These are books that I’m disposing off. I really hate parting with my books, but I need the space in my house, and I don’t want to throw them away.
Just leave a note on the comments, letting me know which book you want and your email address (I suggest you put it as to prevent spam on your account) so can discuss the pick-up or delivery details. For pick-up, I can meet you in any of the LRT 2 stations. If you choose to have the book delivered, I’ll have to add the price of delivery to the total cost. I’ll be using 2GO, and you make check their prices at their website (look for the Quickpack document option)
I’ll also be adding books to this list as I clean up my place, so keep coming back for updates!

Summary: Faris Nallaneen, duchess of Galazon, has been packed away to finishing school at Greenlaw College by her usurping uncle Brinker.

Faris vacillates between periods of immersing herself in her studies and ignoring her schoolwork in favor of trashy three-volume novels. Christina Schulman.

Title: Hand Me Down
Author: Lee Nichols
ISBN: 0-733-56284-1
Publisher: Red Dress Ink
Summary: Anne Olsen has never found it easy to be the youngest of three sisters. Her eldest sister, Charlotte, is a former swimsuit model with a rich husband and three perfect children. Her middle sister, Emily, is an academic who published a revolutionary dissertation on pornography and feminism. Anne has never quite found what she wants to do, and has drifted from retail jobs to secretarial positions. At 29, she's working for a realty company and dating the owner, Rip Parsons. Usually unable to commit, Anne is making a genuine effort to give her relationship with Rip a chance, despite her crush on Charlotte's high-school boyfriend, Ian, who has recently come back into her life. But it's Ian, not Rip, who is inspiring Anne to make something of herself and actually find something--anything--she feels passionate about. Nichols' second novel is a delightful tale about a young woman coming into her own and finding love in the process.Kristine Huntley, Copyright © American Library Association.
