Sorry I haven't updated in forever-- I've been busy because I have an awesome new job! Yay! I now work at the ultimate yarn mecca: WEBS. (www.yarn.com for those not in the know. *grin
( Read more... )
You exist! Woo-hoo! It’s good to see your userpic again.
If you haven’t been reading, either, there’s been a lot going on in my life. New sweetie (or at least highly boffable friend), trip to NYC to see eisa and lots of museums, and so on.
I would very much like the first four: Midnight's Children Salman Rushdie A Canticle For Leibowitz Walter M. Miller Their Eyes Were Watching God Zora Neale Hurston if you managed to miss this one in high school, pick it up and read it now-- it's really good! Maiden Voyage Tania Aebi a really unusual and fascinating book about a young woman who randomly decides to sail around the world. I highly recommend it. I love what little Salman Rushdie I’ve read, I can’t find my copy of ACfL, and it may well have been water-damaged, I haven’t read any Zora Neale Hurston! and I love books about sailing, especially nonfiction.
Oh, and I’d also love the Erica Jong if nobody else wants it; I’ve only ever read Fear of Flying, and that was when it originally came out back in the Pleistocene
( ... )
WEBS only sounds like a big chain, it's actually a single, family-owned store. Yay for yarny jobs for everyone!!! I figured that out when I looked at the web site. I’ll have to ask cathijosephine the name of the place where she works.
Oh, and I didn’t see the whole list when I first replied. I’m also interested inRocannon's World Ursula K. LeGuin Midnight Dean Koontz Polar Star Martin Cruz Smith The Puppet Masters Robert Heinlein Oh, and I highly recommend Bharati Mukherjee’s Jasmine.
You can have as many books as you want! --but the Maiden Voyage's already been claimed. You'll have to fight beowabbit for it if you really want it. *grin*
Woot! The other two I have are Damia and Damia's Children-- both of which I adored back in the day, and will probably surreptitiously reread before I send them off to you (if you want 'em).

Any chance you'll yield either Dancing At the Edge of the World OR A Place Where the Sea Remembers to wavestar? If you're really attached to both, that's ok-- you did call them first, after all.
Neverwhere Neil Gaiman A Place Where the Sea Remembers Sandra Benitez and Dancing At the Edge of the World: Thoughts on Words, Women, and Places Ursula K. LeGuin
Hmm. It might be. I don't know where my copy is, but I usually just assume books I'm uncertain of like that are somewhere at my parents' house. Did I loan it to you, then?
