I've got a thing for photography, so nowadays when I book-browse I look for large-format photo books (and some photo books really live large) if I'm in a bookstore. So, perhaps those "coffee table books" that you've always wanted, or an old series you've always loved in a quality hardback version for the shelves, or "activity" books (that is, those that you take to an activity, like bird-watching field-guides), might be something to look at. I really can't go past a good quality "coffee table book" (though I hate that term). Large, wonderful images, nicely bound...e-ink isn't quite there yet.

Also, I've a thing for nice stationery, so there's that option too. Get yourself a nice notebook and pen (they don't have to be some high end things - whatever you feel suits you), and keep it with you for those downtimes where you want to jot down some scribblings.

...and, finally, congratulations! When you get used to the idea, you realise you've a whole lot of LIFE! ahead of you.

Cheers,
Marc
