I just ordered Scott's The Heart of Midlothian this morning. I have this title on my electronic device, but I prefer to have the actual book in-hand.

More to add, since the end of November: Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House; Montaigne's The Essays: A Selection; William Blake's The Complete Poems; Johnson's and Boswell's A Journey to the Western Islands of Scotland and The Journal of a Tour to the Hebrides; and Emma by Jane Austen (the 200th Anniversary Annotated Delux Edition).
