selkie at 08:50pm on 07/07/2010I meant to make a post about ALA ARCs and gladly sending them off to people for the cost of media-rate shipping, because our living room is cluttered with books right now. I am cleaning out stocks for our eventual move. This is NOT the post about ALA ARCs -- and anyway only Penguin blew their wad this year with pre-release copies -- it is a post about books that I have loved, that I would like to see Go to a Good Home. If you can paypal me anything at all for shipping, they can be yours!
H.D. Helen in Egypt. Poetry. Way out of print.
Terry Pratchett, Making Money.
Mary Gentle, the Ash series of books (four paperbacks, U.S. release). These books are seriously good, and I will always be fond of them. If you are looking for a summer reading series, I recommend these.
Abraham Lewin, Diary of the Warsaw Ghetto. Out of print, hard to find, esoteric, and expensive in English.
Garth Nix, The Seventh Tower series (complete in two hardbacks).
J.R.R. Tolkein, The Hobbit, excellent leather edition with slipcase. Embarrassing gift inscription from ex-girlfriend, too, but very nicely kept.
Hella Winston. Unchosen: the Hidden Lives of Hasidic Rebels. Got a paper to write? This one was costy, too.
More to come, I'm sure. If you were at ALA and didn't grab something/wanted something on a day you weren't at the show, let me know, I might have it.

. . . Are you sure you want to get rid of it?

I also have your Ilario. I didn't break the spine, mosely because I only read the first book. But I know you were particular about that.

I am not yet at Readercon; it starts tomorrow.
But the fact does remain that Noel is building a library of her own, and all the flats we're looking at have 700 fewer square feet for bookcases than our current lovely excess of house.
I still think you should hold on to the esoteric, expensive, and out-of-print historical document.

the Winston book. If you have anything else Jewish-themed that you might want to get rid of, let me know?

Thank you!
