Just one? oh my… that would be so difficult. Probably whatever’s at the top of the must-have list so far, or a bestseller. Or just something that looks nice and shiny and gives off an appealing cry of “read me, read me!”

^^ella’s book from ella enchanted! omg, that is such a good idea!

any book? any book at ALL? does it have to exist? because if not, i would choose ella’a book from ella enchanted. you know, the one that has pretty much anything you want? like when she can read char’s diary? which is definitely an invasion of privacy, but…

The illustrated edition of *Stardust*, by Neil Gaiman.
But I would want alot of the books you guys have already mention. But I would prolly just end up doing what I always do: either get a book I’ve never heard of by an author I’ve never heard with a really fool cover, or have my friends choose for me.
It usually always works.

The 4th keisha’ra books by Amelia atwater rose (because I haven’t read it yet)

one of your books (because *cringes* I haven’t read them yet)

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban in hardcover- (because mine is destroyed from a million readings)

The Bermudez Triangle by Maureen Johnson ( because I haven’t read that, either)

or, if we’re talking about a magical bookshop (which is my favorite kind of bookshop!) paper towns, by John Green

Kushiel’s Dart by Jacqueline Carey (if you’re in a exquisitely detailed mature fantasy series mood)

Marked by PC and Kristin Cast (if you’re in a YA vampire mood – liked it for it’s different method of becoming a vampire)

Making Money by Terry Pratchett – his new hardcover – funny funny funny!

And so many more…

I’d be happy with the new Naomi Novik or the latest Sharon Shinn. Happy travels.

I would pick one of the Sabuda pop-up books. That way I wouldn’t hate myself quite as much when I inevitably rip something in there.

Ever since I was 2 I’ve been ripping pop-up books.

I agree with Tessa; my mind reels at the thought.

Does this assume current stock in a given bookstore, or can we pretend they can get their hands on anything (within reason)?

In either case, I’d *probably* go with something I couldn’t normally afford–art books are crazy expensive. Maybe a hardback edition of something I really love. But just one? I’d die of indecision.

I just got the new Naomi Novik yesterday & started reading it last night also!

When I am given this chance, I always pick a brand-new hardcover, bang for buck…

That’s a horrible question, Justine! My brain, it is writhing in agony!

If I was in a pragmatic sort of mood, I’d pick something otherwise expensive, or that I wouldn’t normally spend money on.

If I wasn’t, I’d go for whatever is at the top of my ‘must get’ list.

And if I was feeling ambivilent about the whole thing, I’d make someone else choose for me.
