Deadline Artists
The Flight of the Falcon

Walter Crane The Illustrators
London Rain
U.S.A.

Sad but interesting, the Kama Sutra was a fancy gift edition. There was a dedication page from and to one set of lovers. Apparently it got tossed and another set of lovers wrote another dedication vowing eternal love on the fly leaf. I guess love isn’t eternal after all. 💔

From a friend’s book signing: Terminal 19.

Bought two books. One because I want to change my diet a bit and the other because we've never sold it before but suddenly it arrived in the store. See if you can figure out which is which...

* Once There Was a War by John Steinbeck
* The Complete Beans & Grains Cookbook from America's Test Kitchen

One bought: The Book Censor's Library by Bothayna Al-Essa. Appropriate for the times we're in.
