Big huge book give-away.

[veek.livejournal.com]

I have books to give away. I want to get them out of my house as soon as possible. Have at the list, first come first serve, I'll be happy to leave the books on my porch clearly labeled. I live at 35 Kidder Ave, corner of Powderhouse Terrace, a purple house that's a 5-7-minute walk from the T.

I'll be going out to run errands around noon to 1pm, but otherwise will be checking for replies regularly and updating as situation warrants. Once I've replied to your comment, you can assume that the books are available for you to pick up on the porch.

(ETA 7:15pm: I'm editing the list down to just the books that haven't been taken, for ease of reading.)

Sorry, I might have misspelled something (or multiple somethings), and I know I'm missing some accents in there, but it's a long list, you know? Also, apologies in advance – there may be a couple of crossed signals somewhere, so if you don't get the book you thought was available, I'm genuinely sorry. Trying to keep it all as straight as possible.
