But sorry to hear you creased the cover - I hate it when brand-new books get damaged somehow. I like them to stay pristine too, at least the first time I read them!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095246748581382752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604938.post-23838539349778112572009-08-09T17:07:47.832-07:002009-08-09T17:07:47.832-07:00Sue F,

I saw it!" Then he told me the whole plot. It was as fresh as if he'd seen it yesterday. <br /><br />Kristen,<br />I'm so pristine that often used bookstores will give me better prices because they can put the books back out and sell them as "new".<br /><br />Charles,<br />As luck would have it, I saw The Big Sky at another used bookstore in Seoul. Oh no, here I go again...<br /><br />Myza,<br />That guy is Aaron. He used to be in Veronica's bookgroup when he was here in Korea. I really miss him. Small world, eh? Oh...good news...yesterday, the group chose the Guernsey...potato peel pie novel for next time! Yay!Bybeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10061186489010154661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604938.post-69788910438347596522009-08-09T12:05:16.925-07:002009-08-09T12:05:16.925-07:00Hi!

The descriptive language of the country is prose poetry, and this from a reader who's usually pretty indifferent to descriptions of setting.<br /><br />The ending few pages almost take on a biblical tone, rich and sweeping.Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14597439764682468921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604938.post-89860560153338267462009-08-08T14:05:37.179-07:002009-08-08T14:05:37.179-07:00Too bad you creased it!
