glass_icarus, Princeton University Press is having an online sale in the US and Canada until March 31!
I am currently thinking of getting Classical Chinese Supplement: Selections from Historical Texts because I feel I should work on all the 文言文 I memorized in high school, Intermediate Reader of Modern Chinese if it'll work on my iMac, and India Abroad: Diasporic Cultures of Postwar America and England.
I am sad how many books on POC are being written by white people =(.
Things I am not sure I should get but am convinced someone on my r/flist should (all from the "under $15 bin, since I did not allow myself to look outside it for fear of temptation):
... and there is probably a lot more, but I zoned out after a while. Still. Academic books! For relatively cheap! OMG Chinese textbooks!
