ahh, the glory that is books.
Hey, you can never have too many books, right? (Don't answer that, Phil.)
In any case, if you've already read the books (The Giver) there is no law that you have to take it home with you.
That Ulmer books does sound good and I always like Westerfeld.
Jeff M.
PS - The Weather Channel showed a low of ZERO in Detroit.
Nice haul! Those zero temperatures are headed for Buffalo tomorrow. The really Smart People I know have left the Frigid North for Florida and California.
That's not really a lot of books.
Let's make a deal, Patti ... I want to read Alone in Berlin ... gimme a book you want to read (or a Bills T-shirt I bought for you when you were coming to NY 2 years ago ...:)
As Bill said, not a lot of books, but a good start!
I will send along Alone in Berlin after we read it.
And I want that Bills teeshirt.
You should go again... and, well, you know my mailing address.
You cannot imagine how many books are sitting there. Thousands on thousands. And I think it's from all the vacationers who don't want to haul them home.
Must be the tourists. A friend who retired here from Chicago believes Californians don't read books.
Is this place on YouTube, Patti? Perhaps, I can watch and drool.
I think you got some great ones, Patti! Nice finds
Apropos of little but the opportunity to note: the first two venues to publish Ian McEwan in the US, with "Homemade" (1972) and "Solid Geometry" (1975-Feb issue on newsstands at the end of '74).
NEW AMERICAN REVIEW and FANTASTIC.
(Which, of course, both get a fair amount of love on my blog.)
You are providing books multiple homes, and helping a library. (The airline also likes you, if you pay extra.)
Just mailed them from the U.S. Post Office.
