*hops around in circles*
Suddenly my week is all better. ^_^
I FOUND IT! Not the book I was looking for originally, but one I was looking for and never expected to find in Australia. Or, only slightly-expected to find, knowing that Kinokuniya sells some untranslated foreign literature, but I didn't expect to find what I was looking for.
But! I found Die Stadt der träumenden Bücher! *squeal*
After a crappy week that included colds, disappointments, public transport woes, my period, slicing my finger open on a razor, and getting up at 3am because I misread the time, THIS is just what I needed. *_* It's going to be slow going, since my German reading is quite slow, but I'm already enjoying the book. So, yay. In English it's The City of Dreaming Books.
Anyway, I'm pleased I found it, and in the original language. I prefer to read untranslated literature if I can. Although I do also have Harry Potter und der Feuerkelch, but that's mainly because I'm insane and want to read the entire series in German now too.
But... *bounce* I found my book! ^_^ *strokes cover reverently*
