Pimp Your Inventory - June 2010

It's a new month -- time for a shiny, new thread!

Added two Arcane Society books by Jayne Ann Krentz to my inventory this morning:

Sizzle and Burn -- Mooched
A little worn around the edges, and has a couple of spine creases, but looks respectable, and is in decent, readable condition.

Running Hot -- Mooched
Has several light spine creases, but otherwise is in very good condition.

Since both of these books are wishlisted, I thought I'd give those of you on the forum a "heads up".

Reposting until someone bites...

I would like to offer up the copy of Permanent Obscurity that I received from the author via Member Giveaways. If you can answer "yes" to the following, please PM me and I'll reserve it for you on BM:
1) Are you in the US? (Because I'm not sure the book is for sale elsewhere.)
2) Will you post a review on LT?
3) Will you pass it along to another LT member when you're done?
4) Have you done your due diligence re: "mature" content? (The full title should tell you enough.)

LitClique, I'm not sure that your conditions are really in line with BM guidelines. When you send someone a book, you're giving up all rights and interest in the book, and it's really up to that person (who is now the book owner) what he or she is going to do with it. I don't think BM allows its members to set conditions like that. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong!

Would anyone be interested in my Early Reviewer ARC of The Sword (Chiveis Trilogy)? I was also thinking of posting a trade paperback of Graham Swift's Waterland. Both are in good condition with minor shelfwear.

4>Well, I'll welcome official judgment. The author was nice enough to send me the book, so I hoped to do right for him and try what I could in ensure more reviews.

Perhaps you could give it away via the Member Giveaway Program, where you would be allowed to make a review a condition of the request. But of course, you wouldn't be able to control who got the book, and that person would be allowed to keep it if he or she wanted to.

6>I considered it but I thought using BM would be faster. Anyway, the offer's had about four days with no takers, so I'm pretty close to pulling it.

I just posted a copy of "Darkly Dreaming Dexter" by Jeff Lindsay, found here:

http://bookmooch.com/m/detail/0307277887

The condition isn't great, but it is readable. If anyone is interested, let me know! (It's already reserved for "friends", but I can change the reservation.)

New US only member posting over 40 current books:
http://bookmooch.com/inventory/gottoshop

Bcteagirl, thanks for bring new inventories to our attention. That's a really good idea. Some of my best mooches have been from newbies who added great new books to the system.

Same here :) Happy to help.

If anyone is interested, I just posted...

North and South :: Elizabeth Gaskell
Emma Brown :: Clare Boylan

i just posted a children's book called Sun and Moon that I received to review. It's practically giftable but I found the content way too new-agey and kind of weird for a kids book. That said, it's on my inventory now.

I have a copy of The Likeness if anyone is interested. Send me a PM if you are.

I have a copy of the UK hardcover edition of Brick Lane--details and condition here:

http://bookmooch.com/m/detail/038560484X

Two hardcovers bought from libraries with slipcovers and bar codes still attached. The Memory Keeper's Daughter and Spacer and Rat.

Can someone tell me if books bought from libraries mooch well? Just started today...Though an older popular book and relatively obscure one might not be how I should evaluate if the library condition is affecting things.

Later today I will have available:

Shanghai Girls
Death of Ivan Ilyich

Leave me a message if interested.

#16 _ I've mooched/sent out plenty of ex-library books, so I don't think there are any problems - just be sure to mention it in the condition notes, though!

As well as the specific condition of that ex-library book. Some are really on their last legs and covered with library IDs, and with others it's hard to tell they ever were library books.

17> I would love to read Shanghai Girls!

http://bookmooch.com/m/inventory/susiesharp

I am pimping my already listed inventory I am set at ask first but will send just about anywhere except for
Hardcover US Only-
Flashpoint by, Suzanne Brockman
Revenge of the Middle-Aged Woman by, Elizabeth Buchan
You Belong to Me by, Mary Higgins Clark
Silent Night/All Through the Night : Two Christmas Novels by, Mary & Carol Higgins Clark

Well, here goes.

I am getting rid of my Twilight series. Two are hardcover and two are trade paper, all in excellent condition. I'm at work and they're at home, so don't know which are which. I won't ever re-read them and my daughter got disgusted after the second one.

US only. All four at once to a good home.

PM me.

>21 susiesharp:: Snagged your Buchan book. Thanks much!

@18/19: I've listed that they're hardcovers with the standard library slipcover and the barcode. It's a lot of work getting the barcodes off without ruining the covers off, so I usually don't bother.

Thanks for letting me know I didn't miss any steps listing these things!

Shipped my first mooch today, now to watch my wishlist for something to snag!

amy-is your bm name listed on your profile page? It is helpful listed there.

One of our tenants is moving out today so I have a bunch of very nice condition chick-lit and marriage themed books up in my inventory.

http://www.bookmooch.com/m/inventory/macsbrains

Also, I have these Sookie Stackhouse books by Charlaine Harris which I haven't listed yet in case someone wants the set. I have no qualms about splitting them (it's not a full set anyway). They are in very nice condition (perhaps read twice? some have light spine creasing) but as an allergy warning they do smell like perfume.

These are the ones I have:

Living Dead in Dallas (#2)
Club Dead (#3)
Dead to the World (#4)
Dead as a Doornail (#5)
Definitely Dead (#6)
All Together Dead (#7)
From Dead to Worse (#8)

Will send anywhere!

@macsbrains

I would like "From Dead to Worse", if it is still available!

>27 orangewords: it's yours! I've reserved it for you & sent an email.

I have mooched it. Thank you very much!! :)

I am pimping!!!

OK! So I am was about to put these books in my inventory, but I am going to give you guys a head start. If you want any of the books you can pm and I will reserve it for you once I put it in the inventory!

Premonitions by Judy Blundell (Jude Watson)

Most of these are YA and all are Paper Back

I also have The Chronicles of Narnia books 1,2 and 3 already in my inventory (paper back)

PMed you!

Anyone want Skinny Bitch and Skinny Bitch in the Kitch by Rory Freedman?

They are both in good condition, with 'In the Kitch' being almost like new.

Also, I have a really battered, musty, falling apart copy of The Cat of Bubastes, by G. A. Henty. This book is HEAVILY wishlisted on BM. It is not the 2002 reprint--this is an edition put out by the Federal Book Company (who went out of business in 1904). MOOCHED!

I've just mailed out the last of my backlist, and you all know what that means! It's time to add new things to the inventory!

I have a very nice set of hardcovers of the Sevenwaters Trilogy in the smaller hardcover format. All books are in very good condition; all come with dust jackets:

Mooched!
Daughter of the Forest | 031284879x
Son of the Shadows |0312848803
Child of the Prophecy | 0312848811

I would like to send all of them to one moocher. International requests will need to ship via Angel.

Hi MyriadBooks,

I would very much like the Sevenwaters Trilogy!

Finally went through and set aside a shelf just for moochable books. A lot of manga, mixed with a little urban fantasy and classics in my mooch inventory now.

The Devil Does Exist 1-8 by Mitsuba Takanashi

Oh, sorry!

http://bookmooch.com/m/inventory/elkiedee

I just added the following two paperbacks in the "Children's Classics" series to my inventory:

"Captains Courageous: a Story of the Grand Banks" by Rudyard Kipling -- Requested
I don't think that this one is abridged.

"David Copperfield" by Charles Dickens
Please note: This is a paperback -- and is an edition that is abridged for older children (160 p.). The ISBN brings up the wrong record (for a hardcover edition).

Both of these paperbacks are "Children's Classics" editions by Bloomsbury Books, and have the words "Children's Classics" in a small gold oval on the cover. (They match each other).

They are both in good condition -- no spine creases or evidence of reading.

I've added this book (on multiple wishlists) to my inventory:

"The Lost" by J.D. Robb, et. al. -- Mooched
Please note: This is a book of short stories by various authors. J.D. Robb is merely the first author.

The book has a few spine creases, and the spine is very slightly tilted, but otherwise, it's in good condition.

I would love Sweetness in the Belly! I'm peripa on bookmooch. Thanks!

I did a huge yard sale for my Mom this weekend and got lots of books for you guys!

Let me know if you are interested in any of them and I will reserve them for you.

I will ship worldwide but international requests will most likely be sent in July at the latest.

If there is some more place in the latest package you are sending me, I would like the Mary Higgins Clark one :)

I will reserve it for you, Annie!

I have:

The Ground Beneath Her Feet by Salman Rushdie (Hardcover and Large print edition)
ISBN: 0783887132

Mine is an exlibrary copy (sticker on side and stamps) but is in good condition. The binding is tight and pages are clean. No stains and no water damage. Contains that library clear plastic cover. Definately heavy reading!!!

Other editions of this have a large wishlist but for some reason mine doesn't. If someone has been waiting for this book and would like this copy please let me know and I can reserve it for you. I can not mail this book out of the country. It is close to 3 pounds wrapped.

I would love to take The Ground Beneath her Feet, if it's still available.
In addition, I have an edition of Langenscheidt Compact German-English Dictionary, if anyone wants it.

51: Bcteagirl, I would love Colored Pencil Step-by-Step for my daughter. I did a friend request with you on BookMooch so you can reserve it if you still have it.

I will reserve it for you now! :)

Bcteagirl, would you be willing to send the Elements of Style to the UK? If so, I'd love to mooch it!

50...

6-9-10 *all listed on bm now under BO

well guess this could be considered a 2 in 1 post type of thing but since it was a book I got at PBS I figured to put it here. I ordered Vasco, Leader of the Tribe by Anne-Laure Bondoux on PBS and in specific it was to be placed on the middle school shelf. So of course since it is to go to a school I was hoping for a hard cover in "good" condition. There is no water damage but someone I think bent this book up bad. Because the wrapping from USPS had no damage and the back cover remains flat I feel this person actually sent the book this way. I took a picture of it here:

http://img37.imagefra.me/img/img37/6/6/8/tradewithme15022/f_dtaxntam_2e18dbc.jpg

I can't put this on the school shelf, even I myself would find it difficult to read a book in that condition. Maybe someone else wont mind it??? So I am offering it FREE to a good home. No BM points, no PBS points. ISBN numbers are 9780385733632. Let me know here if you want it and then I can get your address by PM through BM. Other than being seriously bent (I have set it with a cinder block on it for a day and that is as flat as it got) the book very nice shape. Just not useful to me or the school.

It just so depressing when books arrive like this. Any takers?

I just posted a bunch of vintage books - religion and jr. great books mostly.

I'll be posting more this evening.

I"m Sandygirl on BM.

@60

I will give it a try. My husband can probably figure out a way to flatten it back down a bit. Breaks your heart when people treat books like that, doesn't it? I'm dkhiggin on BM, too.

#59: Can you reserve Secret Life of Bees for me?

60: I've never seen a book bent like that. I checked Amazon and they have a new copy for .49 plus shipping.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/0385733631

62... I messaged you

64... me either. We used to order off of Amazon with sellers but quickly stopped. It was too confusing to figure out what was or wasnt on the way after sellers either wouldn't send the item, cancel cause it had already sold on another site or who knows why they cancelled. Plus with PBS we buy credits at times in the bizaar for 2.50 or less each and get books that way. That beats the 3.99 shipping on Amazon tee hee.

#63 qforce The Secret Life of Bees will have your name on it.

All paperbacks listed below are used in great shape. from a non-smoking home now & a pet owner!

Dead until Dark by Charlaine Harris

The Betrayal by Beverly Lewis

The Sacrifice Beverly Lewis

The Prodical Beverly Lewis

The Revelation Bevely Lewis}

The Preacher's Daughter Beverly Lewis

will list on bm under BO later today.

67- BONS can I reserve all the Beverly Lewis ones? They are all ones I've not read yet!

I've been eyeballing The Preacher's Daughter at my used book store for quite a while, but haven't had the extra to spend.

I'm Sandygirl on BM

Hey dakota--I can reserve all 5 for you

69: Thanks BONS - I'll take them all. Just send me an email when you reserve them so I can find them easier.

I realize that I just posted four new books and - SO SORRY - I forgot to give you all an early "heads up" So if you want any of these, just go directly to bookmooch (I am glendaham there too)

My Life in France by Julia Child ( and her nephew) - very good condition
Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch albom - hardback excellent condition with perfect bookjacket ... except for "Happy Birthday Em" inscription on flyleaf.

the five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom. companion to previous Albom book except no inscription. gift quality.
Paris The Secret History by Andrew Hussey good condition

As always, most of my books are from garage sales, boxes of discarded books from friends or used book sales at libraries, so no guarantee smoke-free or pet dander-free.

Edited for bad spelling

BONS, which cover does Dead Until Dark have? The illustrated, or HBO version?

I found a bunch of Anne McCaffrey duplicates in a shoebox buried in my closet... anyone interested in them?

They're all in used condition with some yellowing and shelf wear and spine creases but the bindings are all tight and the covers are all in tact without any bends or tears.

Dragonquest
Dragonsdawn
Dragondrums
Crystal Singer
Killashandra

Dragonflight - Has weird spotty yellowing inside the book, not just the edges. If you mooch another one, I'd be more than willing to throw this one in for free. It's entirely readable but I'm picky about book condition and it would personally drive me nuts.

>73 f_ing_kangaroo:

I'm collecting the Dragons of Pern series and would love to have Dragondawn and Dragondrums. I already have Dragonquest and Dragonflight. Are Crystal Singer and Killashandra part of the series? I don't remember seeing them on the list. If they are I'd like to have them if they are not then I'll stick with the Pern series and see if I like McCaffrey's writting. I'm artemisathene on BM and thanks!
~ Missy

>74 cdnbookworm: Crystal Singer and Killashandra are part of a totally separate trilogy. I feel a pang of Pern nostalgia now. :)

>74 cdnbookworm: I recently acquired about 200 books from an elderly neighbor who has to "downsize" I know nothing about sci-fi/fantasy, but in organizing these books, so far, I have found 6 books by Anne McCaffrey:
Damia
Damia's Children
The Wings of Pegasus
the Masterharper of Pern
Chrystal Line
The Dragonriders of Pern three books in one, Dragonflight, Dragonquest, The White Dragon
All hardbacks, dusty, some bookclub editions, otherwise good condition.

I haven't even thought about posting them in my inventory yet, but if any of these titles interest you, I'll post and reserve for you.

>77 GlendaHam: Potentially 200 sci-fi/fantasy books? *COVETS*

Passing on the McCaffrey books for now because I have the first Pern book, but haven't read it yet to see if I like it. But I will definitely keep a lookout for when the rest of those sff books get listed :)

I'll let you know, Macsbrains, but right now, I'm struggling to get some order in such a huge pile. I have begun grouping them by author, after which I hope to put them on shelves in alphabetical order. Since I don't know much about "sff" it is a new learning experience!

I just could NOT let those books go to recycle.. and my elderly neighbor HATES organizations like "Am Vets" "Salvation Army" and other thrift store collectors.. So I got a huge windwall (i.e. "mindboggling"..lol)

> 79

Oh, sff is just bad stuff, you probably don't really want to even put them on your shelves, in case they subvert some of your other books into... well, who knows what!

You should just pass them right along... I think... well, maybe... someone might be able to re-home them for you.

>79 GlendaHam: could be "bad" that's why they are being organized on shelves in my very clean garage (not in my library) BUT.. I tentatively posted six books yesterday.. some that seemed not to be parts of trilogies, etc. and two of them were anthologies, which in other genres are not that popular. By this morning ALL of them had been mooched. So if you are looking for moochpoints, sff may just be the way to go.

81> I think I mooched two of them! LOL :)

yes you did... thanks!!! Now it's time for me to head for the "Packaging" headquarters and get to work.

Glenda, I'll keep an eye on your inventory/your posts here. I'm always on the lookout for yet more SFF books to add to my overflowing shelves, although I have pretty much all of the Pern books, so I'll pass on those.

>84 Quaisior: between packaging, going to post office, and checking in here, I have found several "groups" of books by the following authors:
Anne rice -5
Frederick Pohl - 8
Roger Zelany - 10
Terry Brooks -6
Anne McCaffrey - 6 (as already noted)
Greg Bear - 6
David or David & Leight Eddings - 11
Gene Wolf - 4
Terry Pratchett - 7
Robert Silverberg - 12

If any of these authors interest you I can post the titles here... and believe me when I say "LETS MAKE A DEAL" points are not nearly as important to me as finding these books good homes.

the other 150+ seem to be sort of random, like Theodore Sturgeon & Isaac Isamov, Robert Heinlein ..one or two, there may be more, just haven't found them (yet) in the neat lines I have constructed on tables in my garage...

>85 GlendaHam: Ooh, Terry Pratchett!

#85 Ooh, Gene Wolfe! And any Isaac Asimov's you come across.

>86 chelonianmobile: I think I have pulled ALL the Terry Pratchetts so here goes:
Lord and Ladies paperback
Soul Music paperback
Small Gods paperback
Wyrd Sisters paperback

paperbacks seem to be in pretty good condition. slight discoloration of edges, possibly from dust/age, or improper storage.

Hardbacks: with original dustjackets
the Johnny Maxwell Trilogy (which includes "only You Can Save Mankind" "Johnny and the Dead" and "Johnny and the Bomb"
A Hat full of Sky a little dusty, but doesn't look it has even been read.
Going Postal this book is "new" and has not been read, the sweet curmudgeon who gave me all these books said his wife gave it to him for his birthday the year she passed away and he couldn't bring himself to read it.

If you come across any Frank Herbert Apocalyptic non-dune stuff I will be interested :)

#87 I am not sure I have all the Asimov books collected together yet, but here is what I have so far. All hardbacks with bookjackets in great condition
ASIMOV
The Ugly Boy Asimov & Robert Silverberg

Nightfall also written with Robert Silverberg
appears to be in three parts: Nightfall 1, Nightfall 2, and Daybreak.
Nemesis

GENE WOLFE - all hardbacks with their bookjackets. they look old with some discoloration on book edges, but certainly quite readable. Pages are all okay
Soldier of Arete
Soldier of the Mist
The Urth of the New Sun
Epiphany of the Long Sun which contains Calde of the Long Sun and Exodus from the Long Sun. This one is in the best condition of all. Like new, no discoloration.

#89, so far, the only Frank Herbert book I have found is Dune

That is all I can find in the stores too :P Thank you for looking, I appreciate it :)

90> I would love to have the Nightfall books if Souloftherose doesn't want them!

ok by me, Bella, but you are both my friends, so if you both want it, you'll work it out between you ...
BTW it is ONE book with the three stories.

Well, if she wants it, she gets it! Calling first dibs is sacred, especially when it comes to books! :)

Thanks for the list Glenda, I almost did a happy dance when I saw Pratchett mentioned, then I remembered that I now have *all* of the Discworld paperbacks. Most of the other authors I either already have the books I want or they don't interest me. I guess that's what happens when one has as many books as I do. I'm really happy for everyone else expressing interest because woohoo, more SFF books circulating. :-D

Glenda if Wyrd Sisters is still available I sure would love it!Unless someone else has dibbs on it already that fine.

Glenda - has anyone asked for the Gene Wolfe:
The Urth of the New Sun and
Epiphany of the Long Sun - and would you send all this way to me?
If someone closer want them it may be better cost-wise.

>95 Belladonna1975:, okay let's wait and see what she has to say.
>96 Quaisior: oh, yes, for the next few weeks, I have a feel there is going to be alot of SFF circulating. I am absolutely astounded by the popularity of this genre.

Glenda, if no one took the Gene Wolfe books, I'll take The Urth of the New Sun
and Epiphany of the Long Sun.

*Edit* Lman, you beat me to them! :)

Also, that copy of Frank Herbert's Dune - what does it look like? My own copy is disintegrating in my hands from having being read so much, but I don't want one of the ugly covers :)

Also, if you have anything by C. J. Cherryh or Peter S. Beagle in there, I will be interested.

>98 Lman: Of course Lman, it would be my pleasure to send them to you!

>97 susiesharp: okay Susie, Wyrd Sisters is yours.

I now have a stack of 8 books to post and reserve, more books to sort tonight, and it's getting close to "Glenda's Wine Time" heh heh.

So , with apologies and gratefulness for your kind indulgence, I am "booked" out for today, and I greatly fear making serious mistakes if I press on. So I will post and reserve all requested books tomorrow morning when I am fresh in mind and body!

Oh mac... I feel bad now.

Glenda; please check the postages costs and, if it is ridiculous, send them to macbrains - seriously!
But thank you heaps and no hurry on my account - you may want to lighten your load of new books though. :)

>100 macsbrains: Macsbrains, so sorry, for the moment I find no Peter Beagle but I do have three C.J. Cherryh - hardbacks with intact dustcovers. all have a little dust and some discoloration on the top edge, otherwise very good condition.
The Paladin
Heavy Time
Cyteen

you're so gracious Lman, but I think macsbrains has already declared you the "first requestor"

oh oh, macbrains forgot to tell you about Dune.
since I don't know much about "Dune" I failed to put the entire title in:
Chapterhouse:Dune ISBN 0-399-13027-6 Still has good condition bookjacket, a little dusty but no discoloration of the page edges.

I am guessing there might be more than one book of Dune????

I have two JT Petty “Clemency Pogue” books ready to list:

Clemency Pogue: Fairy Killer
and The Hobgoblin Proxy

Found them on the sale table at a local bookshop. As new.
Anyone want to call dibs?

Thanks so much Gleanda whenever you can get them on there is fine with me !have a nice glass of wine now!:)

105 could we please have the JT Petty books. My sixth grader read that over my shoulder and jumped for joy! my name on BM is stillhappy2006 if it isnt too much to send to me that is.

Glenda, when you are relaxed and ready, I'd like to know about the Roger
Zelazny books, and I will be keeping an eye on all the other titles.

I think you have your work cut out for you with your neighbor's books!

I was going to mention Cherryh (I'm reading my first Cherryh now and really enjoying it) but I'm only looking for paperbacks at this point because I have no room left for hardcovers (plus they hurt my hands).

>107 oswaribakabaka: – Reserved for you. They're a fantastic read. You'll enjoy them as much as your kids.

Glenda, I'll take the Cyteen book, please. In hardcover I bet weighs as much as a small horse!

Chapterhouse: Dune isn't the one that I'm looking for. It's the 6th in the Dune series, the first of which is just called Dune. Mine is still in decent shape because it's not nearly on par with the earlier Dune books.

Glenda,
I'd be intrested in The Masterharper of Pern by Anne McCaffrey. You said the other three in the Pern series is in one novel and I already have two of the three I only need The White Dragon from that book. I'm artemisathene on BM.

Kind of a double post but not completly...

I have several kids and YA books available but not posted. I've just had to clear off my book shelf for books to list to BM because I've added so many books to my collection. I now have no room for all the extra books. I'm starting with kids books because they are usually smaller and easier to turn into deals so I'm hoping they move faster. For books 9-12 and Teen ask me about making a deal I'm looking to move these books and I'm not in need of too many points. I'll work out the shipping and see if I can make you a great offer.

~ Missy

#88: Glenda, I am joining late here but if the 2 Pratchett books A Hat Full of Sky and Going Postal are still available, may I have them please?

#90: And also Asimov's Nemesis. Thanks.

so sorry, gforce, A Hat full of sky and going Postal are already spoken for, but I will post Nemesis for you tomorrow.

ok Macsbrains, I will reserve cyteen for you.

cdnbookworm, I will reserve "The Masterharper of Pern" for you on BM under the name of artemisathene.

That's a lot of books to send out, I'll try to have everything ready for mailing on Monday.

#116: Thanks, Glenda. If you see any Piers Anthony books in the pile, please keep them for me too.

okay will do, but for the moment I haven't seen any Piers Anthony. The sweet old man who keeps giving me his late wife's books dropped off a few more today, maybe in the next "drop=off" there will be some, I'll keep you in mind.

#90 Sorry for replying so late - I picked a bad time to go to sleep!

#93 Happily I already have NIghtfall (but I think it should have gone to Bella anyway as she asked first)

I might have lost track of all the requests but if no-one else has asked for the soldier books by Gene Wolfe I'd love Soldier of the Mist and Soldier of Arete but only if you're ok to send them to the UK. And there's no rush!

I have a copy of Micah by Laurell K. Hamilton
Mass Market Paperback (ISBN: 0-515-14087-2)
It's in almost new condition (never read), but a small corner of the cover is torn off at the bottom of the spine.

These books usually seem to be quite popular, so I thought I'd post it here first to see if anyone wants it. I send worldwide.

I don't read sci fi or fantasy myself, but I am just tickled to read all the happiness happening in this thread.

cdnbookworm, I've sent you a PM.

>121 dadena: me too, dadena, and my elderly neighbor is absolutely estatic. He was sooo worried about his late wife's collection. He actually offered to PAY me to take his books. And now to see how many people love this genre has been an extremely positive experience for me!! I thank you all for your help in learning more about it. I just may pick up one and two and do some reading. I always have an open mind about new reading experiences!!!

I have posted in my inventory and reserved all the requests that have been made so far. I hope I wrote them all down properly as they came pouring in and if I missed anyone or any particular book, please advise.

And people, I put in very detailed condition notes, so if you change your mind and decide you don't want something, no big deal!!

Thanks so much Glenda!You'll find alot of sci-fi and Fantasy fans here!

>120 coralsiren:, kimifly, if Micah hasn't been requested yet, I'd very much like to mooch it!

> 125, I just reserved it for you.

Thank you very much! :)

glendaham, I don't want any of those books, but this whole story is making me happy. I love it when I can send books to new homes where they're appreciated!

Pre-BM
very good used pb
Water For Elephants
978-1-56512-560-5

pet owner here

I am BO on BM

>128 piemouth: WHile I have LOVED sharing all these treasure troves here, the most meaningful one is this: one book my aging friend gave me was a "coffee table type book of cartoons by the Washington Post cartoonist Herb Block. Although old and a little dusty, it was a first edition signed by the cartoonist. Unfortunately, it was not "serious collector" quality, and probably not worth a great deal of money but still very interesting.

I checked it out on bookmooch and found a University in Austria that had it on its wishlist. ( I think this university is one of bookmooch charities). I sent them an e-mail asking if they were interested. and they answered back quickly with a YES YES YES. so I mailed it out this morning. :-)

>129 BONS: I really Loved Water for Elephants I highly recommend it!!

If nobody else has snagged Water for Elephants I would love a copy! :)

Message 130
I loved reading your message, it made me feel happy that a book someone treasured has found a new home thanks to a kind person like you Glenda.

Glenda, I want to jump on the sff requesting train :)

If it hasn't been requested I'd love the 3in1 Dragon Riders of Pern, and would probably take what ever Heinlein you.

If you happen across any additional anthologies I would love those. There a few I read when I was young (yay for dads w/large sff collections), that I can't remember the names of, that I'm trying to find just by reading any older anthology I can find.

I love the Herb Block book story! You can just feel how excited the library is about getting a fairly unique copy of a wishlisted book.

OK for Dragon Riders of Pern it is still available. I'll post it to my inventory and reserve it for you. Condition: like many of my friend's books, a little dusty, bookjacket in very good condition, but book edges are discolored and Mr. Green has a couple of cats. If they are like other cats I have known, they like to sit or sleep on top of book boxes, simply because they CAN.

I have the following Heinlein:
The Door into Summer
Revolt in 2100
The Number of the Beast
Let me know which ones of these you might like to have and I can send everything in same package.

As for anthologies. I'm still learning about SFF, so at this point I just haven't had time to seriously look at each book to make that determination since some might be anthologies of a single author and others of a group of authors.

So please bear with me for a few more days as I get time to seriously look at the remaining books.

In case anyone is looking for these, this is my entire inventory:
Dragons in the Water by Madeleine L'Engle.
The Not-just-anybody Family by Betsy Byars.
Stray Dog by Carol Beach York.

More:
Summer at World's End by Monica Dickens.
The Marvelous Land of Oz (A Sequel to the Wizard of OZ) by L. Frank Baum.
So You Want to Be a Wizard by Diane Duane.

Books may be sent separately (you don't have to wait for the 3kg parcel to be filled, though the sooner it is filled the sooner I can send it. But that's up to you). Overseas please ask an angel to mooch for you (details and inventory here).

Yes to all of those Glenda.
Thanks bunches and I'm certainly in no hurry. Goodness knows I already have a large tbr pile :)

they have been posted and reserved for you willow

Just listed a bunch of good beach reads- take them off my hands (2 points for 3 books!!)

Diana Dempsey Falling Star
Lisa Gardner The Survivors Club
Rachel Gibson Sex, Lies, and Online Dating
Jane Heller Female Intelligence
Alice Hoffman Second Nature
Marina Lewycka A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian
Judi McCoy Match Made In Heaven
Brenda Novak A Family of her Own
Carly Phillips Simply Sinful
Lisa Plumley Reconsidering Riley
Karen Robards vanished
Sarah Strohmeyer The Cinderella Pact
Sarah Webb It Had to Be You

#138 I would love to have A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian , The Survivors Club and Vanished if someone else hasn't already requested them.

I am also glendaham on BM.

thanks!!

Message 138 I would like Second Nature

I am Gerri07 on BM

Thank you.

We're still cleaning out my parents house, so I've added a huge stack of kids books, as well as a few adult novels and comic books. Most of this stuff is in decent condition, but is pretty dusty.

I'm Mareofthesea on BM too and I do send internationally. Next ship date is Friday. All kids books are 2 for 1.

Well, I did it again! I ordered the same book twice -- LibraryThing was supposed to stop me from doing that so often :-(

If anyone wants The Medieval World: An Illustrated Atlas by National Geographic, please let me know.

dkhiggin, I've sent you a PM.

I'm getting ready to post two more to BM:

MOOCHEDCrashing Through: The extraordinary true story of the man who dared to see by Robert Kurson. This copy is pristine/giftable. Paperback MOOCHED

MOOCHEDThe Chicago Way by Michael Harvey. Paperback. very good condition, but the upper corner got caught on the bookshelf, so where is a small wave to the cover and the first couple of pages. Never read. Rest of book very good. MOOCHED

If you catch me before I post them, I'll put them up on reserve for you.

pbadeer... I don't want to mooch them but they both look interesting so I've added them to my to-read list! (like I needed more books there... hehehehehe)

144: pbadeer
I just sent you a mooch request for The Chicago Way - looks like another good series for me; I hope you can send to Australia...
I can look for another to go with it, if you like.

crazybatcow - I'm the same but I still would like to read this one too!

>89 Bcteagirl: Bcteagirl
I've a copy of Hellstrom's Hive I've been meaning to list, in fairly good condition, if you're interested...

I've a copy of the highly wishlisted Suite Fancaise by Irene Nemirovsky available for mooching (ETA: USA only, please). (MOOCHED by GlendaHam - BookMooch Angel)

FYI: This is a trade paperback with pen writing related to BookCrossing inside the front cover and on page1. It also has a black ink stamp from The BookThing on page 1. In addition, there is a red stamp and pen writing related to BookCrossing inside the back cover. The outside of the book is fine. It's a great reading copy!

If you'd like me to post this book to BookMooch and reserve it for you, please send me a *profile message* here on LT. Thanks.

ETA: BookCrossing journal entry

Message 148

I would like Suite Francaise.
I am Gerri07 on BM

Thanks so much

Gerr07, I should have mentioned that I only post within the US. Sorry. I always seem to leave out that piece.

If anyone is interested, I just added all three books in the children's Island Trilogy by Gordon Korman to my inventory.

They are:
Shipwreck
Survival
Escape

Please read the condition notes, they are generally in pretty good condition, but they do have some comments.

These would probably suit a child who was just starting "chapter books".
Mooched

#151 would you reserve "Suite Francaise" for me? I would be very pleased to send it on to Gerri. I have read it already, so it would be a fast "angel" mooch.

I'm not sure how "angel" works, but I reserved the book for you, Glenda. Do I send it to your address when you mooch it?

Message 153 - Wow Glenda what a lovely gesture...Sorry I could not get back to you sooner. I lost my internet service today & am just online now.

you did it EXACTLY right, Squeaky. I saw it 'reserved' for me, I have requested it from you. And now you will send it to ME just as though it were a typical request.

and then when I receive it, i will reserve it for Gerri, and then she will "mooch" it from me and I will send it to her along with any other books I have mooched for her.

Thanks so much for helping us out!! this is terrific.

Hello! I have just listed my first ever book, and I see it's in pretty high demand, so I want to give a heads up to anyone here that Atlas Shrugged is available, in the following condition:

"I already owned a copy of this book, yet when I saw it on the clearance table outside my local bookstore for only $4, I just couldn't leave it there! Although it's brand new, the condition is befitting of a book that sat outdoors on a clearance table, exposed to the elements for who knows how long, probably picked up and thumbed through a few times. The cover is a little grubby looking and slightly worn around the edges. And there is the telltale black slash along the base of the book. It might smell slightly musty, as it's been stored in a box with other books I own, many from thrift and secondhand stores, but not offensively so!"

(Unfortunately, as it's quite the weighty tome, I'm limited to posting with Australia only at this time.)

And like so many times before An Angel Moocher like Glenda will make Gerri a very happy Book Moocher.

Angel Moochers are angels and we would be lost without their kindness & help.

--> 156

Thanks for explaining "Angel" to me, Glenda. Now it makes sense. Since you can "bundle" books for a flat rate, the shipping then becomes more affordable. I'll get the book in the mail to you in the next few days.

For what other countries do you angel? How many books do you usually bundle together? I would imagine that only two books together would be fine for Canada as shipping flat rate is a bit over five dollars.

--> 158

It seems as if "angeling", if done right and well planned, can be a win-win situation for everyone (even the post office!).

>How many books do you usually bundle together?

Last time she sent books to me, there were 4 or 5 in the package :) And Jenn usually manages to squeeze 10 or more in her packages to me. :)

And when sending to Canada, sending a regular paperback not much different than sending domestically in the U.S.

>159 SqueakyChu: As macsbrains, said, Canada for paperbacks is a breeze, sending to UAE, Madagascar, Bulgaria or Israel it can get pretty pricey. So in reference to "how many books" I would have to say that the requestor and I work it out on a 'case by case' situation.

>For what other countries do you angel?

Answer: so many I have lost count. I know I have sent books to countries on every continent.

Although I love passing books on to people in other countries, my big love is being able to give books to libraries throughout the world. I have supplied libraries in Madagascar, the Philippines, Austria, and India as well as the US. We have a number of libraries that are Bookmooch charities, so extra points can be donated to them so they can get the books they need too!!!

I'm having a 2 for 1 sale on all of the children's books in my inventory. All are in good shape and were gently used by me when I was a daycare teacher. Some of them have a bookplate stamp.

My BM account is set to "ask me first" but just go ahead and mooch them if there are any you want!

what a great list of kids books, weelass. makes me wish i had some young grandchildren... ( mine are all H.S. and college)

I've been trying to move them for a while now but so far have only had a couple of bites. I'm getting short on shelf space for all of my paperbacks. I'm not sure if that means I need a bigger house or less books!!...definitely a bigger house...heh!!

I'd take them all, but I've put myself on a children's book diet for right now. Unless it's on DD's recommended reading lists, I'm not mooching it. I've got far too many early readers and picture books in the house right now!

FYI: Manga fans

I think this BMer has some manga available

http://bookmooch.com/m/inventory/chocholada

My Sister's Keeper - Jodi Picoult
(No takers: offer withdrawn)

If you're interested in it, please message me, and I will list it on BM with a reserve for you.

This is a trade paperback with a Bookcrossing label taped inside the front cover. Here is its Bookcrossing journal entry.

Anyone have Patricia Cornwell they want to move? I mooched Postmortem and From Potter's Field from Belladona and own Cause of Death, but Im looking for all others. Happy to take them off your hands and not mooch one per moocher for each book :-)

170 - let me check - I think I picked one up at the school auction I went to.

170: I have Point of Origin in Hardcover, if you wish. I'm in Canada.

One last offer to members here for this list of books before I list them on BM and let others have at them:

http://www.librarything.com/topic/92165#2018531

Also adding one more book to the list:

In the Hand of the Goddess by Tamora Pierce (ISBN 0-679-80111-1)
USED BOOK: Some yellowing, some shelf wear, some spinal creasing and the front cover is bent slightly enough that the cover comes up when flat on the desk.

#170 - skinglist,

I have a bunch on my TBR. Black Notice, Blow Fly, The Body Farm, Body of Evidence, Cruel and Unusual, Hornet's Nest, Isle of Dogs, Portrait of a Killer, Predator, Southern Cross, & Trace.

Don't know how soon you need them... I haven't read them yet.

I’m prepping for a drop-off at my local charity bookshop but I weeded out some highly wishlisted books and two ARCs from the stacks. All of the books are paperbacks in like-new condition unless noted. Unfortunately, I can only afford to ship to the US and Canada at the moment, but would be more than happy to hold for an angel mooch.

Highly Wishlisted:
The Curious Incident Of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon
I’d Tell You I Love You But Then I’d have To Kill You by Ally Carter
Just Listen by Sarah Dessen
13 Little Blue Envelopes by Maureen Johnson
Mirror, Mirror by Gregory Maguire - (black mark on bottom edge)

Advanced Reader Copies:
Truly Madly by Heather Webber
The Girl Who Chased The Moon by Sarah Addison Allen

> 175

I'd love to mooch Mirror, Mirror, if you'd be willing to send it to Canada.

#176: Geophile, It's all yours.

172: thanks. Not going to ask you to spend postage on a hardcover to the US that is widely available but I appreciate it.

174: no timeline. I'm trying to help the sr. center where my aunt is involved. I've never hunted Cornwell for her because she doesn't read, but I met one of the other women when I was up there this weekend and she dove into a box I'd brought with me.

Plus in the process I discovered Cornwell and she's pretty good :-)

Thanks all

#175 I would like to mooch The Curious Incident from you. I am Bo on BM...(and thank you)

#175 f_ing_kangaroo - I'd truly love to have Truly Madly. I'm also karenmarie on BookMooch.

I'd like to mooch your ARC of The Girl Who Chased the Moon please. I'll PM you.

#175 If they're still available, I'd love to mooch Just Listen and 13 Little Blue Envelopes. I'm canuck_jenni on BM. Thanks!

> 175 f_ing_kangaroo I've sent you a pm.

And they're all gone! Thanks everybody! I hope you enjoy them. I'll be sending them all out in a day or two.

don't know if there is any interest in these, only one seems to be wishlisted, but cleaning my sons room and he needs bookshelf space so these have to go

Pokemon Time Out for Torchic
Pokemon The Haunted Gym
Pokemon Tree's a Crowd
Pokemon Get Well Pikachu

Scholastic Hardbacks in great condition

I have a moderately well loved paperback copy of Octavia E. Butler's Dawn.
A little creasing on the back cover, front cover and the first couple of pages curl outwards (like the cover was rolled at the halfway pint, if that makes any sense), and a stamp from one of the local used bookstores on the first 'praise for' page.

It's some amazing sci-fi. I had to go out and buy the 3in1 trilogy :)

I have several books to give:

Books by
Dave Barry
Erma Bombeck
The Dark Queen trilogy by Susan Caroll
Dilbert books
A P.G. Wodehouse book (a collection of two Jeeveses, I believe)

Prague by Arthur Phillips
The Hummingbird's Daughter
A northern Light without dj
Lake Woebegon Days
The Bronze Horseman
All are from a non-smoking, cat-owned household.

I'd be interested in the Wodehouses. :-)

@202. Hi. I'd like to have Dawn if it's still available. I'm Kaseya on BM.

Thanks, Kasey

I have some magazines I'd like to unload, but I didn't want to post them if there wasn't interest. Would anyone be interested in mooching copies of these magazines:
- Archaeology
- National Geographic
- Smithsonian
- Biblical Archaeology

Will list specific issues if there's interest :)

@206
I might be interested in your Archaeology magazines. How old are they?

>206 k00kaburra: Biblical Archaeology sounds interesting.

I agree with dadena.

My former Prof just released a publishing in a biblical mag of some sort. If there is a paper by Tony Chartrand-Burke I'd love to have that particular copy if dadena is okay with my requesting it.
I'm artemisathene on BM.

Missy, if the article is there it is all yours. :-) I hope you find it.

>205 KAzevedo:
It's reserved for you Kasey. I hope you enjoy it :)

Thanks willowbean. I'm sure I will. Kasey
