pricciar: (Superman!)
I am starting to get rid of stuff. This is the first batch of books. All of these I have either read and don't think I will read again, or have couple copies of, or just don't think I will read ever or if I want to, I can easily get another copy. These come from a ton of different sources, for completeness sake, I am even including gag gifts, because maybe someone somewhere would want them. Let me know if you want any. If not, I will try to sell them to the used book store. And, if not that, I will just give them to a thrift store.
I put a * rating next to the books I read all the way through, and remember.
