Book Collection! (Call for Input!)
I was going to have Wing make a Link post for this, but I don't think he's ready yet.
See, he loves his stories, historical or fictional. Drama, action, romance, philosophy... his interests are pretty varied, and he's curious as all hell. Plus with all these individuals from Earth he's feeling a bit out of the loop on their pop culture. He'd do better to just ASK someone for a primer on Earth culture, but well, that'd be way too easy.
So he's been collecting books, periodicals, and other forms of literature from the Junk Pile. And hoarding them in his room. And reading them all. (Thank goodness for optical zoom right? He has an old car antenna he turns pages with.)
I already know he's picked up a book on Arthurian legends and The Art of War by Sun Tzu (the title of which perplexed him and the content was definitely not what he expected.) He's likely picked up a few romance novels, too. FOR LAWLZ.
However, what he finds is pretty random, and rather than decide the rest myself, I put the fate of this poor mech's pop culture education IN YOUR HANDS!
So suggest anything you want here OOCly: books, magazine, newspapers, printed fanfic, whatever! Get creative! Give a vague description, make something up, or link me something on Amazon. Just as long as it's enough for me to get a feel for topic and content and then I'll let it seed my CR. (This has started a bit already, a few may have noticed)
If there's something you think would be cool to share in character, he WILL eventually make a Link post asking for books. Or you can stumble across him in the Junk Pile reading or maybe even at Vector's while refueling. Regardless let me know and we can discuss. :D
In the same post he'll probably go further to ask if there's interest in setting up a public library of sorts for the community. If that happens he'll likely donate most of what he's gathered to it, but I'm working up top that still.

And Frankenstein is another great pick. Hmm I could pull some interesting meta from that... /ponders!

plus on a sadistic note I just really like it because it's a book about a guy making terrible choices and not knowing when to stop
LETS BUILD AN ABOMINATION
LET'S MAKE HIM ANGRY AND SAD
LET'S KILL HIS NOT-YET-MADE GIRLFRIEND
LET'S FOLLOW HIM TO THE NORTH POLE
EXCELLENT LIFE CHOICES
