Grey Seas Under - Farley Mowat
The Brothers Karamazov (abridged)
What Was Lost - Catherine O'Flynn
McGill course packs for HIST 204, ENGL 357, and LING 350 (these are probably out of date but would be good reading if you're interested in the topics?)


Textbooks (I think these mostly go for ~$60 used, so if you're taking any linguistics courses or COMP 202 at McGill this is a pretty good deal.)

$10 - Contemporary Linguistic Analysis (5th ed.) - O'Grady and Archibald
$10 - Java Software Solutions (5th ed.) - Lewis & Loftus
$15 - Syntax: A Generative Introduction (2nd ed.) - Andrew Carnie
$20 - A Course in Phonetics (5th ed., CD included!) - Peter Ladefoged

I can meet you near any metro stop, and I live in the Plateau so anywhere in that area would be super convenient too.
