Launch! by Jeff Walker. It's awesome so far. It's not fiction though. It's about internet marketing and how to launch a product. Really cool stuff. If you cannot afford the 1,000 dollar coaching program, it's pretty cool.

The last I bought was Thrill Ride mentioned here. But that was more because they sounded mildly interesting and you can't go wrong at 0.99$
The last I bought because I was really interested in the book(s) is the Magnificent Devices: Books 1-4 Omnibus. The first, Lady of Devices, is free at Amazon and a good steampunk novel about a young lady of blood interested in the unladylike pursuit of the sciences in Victorian Britain. |

Wil Weaton - Memories of the Future vol. 1
It's basically Wil reminiscing about his role as Wesley Crusher on the first twelve episodes of season one of TNG. Hilarious and insightful. |

Twice the Growl by Milly Taiden
Fun, sexy story and I highly recommend it to anyone that is willing to open their mind a little and enjoy a great story. |

Last book I got or last book that I got for myself?
Last book I bought was this one last night: Kylie Jean Rodeo Queen by Marci Peschke Still searching for the book that will get my daughter interested in reading. I meant to order this as a paper book, but decided it might be fun to try the electronic version on my iPad first and see if she liked it. She seems to like it and I hope she finished it. I've bought many books that she seemed to like at first but didn't read to the end. The last book I purchased for myself was a NOOK Daily Deal: Laced by Carol Higgins Clark I used to collect her books in my Mystery Guild book club days; I had forgotten all about her and never looked for her ebooks! I don't read her mother's book (Mary Higgins Clark; they are too dark for me) but I enjoy (and used to reread) these books quite a lot. |

Recursion by Tony Ballantyne.
He takes the reader on a crazy sci fi journey and manages to tie together three wildly different stories. Recommended! |

Echopraxia by Peter Watts. A very good hard scifi story.

Last paper book I got was a present for someone. Beautiful Gollancz hardcover of Good Omens.
Spoiler:
Last book I got for myself is an ebook. I don't buy paperbooks so much for myself. I got Under the Dome by Stephen King. |
