Don't you hate it when you read about, or hear about an awesome book that sounds like a great read, but you can't quite get your hands on it? Anywhere? Or, books that you are currently on a loooooooooooooong waiting list for, and just feel like ranting about it?  Talk about it here.
Personally, I'm looking around for the Dragons in Our Midst series, but can't find them.  I also plan on getting Inkspell and Inkheart soon, but I don't know when our next trip to the library will be.

>> Return of the Condor Heroes
>> State of Divinity
All by a Chinese author so the books are translated and now very RARE.

TWILIGHT! *grinds you to pulp*
I want to read The Inheritance pretty badly by Nancy V. Barbarick (Dragonlance again) but none of the bookstores seem to have it.

You do like dragonlance, LDM... [/statingtheobvious]
And Kitoky, I might recomend (though you probably already thought of this) Either eBay, or, some resale bookstores have 'rare book' sections.

I'm annoyed because The Well of Lost Plots seems to be forever out at my library and I want to read it. I can no longer reserve books for free, so I've got out of the habit of doing so. I should just reserve it and fork out the $2.20 or whatever the fee is. *sighs*
I also have various authors, where I'm not desperate to get my hands on a particular book but I get rather annoyed when the only ones on shelf at the library are ones I've already read.
I miss my school library...

I want to read some of Stephen Lawhead's books, especially the Song of Albion trilogy, but they're not at my library. I could probably buy them online or in a bookstore easily enough, but I don't have much money at the moment. lol I also want to read <i>Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency</i> by Douglas Adams, but haven't been able to get my hands on it.

Heehee, the Well of Lost Plots!
Yeah... I lost the book Lost in a Good Book. [confused yet, LoL?]
And I know where it is, but I can't get to it.

I still want the Silmarillion with a nice cover!
I've read it, but I never owned it, because I don't like the cover I can get in the shops around here, but I will get it eventually!

Yeah to get a nice Sil LotR and Hobbit edition would be awesome, but they're sooo expensive.
