Let&#8217;s see how will they help him&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>Before we got in the bookstore, the idea was to protect Stefan and Irina not to spend all their money for books. In the end it turned out that I had to be the one protected, as I got out with:<br \/>\n&#8220;Star shadow&#8221; by Lujyanenko (which I already finished, great book).<br \/>\n&#8220;The Miloshevic trial&#8221; by Zherminal Chivikov (I&#8217;m almost done with it, really good too).<br \/>\n&#8220;The battle for Orisa&#8221; by Alan Cole and Chris Bunch (from the same series as &#8220;The faraway kingdom&#8221;, which I really liked some years ago)<br \/>\n&#8220;Some luck for later&#8221; by Palmi Ranchev (I really liked his &#8220;Anonymous snipers&#8221;)<br \/>\nThe two volumes of &#8220;Caution, tanks&#8221; by Heinz Guderian (the general, who has invented a lot of the tank war and is responsible for a lot of the German victories in the Second World War).<br \/>\n&#8220;The new Bulgarian demons&#8221; by Jurgen Roth, for which almost everyone has heard.<br \/>\n&#8220;Anticapitalistical thinking&#8221; by Lugwig fon Mises, which contrary to it&#8217;s title looks promising (and short).<\/p>\n<p>I also got two books which I don&#8217;t know who were given to &#8211; &#8220;The Fountainhead&#8221; by Ayn Rand and &#8220;How to write a course paper&#8221; by Umberto Eco. Also finally &#8220;Lenin in Zurich&#8221; by Solzhenitsyn arrived, so I have what to read for at least a few weeks&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>And I&#8217;m also quitting drinking, at least for a while. I don&#8217;t really fancy the idea about alcohol right now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few days ago we celebrated Vlado Karavelov&#8217;s birthday.
