Garage Sale #2: BOOOOOOOOKS

PLEASE BUY BOOKS FROM MEEEEEE



THANK YOU

Most of these are books I bought and never read, because I have a serious problem, or books I inexplicably have more than one copy of (both of these situations occur easily when you are in grad school), or that I have read and no longer need/want. I have helpfully divided them into categories which probably only make sense if you are me. Most of them are paperback but if they're hardcover I've noted it.

I'm not really sure how to calculate shipping, but let's try: start at $3 for US shipping for one book, add 50 cents for each additional book? Does that seem fair? For international I have to think about it a bit.

Whatever I can't sell here I guess I will try to sell on Amazon or in person for whatever I can get. D:

ALSO if you have any questions about any of these books (more details about the condition, if it's a collection of essays or a monograph) please do ask.
