Book Depository's prices really do vary a lot. If catch books at least a month before publication, and preorder them, you'll find some really great deals.Sarah Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13340312953393474963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19307003.post-7616266361862586072009-09-02T15:29:32.259-05:002009-09-02T15:29:32.259-05:00WOW!

I'd be curious to see the other nominees if only to see what HF blogs I might be missing out on.<br /><br />My local public library doesn't have much HF either, but they're very small and have had ongoing financial problems. The university library where I work acquires a fair bit.
