i'm moving out in a few weeks and have some. letting friends chose which ones they would like first but you are welcome to the rest of them. can't vouch for the quality as many were brought over to me by people who picked random things.

if you are looking for another source, try hu hu antiques on wuzhong road. read somewhere that they have recently moved (perhaps i read that on the moon river diner menu)... they have paperbacks for rmb10 each, all proceeds go to charity.

just pm me in a few weeks (i'd say 2) to remind me and we can sort out picking them up. should have mentioned that when i said quality, i didn't mean the quality of the actual book, rather the quality of the writing.

Thank you Nettyli. It was so nice to meet you today. You are such a elegant lady... I regretted that I didn't buy the books you recommended... Will buy next time if you still have them at that time..

Myellen, early birds get the worm.... Maybe after I finish reading, you can have them.. :D
