My book wishlist

Here is a selection of books that are currently on my wishlist (besides the said Antonia Fraser books - refer to the previous post Fraser, Antonia).

I am a fan of Mary Roach. Love the way she writes - witty, peppered with a mild sarcasm. I already have two of her books 'Stiff: the curious lives of human cadavers' (bought it from Times @BSC) and 'Spook: science tackles the afterlife' (from a bookstore in Spore). So the following two books will complete my Mary Roach collection.

'Bonk: the curious coupling of sex and science'

'Six feet over: adventures in the afterlife'

Then there's Paul Theroux's 'Kowloon Tong'

I have yet to read a 'proper' version of 'The Three Musketeers' so when I stumbled upon this penguin deluxe edition, I know I got to have it!
