love the fate of buying books. and also, for real, the international covers you guys get are SO much better than our covers, it's not fair.

I hear your pain. I thought it easier to write a blog post as a reply because, you know, I like to write lots and lots and lots . . .

Totally accept a blog post response - but just wanted to let you know Liberation Day is 20 and change for paperback and 28 for hardcover. Seems like books everywhere are costing several limbs

I was relying on Google. I remember when I was in California in 2014 how everything seemed so much cheaper once you adjusted for the exchange. But yeah, books aren’t cheap anymore.

Dick Fight Island is Victoria’s of course. Maybe that deserves a blog response too? I can ask her for tomorrow. But yeah, bizarre . . .

Just to say, I enjoyed the recent blog post & really appreciate the shout-out. Can definitely relate to the experience of people acting weird about reading (someone shouted "reader" at me once, which I guess they thought was an insult?). And yeah, it's plain old Mike. I slept in the day they handed out the pseudonyms/spy names :/

Hi, I read through your website. Your comments about annotating books gave me an idea for something to write in my blog tomorrow. Interested to see what you do with your site. And thanks for your interest!

Hey, thanks for taking the time to look through the site, and I'm chuffed that that post inspired you. I'm a big fan of what you guys have put together with the reading project, and will definitely be keeping an eye out for your next blog post!
