he always did, or picked up since he had retired.
Couple of weeks ago I sent my Aunt a cutting board I had made and told her that I was really trying to do a good job on a different project just so I could share it with my Uncle. While I may have missed out on that, I know from my cousin that he watched my Instagram posts and was following along with my woodworking journey and was proud of what I had done so far.

My late father-in-law worked with wood, and made us a box in black walnut…that’s a beautiful wood.

Black walnut is definitely gorgeous! It's just too bad it's gotten so expensive.

Earlier today I picked up a copy of the Barnes & Noble exclusive edition of Nat Cassidy's I KNOW A PLACE. It's got a different cover than the "regular" edition, along with 2 additional stories. I have the original, but couldn't pass up the "bonus" content! When I've had a chance to read them I'll update my review on Pages from the Mist

I read an ARC of I KNOW A PLACE, and now I have FOMO over the King introduction, which was not included with the ARC, and the two new stories....
