Hi, I was wondering if there was a forum or thread where people could post AA romances &/or fiction? I'm looking for a specific book for my mother & I already WL'd it but I would love it if there was a way to find this book without waiting for someone to post it.

Have you tried Amazon, Ebay, Borders, Half.com etc...? 

You can also start hanging out in the L/R forum and start a discussion about AA romances.  You can't really post asking for a WL book.  But you can keep an eye out in the WL thead to see if someone lists it there.  And if you start a discussion about AA romances you might find someone who has it and posts the book.

I've thought about going to the above sites but I'm very leery about putting my personal information online. I do know that it's against the rules to ask for WL books which is why I refrained from including the title of the book I'm looking for. I will definitely look through the post in L/R to see if anyone is offering the book. If not I will probably make a post on AA romances/fiction although I hope it doesn't come to that. I have no clue about AA  romance/fiction. Thank you for the advice, Mary! smiley

If there's an unusual word in the title, you can do a forum search for that word.  Just a thought.

I've been ordering from Amazon for years and have no problems.  I lived on an island for 9yrs.  We became pretty dependant on online shopping.
