When I read books like that I bend the cover and damage the spine as little as possible. You can be a true reader and have nice-looking things.

about to finish a gun for sale

godfather was good, and exciting. thought the movie was terrible

dr. no is fun

the power and the glory is classic graham greene, it's probably my favorite of his catholic novels. its also full of little tabs, so if thats going to bother you, skip this one

just finished a scanner darkly, its also pretty good. I've felt it much more accessible than some of pkd's other works, so if you're new to dick, this might be a good entry. i got the same feeling i did from finishing ubik - wishing i hadn't read it. i liked it but for the few days after finishing the book, i always feel despondent, lonely, and worried

death in the andes i had never read anything by the guy before and didnt know what to expect, but i thought it was very engaging. i feel its also one of the books you finish and and for the following week, new themes and meanings keep popping into your head

i thought they were all worth reading, but i like most everything i read, for some reason. you guys should all read fante's "ask the dust" if you haven't already. its pretty good and ive been thinking about it while lately

i attempt to keep my paperback in immaculate condition too.
this isn't only to soothe my OCD tendencies, it's also for the plain and simple fact that paperbacks are fragile and have a limited lifespan if you don't treat them well.
you batter my book, you banned from borrowing.

Ah, thanks dear friend for the precision ! I hadn't quite noticed it before writing my first post, something in the syntax of his explanative sentence, made me think he meant for me to write my email, and that he would later contact me. I'm not a native english speaker :)

if you do, make sure to tell people at post office that it is just books inside, and you can get the "media mail" 4th rate, which is usually cheaper but takes a bit longer. doesnt work for international mail though
