Artemis Fowl

oh... no biggie. just a pleasant surprise. i had dinner earlier this evening with my parents and sister at Greenbelt. While waiting for our food, ate K and i decided to look around over at Tower Records and Powerbooks, being the music and reading buffs we are. In particular, i was looking for The Adventures of Kavalier and Clay (a Pulitzer prize winning novel... about comic books, among others!) by Michael Chabon since it the store had no stock a few weeks ago. As i was browsing the new books section, leafing through a Roald Dahl compilation, something very unexpected caught my eye... A new Artemis Fowl book! Yay! needless to say, i snapped it up.
i couldn't wait to get home and start reading my books, both of which i'd better finish soon. i HAVE to (seriously) start studying for the boards soon...
