Anyone else want to clear their shelves?

Does it have to be a swap, popsy? I only ask because I don't have any books here --- they're all at home in the States. I would be willing to pay for books, though.... [hopeful emoticon]

Here's my almost non-existant list, serves me right for having a clearout recently!

The Tesseract by Alex Garland, bought secondhand too, read a few times but in clean and reasonable condition.

Lucky by Alice Sebold (am reading this at the moment so will need a few days to finish it), secondhand as well, edges of the pages slightly yellowed but it feels like I am the first person to actually read it, clean and good condition.

I dont mind 'non-swapping' if there is something you would like!
