Beginning in January of 2016 I'll be starting a new thread for this post.  This one is getting too long and it's hard for people to check all the posts.  So be sure and repost your lists next month.  Have a wonderful and blessed Christmas!

 

Please note the post from Melanie on page 4 concerning wish listed books.  If you have any such requests on your post here, please remove them.  This site isn't intended for wish listed books.  Thanks, stay cool and happy reading!!

Please note:  if someone responds to your requests, send them a pm and let them know if you're interested or not in their offer. It only takes a minute to let them know and to thank them for their time in pm'ing you!

Check out all the requests for books people are looking for in the posts below. Maybe you have some you can add to your shelves or even let people know directly. 

Some suggestions for using this thread. Please, if you have received books you've listed, mark them off so people know. From the number of people who checked these posts, it's apparent your lists are being seen, and hopefully, responded to. Also if you use the edit tab on your post to change your lists, add to, delete, etc. it will cut down on a lot of repetition. Just remember which page you're on and it will be easy to go back to your original post to edit it.

Here's my list. Feel free to post your own.

I'd love a deal on any of the following: I've updated my list, deleted those I've received and added some new ones.  If any of these happen to be on the club Wish List [some had only one copy posted and may have slipped to the Wish List] please disregard  them. Can you help me out?

I would be interested in deals for children's books and Young Adult books that feature African-American or Latino children.  Or, books with Sesame Street or other cartoon characters.  My office is hosting a holiday book drive for underprivileged children.  If you have any such books and can make a deal, please PM me.  Thanks so much and Happy Holidays!

You know what?  I'd be happy if I could read the last two chapters of Bitten by Kelley Armstrong.  I don't want the book.  I've tried to find just the text for those chapters online, but it's impossible.   My audio player zonked out on me.  I went on to finish  #2 Stolen, which I enjoyed, but there is that gap that is driving me nuts.  I can't think of a way to get it.  I tried the library, and the inter-library loan refused to loan out the book - every library EVERYWHERE!  ????

Wow - it's that valuable?  Maybe I'll run across it at the bookstore (used).

Melanie,

I can't read paperback - bad eyes.  Sometimes I can read hardcover, but normally I do audiobooks.

Looking for Clockwork Prince (hardcover) and Clockwork Princess (hardcover), both by Cassandra Clare. I know these are wish-listed but i'm looking for ones that are un-postable (missing dust jacket, writing on the edges of the book, etc.) 

 

Also looking for anything on my wish list if it's un-postable, just let me know the condition of the book.
