You just tell me how to grab them and I will!

Hi :) Someone's already spoken for "whatever's left" (for a book sale), were there any ones in particular you wanted?

I can be anywhere near the UMass campus :)

if there's a chance of getting the anita blake books that you have? AKA circus of the damned, the killing dance, laughing corpse, bloody bones and guilty pleasures.

I have a huge chunk of time between noon and two-thirty. I usually go to the hatch and then the library. Just let me know where you'll be tomorrow and if those are still available. :D

Sure, though I think there's a few more Anita Blake books in there than that; I think eight or so of them actually are (I really can't stand the Merry Gentry books). Let me know when's good, I'll be on campus (probably in the campus center) until about 2.

Can you meet me @the parking garage door facing the campus center at 12:30? I ended up with too many books to schlep :)

sounds good.
see you there!

[identity profile] nikitsuki.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
hey, i went to the parking garage door at 12:30 near the campus center and waited for about a half hour... i still want the anita blake novels so if you still have them i could get them tomorrow or something. if not, then it's fine.

[identity profile] tisiphone.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey! I still have them, I didn't see you there so I left. Are you still on campus? I'm hanging out in the campus center waiting for someone else to show :)

[identity profile] nikitsuki.livejournal.com 2008-11-08 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
i live off campus but i'll probably be on campus tomorrow (saturday) morning to go to the gym. if you want to meet on campus somewhere let me know. if tomorrow isn't good then we could meet up next week. :P

You should donate any leftover SciFi/Fantasy to UMSFS (UMass Science Fiction Society). We're willing to accept donated books all the time.

I'd be happy to, only I asked and was informed that you haven't got space :) That was my first thought, seeing as they're mostly science fiction.

[identity profile] hottippic.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 07:12 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, last I'd known they were taking books, but I haven't been there in a while.

[identity profile] berrystained910.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
If you donate the rest to the Sci Fi society, it's fine :)
I really would like to have the Dirk Gently's Holistic what not and the The Faded Sun trilogy please :)

Campus center you say? I'll attack anyone with a mass of books.

:) Can you meet me at the parking garage door facing the campus center at 12:30? Too many books to schlep!

[identity profile] berrystained910.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Understandable! Will do :)

Thanks again!

[identity profile] berrystained910.livejournal.com 2008-11-07 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
AH I also want 999: 29 original tales of horror and suspense, please!

I'll stop going over the list now, promise.
