Just wanted to say I added a whole pile of Children's books to my inventory this morning! My younger brother seems to have lost interest in them (and there's no more room in his bookcase).
http://bookmooch.com/m/inventory/murdere...I will probably be adding more over the past few days as we do some late-spring cleaning.
BMJournal: What I Want to Be When I Grow up!
If you haven't done BMJournals before, they are a sort of collaborative art project. You add to the journal then pass it along and someone else adds something, then they pass it along, etc. I love them. This one is about dream careers. You can just write, or use poetry, collages, photography, drawings, etc. I'm the very first person to do it, and I'd love to see other people add to it. It was fun to think about.Mooched!

I'll be putting in my inventory The Secret Diary of Anne Boleyn by Robin Maxwell very soon, if there are any Tudor amateurs out there!
It's yours! I'll reserve it for you as soon as I put it in my inventory (this evening probably).

Thanks so much, Spinifex!
http://bookmooch.com/m/inventory/sauscon... I have a little bit of everything (romance, YA, fantasy, science fiction, horror...) and I'm hoping to add some more science fiction and fantasy soon (I'm doing yet another weed-out).
Sorry for the double post, my computer had a hiccup or something.

I am about to add
Voyager by
Diana Gabaldon to my inventory later today, if anyone is interested.
This is a heavily wishlisted book. If anyone in this group is interested in it, leave a message on my profile, and I will reserve it for you.
Some qualifications -- although the front cover is good, binding is tight, and there are no spine creases, the book has a couple of issues -- there is a scuff mark along the spine side of the bottom edge, the top right corner of the back has been crumpled slightly, so the back cover has a small crease, and the last ten pages of the book have been bent. Lastly, the top right edge of the back cover is starting to peel back a little. At first glance, however, the book looks great, it's only when I look at it critically to make condition notes that I notice these defects. ;-{
Here's a "heads up" on another book that I just added to my inventory:
No Time: Stress and the Crisis of Modern Life by
Heather MenziesThis one will probably never go, because people will search for it by topic, rather than by this specific title, so here's a "snippet" of information from the book jacket to help promote this book:
"Somewhere between the multi-tasking pace and the sea of data divorced from real life, we're losing touch with ourselves and with each other. We're even losing a sense of how to tell when things go wrong and how to take action when they do. Weaving together personal conversations, wide-ranging research and insightful critique, "No Time" speaks directly to what lies beneath the surface of many issues confronting society today. It also ends on a note of hope by suggesting what we can do to restore balance in our personal lives, renew humanity in our social institutions and create a more human scale of time and space in our social environment."Message edited by its author, Jun 12, 2009, 8:20am.
Any
Robert Jordan fans out there?
I ended up with duplicates of the
Wheel of Time series, volumes 2 to six. Here are the titles:
The Great Hunt
The Dragon Reborn
The Shadow Rising
The Fires of Heaven
Lord of ChaosI've held off listing them, because they are so thick that I know the postage is going to be awful, but I'm really short of points, so I'm listing them now.
I'd prefer to keep them together if I can, but I realize that's probably not going to happen.
All of them are in very good condition.
I'm listing them here first, as a "heads up", but I'll be adding them to my inventory soon.
Update: I've also added
Fleshmarket Close by
Ian RankinIt's in excellent condition.

I have a little bit of everything in my inventory, including books in spanish. Here is the link:
http://www.bookmooch.com/m/inventory/jul...And this is gone! Thanks!
I just listed an Uncorrected Proof Copy of RAINBOW'S END by Lauren St. John in very good condition:
http://www.bookmooch.com/m/detail/024114...but since this is a heavy book, I only can acept an international request if there is a second mooch.
Thanks!

In need of points! 'Australia only' marked books please ask for an angel or you can multi-mooch from me if the cost isn't too high, just ask. I can send 3 kg satchels within Australia and am willing to include free books in those so long as I have enough points to do so (ie. remove them from the inventory).
Books include the Sixth Sense trilogy, six books by John Bellairs, five books by Peg Kehret,
The Case of the Vanishing Boy by Alexander Key, an ARC (
Chancey of the Maury River), books on horses, dogs, twins, family, survival, kidnapping, science fiction and Newbery.

Running low on points, so I decided to add a whole pile of stuff to my inventory.
I've got
Beginner's Latin for anyone interested in languages.
I also listed more National Geographic and GameInformer magazines. (which are 3-for-1, by the way. I have too many of them.)
There's also
Cardcaptors, Vol 10, which is a cine-manga, a full-color comic version of the anime.
I still have quite a selection of kids books and several dragonlance novels too. They're clogging up my space, get them off my hands!

Thanks, saratoga! What can I say but "duh"?
No, not "duh." An "aha" moment. Library Thing is not only about books, it is a learning experience, a meeting of new and interesting people, and no question is ever a wrong one, and sometimes, no answer is the right one.
I can't put these in my inventory because the site's down, but I found three books by H. P. Lovecraft today at the library sale:
At the Mountains of Madness,
The Shuttered Room, and
The Tomb. They are Ballantine paperbacks printed in the 70s with some slight yellowing. There is very little creasing and they are clean inside and well bound.
Any takers? I'd love to send all three in one package! :)
Due to the huge size of my 'to be read' pile, I have decided to stop mooching books for a while.. well unless I REALLY want it and its on my wishlist :) . But that does not mean that I can't send out and keep the BM spirit alive.
My inventory is at
http://www.bookmooch.com/m/inventory/mar...All childrens books are 2 for 1 and all recipe booklets are 3 for 1.
I send worldwide, regardless of postage costs.
FREE books for international moochers!
I'm giving away my entire inventory. Mooch all you can for FREE--will charity back points asap. (At least I get 1 bonus point for every mooch).
Will send within a week or two. Promo until 31 July or when books run out--whichever comes first.
http://bookmooch.com/inventory/cezartign...Wow, that's an incredibly generous offer cezartigno!
And how cool that you can send books anywhere regardless of the costs Mareofthesea
Plus the site's back up and I just got an Angel to mooch a book on a whopping 112 wishlists. It's a great day for the magic that is BookMooch :D
I've just added a load of Children's fiction books to my inventory and a couple of YA books.
I've got
3 Anne Fine books left which considering how slim they are I'd be willing to do a 2 for 1 or even 3 for 1 offer on them.
Also got a copy of
Matilda,
Wolfspeaker by Tamora Pierce, and a couple other miscellaneous books.
If you want to check out my inventory (I'm ask first for international mooches outside the UK) it's here

42- I'll take you up on that 3 for 1:) I used to love Anne Fine but I don't have a clue where my copies are now(probably gave them to my sister who got rid of them).
Message edited by its author, Jul 3, 2009, 6:49am.
>44 if you want them feel free to mooch them, but they are for younger children i think rather than some of the YA books she's written.
ETA: i see you already have lol
