The following books, all hardback, all have perfect dust jackets, no stains on the insides and show no bookshelf wear that I can find.  If you would like them for potential gifts just order them from my bookshelf and they will be lovingly packed and sent to you.

John Grisham                        The Summons

                                                   The Testament

                                                    The Street Lawyer

Robin Cook                               Toxin

Clive Cussler                            White Death

James Patterson                   Four Blind Mice

Simon Brett                             Corporate Bodies [Charles Paris]

John Sherwood                      The Sunflower Plot [Celia Grant]

 Amanda Cross                        An Imperfect Spy

Gillian Roberts                          With Friends Like These

                                                      How I Spent My Summer Vacation

Lisa Scottoline                           Rough Justice

Lawrence Sanders                   McNally's Bluff

Patricia Cromwell                     Point of Origin

Steve Martini                               The Jury

Tony Hillerman                             Coyote Waits

There are a lot of other books on my bookshelf that show a minimal amount of wear but these are book store quality.  I only have one copy of each book as I do not buy in lots.  All my books are my or Bud's [husband of infinite years] choice

If you can't find anyone interested here, you could try posting them in the Book Bazaar.

I did post it in the Book Bazaar but things move to the back pages so fast I don't think that they are ever seen.

I keep seeing posts members requesting books that can be given for gifts but so far no one is interested.

Thank both of you for yur suggestion

I do have them posted on book bazaar but in someone's post on gift books.  Book bazaar has so much in it that I thought more people would see it here.

Please do not request Margaret Truman's book.  It has just been ordered

Looks like several of them have been ordered.  I tried to order Sunflower Plot and Corporate Bodies but they were gone, and so were a couple of others.

Lebya -

There is also a thread in the Book Bazaar called: Is it too early to list books in giftable condition for Christmas (or something very close to that!!)
