I don't think anyone has started this thread yet... if so, I apologize for the redundancy!

This morning I sent out a few novels to BookMoochers:

Ender in Exile to Virginia
Downtown Owl to Missouri
Another Thing to Fall to Illinois

With the exception of Ender, recently read and enjoyed by my boyfriend, the books were ARCs a little outside my usual genre -- I'm passing them along instead of letting them gather dust in the many book stacks around my house.

Having a lull on my Book Mooch books. I should probably add more to my inventory, but I am reluctant to do so with the economy, and the fact that the place I work for is circling the drain. Don't want to have Mooches I owe, and am suddenly unable to send (unemployed).

Sent out a whole mess of ARCs and other books from around the house to BookMooch members:

The Butterfly Garden
The Sharing Knife, Volume Three: Passage
Dreaming Again
Wrath Of A Mad God
Frangipani
Walking Through Walls
A Journal For Jordan

Two went to an APO; one was to Maryland, my home state; others went to Utah, New Jersey, Minnesota, Delaware and Pennsylvania. Very busy! I don't think I'll be sending anything out anytime soon -- I have 20 points accrued on BookMooch and haven't seen too much I'm looking for popping up on my Wishlist lately. We'll see!

I donated The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night-Time, The Solomon Sisters Wise Up and An Abundance of Katherines to a local used-book store... and came home with quite a few new books, of course! A very good bookish Saturday!
