Which books are topping your holiday wish-list? (alien.top)

As the holiday season approaches, I want to hear about everyone's top book wishes--whether it's a collector's edition of an old favorite, a book that has somehow evaded your grasp, a book that has been recommended by a friend, or anything and everything in between. Why are you asking for these books?

For me, I'm hoping to get two books that Mike Palindrome recommended, The Collector by John Fowles and Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee. They both aren't at my library, and I've wanted to read them for a while now.

That is a seriously nice edition

I have it. Can confirm. Page, ink, color, binding quality all top notch

Do you have the paperback or the hardcover one? I've been thinking about getting the paperback edition, but it's ~€110 where I live so I'm still mulling over it

Paperback. Got it on Amazon day years ago, 2016, for $60
