I have The Accidental Werewolf (Accidental Friends bk 1) by Dakota Cassidy 4WL. Paperback version. It looks like it was bent in half and is wraped, possibly due to water damage. Ive had it under a heavy book to flatten it, but no such luck. 

PM me and let me know!

I have a brand new, totally perfect copy of "The Language of Flowers" that is unpostable because I got it from World Book Night and I don't think those can be traded.     There are currently 355 members on the wishlist for it.   If you'd like it, please PM me (don't post here as I don't check often).    I'd like one credit for the book.

 

Thanks!!

I have two slightly damaged WL books to offer...

The Sword of the Lictor by Gene Wolfe has many creases and folds in the cover, and the cover is separating from the book all along the spine. The pages themselves are nice and tight though, and no stains on this 30+ year old book.

http://www.paperbackswap.com/Sword-Lictor-Book-Gene-Wolfe/book/0671454501/

Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson also has a cover coming away, towards the bottom of the book. Looks like someone dipped it a bit in some water as the paper's a bit rough there as well. Other than that, no issues.

Free with an order from my shelf, or one credit. Please pm.

I have a copy of The Dry Grass of August.  (170 wishers)

 

 
The Dry Grass of August
spacer.gif
The Dry Grass of August :: Anna Jean Mayhew
ISBN-13: 9780758254092 - ISBN-10: 0758254091
Copies Available: 0
Date Added: 6/5/2013
 49

The cover is a matte sort of paper, with a folded flap that gives the book's summary.  The paper is pretty color saturated (a lovely yellow color).  Unfortunately, it looks as though this color has bled onto the first four pages or so of the book.  None of the pages are text pages.  It looks like a dried liquid stain, but I can assure you that the book has never been wet.  It's an unfortunate light yellow color--use your imagination to determine what that stain might lok like!.  It has no odor.  The stain is about the size of a half a golf ball.

 

I am probably making it sound far worse than it is!  I would like a credit for the book if you are interested!  Please PM me.

UPDATED 7/6/13

Free with an order from my shelf:

hardcover of There Are Things I Want You to Know about Stieg Larsson and Me by Gabrielsson, ISBN 9781609803636, 8 wishers (note:  The book is about the author's close relationship with the author of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo trilogy.  The book was damaged by the USPS.  The top left front cover and top right back cover, including the spine, looks as though something took a bite out of it.  There's a deep groove in the back cover, and the top part of the first few pages near the spine is gone, eaten by the "machine."  Despite all this, the book is entirely readable; none of the text has been harmed.  [I did my own very preliminary "patch job" using a strip of mailing tape and a piece of paper to cover part of the front]).

The Springsweet by Saundra Mitchell (2013) ARC

"Heartbroken over the tragic death of her fiancé, seventeen-year-old Zora Stewart leaves
Baltimore for the frontier town of West Glory, Oklahoma, to help her young widowed
aunt keep her homestead going. There she discovers that she possesses the astonishing
ability to sense water under the parched earth. When her aunt hires her out as a
“springsweet” to advise other settlers where to dig their wells, Zora feels the burden of
holding the key to something so essential to survival in this unforgiving land.
Even more, she finds herself longing for love the way the prairie thirsts for water.
Maybe, in the wildness of the territories, Zora can finally move beyond simply surviving
and start living."
