Brilliant! I can’t wait to sign up. The nearest bookstore is in Macroom, a 25-minute drive away. (And it’s not exactly Waterstones.) I’ve been mostly using the library and then going on book buying binges when I go up to Dublin.

Hmm, thanks for the tip Laurie, I may just have to give that a go. It’s funny I never thought of it since I’ve bought stuff from Amazon that way.

hey, you can also sell books on amazon.com… you don’t make a LOT of money that way, but you can make a little.

i did it compulsively for about three months (which is as long as most of my compulsions last) and i made about $100.

i know they allow it internationally, because i’ve bought books from the UK and ireland. just go to their website, call up the title of a book you own and would like to sell, and then click on the little box that says “have this book and want to sell it?”

it’s easy.

Mary, if you do join up you’ll have to let me know so I can check out your books! I’m really enjoying it so far. I’ve already sent 3 books to all corners of the globe and have 3 on their way to me.

Hi Claire,
I am like you, from the attic to the downstairs loo my home groans with books. I have often wished there were book sharing clubs as well as book clubs. I could break the bank with what I spend at times.

Will look into the site and see how things go, thanks for the head’s up!

Hi Flee!

I know what you mean…I would rather go through any pain or illness rather than watch Eve in pain.

Hope you guys are enjoying the Arkansas sunshine!

Hey Claire…….just got caught up on your posts. I want to just say that I felt really bad for you and for Eve going thru all of that mess! I’ve learned, through experience, that you have to be aggressive, at least you do here…especially in hospitals. My son, Asher, was hospitalized for a week a few years ago with an asthma attack. It was horrible watching him suffer like he did. I hope Eve is finally back on her feet. Love your pictures too! Hope you are enjoying your summer.

Love you much Claire…

Hi Cathy, yes I signed up to BookCrossing awhile ago but so far haven’t released any books. I think the chances of me finding one where I’m living is just too remote but I love the idea of it.
