About my libraryScattered, diverse, in flux; at best partially catalogued. Mostly acquired from charity shops, bookstalls on rainy pavements, car boot sales, skips, friends, and other meccas of the poverty-stricken bibliophile.

Hi,

Saw you liked Trainspotting, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reading my new novel and posting your comments here (as well as on a few other book-related sites). Thought you might like my novel since it's also about a group of disturbed kids and a bit dark. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like. Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

Thanks,

Chris

Hi. We share a decent number of books - and the other you have are pretty interesting. What's your PhD? MIne was (graduated in July) on Welsh communist literature and masculinity ... the 'transferable learning' people here looked a bit shocked when I told them that!

Yes, We moved house from Paris a year ago, and I now have a library with four walls covered! Librarything is a great blessing, it means I'm looking at books I haven't seen for years!It's a lifetime collection, I want to print it out but I suppose it will take at least 100 pages! I sold a lot of my children's books and rather regret it, I had several hundred...Rupert annuals, Mary Plain, professor Brainstorm etc etc!!!
What is your phd thesis? I'm a bit annoyed Mazon lists mainly American editions! I find the National Lobrary of Scotland rather good! Thanks for message DR

A quick note to say `thanks` for your thoughts on Abe - it was good of you to contribute.

In case you`re interested, we`re going to sell books on both Abe and EBay UK for a trial period starting late Sep/early Oct, and see how it works out in practise. First of all, though, we`re off to Wales for a short break - we`ve spent this year getting our business established, which can only be described as `fun, but exhausting`. We need a break !

Thanks again.
