Random gifts — 3 years ago

I find that occassionally I am reading a book and I think XXX would like this. When that happens I go and buy the book online and send it to XXX. It doesn’t matter whether they know it is from me, just that they get it. The latest book I added to this list “boy meets girl” I sent to two people and I hope they enjoy it. Does anyone else do this?

On Iphis, one loved it the other found it a bit outside their comfort zone.

Slow books — 5 years ago

I notice I am semi stalled on the list right now. The reason for this is that I am down to the books I do not currently own. These were suggested to me as “should read”, and I will when either I happen across a copy or someone gives me one.
