Or make me an offer. A few mystery, three cookbooks and some random too. MOST of these books are withdrawn from the library, just to let you know up front. Please PM me with your order.

I have a copy of The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton. This is a wish list book, but I'm hesitant to repost. Beginning on page 50 through page 100, at the very top corner of each page about 1/2" out & maybe 1" down it appears to be very slight water damage. The texture of that area is different. It looks as though it may have gotten wet from condensation from a glass or something similar. Then from about page 502 through the last page it appears to be the same thing only at the bottom corner.  It's barely noticeable. I recieved the book in this condition & was really disappointed.

Also, while I do not have pets...this books prior home did. There was very visible, what appeared to be cat hair, in the pages of the book.  I've tried fanning the pages to eliminate this but will not guarantee it's all been removed.

I would like to recieve 1 credit for the book. Except for the rules saying no water damage I wouldn't hesitate to repost since it's so very slight. I just refuse to post the book against the guidelines.  I also would not send this one to anyone with an RC stating pet free home!!

Inbox me if you would like to request the book.  I'll take the 1st offer of course.  Thanks.

I have an unpostable copy of The Ocean Between Us by Susan Wiggs.   The first 100 pages or so have water waviness.  Totally readable Hardback.

Let me know if you would like it as a freebie with another book for one credit.

The cost of postage is killing me, so even though I have over 40 wishlisted books to post, I would prefer to send them out at least two at a time to save money.  Please check out my available WL booklist and PM me if there are any books that you would like.  They will need to be on your wishlist and I will post them directly to you.... Also, some of these are ex-library copies which meet or exceed all PBS posting guidelines.  If you have any questions, please PM me.  Thanks!

I have a copy of Castaways by Elin Hildenbrant....There's a little water damage to the last few pages. Actually I think the book came in contact with water droplets on the outside of an iced tea glass. It's perfectly readable with very limited amout of pages showing slight waves. PM me if you would like the book. Thanks.

Also have a few ARC's yet. Link to ARC's.

Lots of choices and I will always consider deals if 3 or more are ordered.

I have an unpostable trade paperback copy of  Wreckage by Emily Bleeker.  The reason it is unpostable is a diaginal crease across the back cover and the last 30 pages have also been creased and then pressed with an iron.  The book is not in unreadable condition in anyway but looks like it got mistreaded in someones backpack.  I bought it and would like a credit for it and I offer a freebie with it from my bookshelf.  Please PM me if you are interested.
