book X Change
we shoudl start a book exchange? swap for price of postage. I have heaps taking up space
I bought 2 today - cost the earth, no wonder aussies only read crisp packets. I bought some old classics just to seem a bit clever on the plane like.
also anyone have any recommendations for good books? I like books about nothing best of all, books that have a story line that is not especially strong, that meander but are interesting and well written. Like the curious incident of the dog in the nighttime, love the mosquito coast by paul theroux, read "a short history of tractors in ukranian.." last week and that was good and the ladies detective agency books. I also like crime/who dunnit type thrillers.
