Noticed you liked Clockwork Orange, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a group of violent kids (and also a bit dark). I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter) in case you'd like to read more about the book before you commit:

Thanks,

How nice to hear back from you so quickly! It's too bad for all of us that we don't (yet?) have a way to download using the ULI - I'd love to see more Hebrew titles(and all languages, for that matter). Hang in there.

Hello - if you don't mind a request from someone 'out of the blue,' I'm wondering if there's a reason that ten or so of your authors are listed with numeric codes (880-etc). Perhaps this is an artefact of the download? In any event, it would certainly help with combining if you would edit those author entries. Toda raba!

hi ijon
i'm also waiting for the uli catalog, but meanwhile i found most of my hebrew books listed in either columbia university (the clio catalog) or the library of congress. chicago university and boston university are also good sources.

Hi there!

I'm trying to clean up the Neil Gaiman listings, and was wondering if you could edit your "Sandman" entries to indicate which volumes you own?

what is the unified library index? does that mean that actual books in hebrew will be easily searchable? godalmighty. i'm jealous of your lifetime membership!
