As I mentioned in my last post I’m in the process of getting ready for the new year and starting with a clean slate.  As part of that process, I’m cleaning and de-cluttering a bit.  I went through my bookshelf and want to thin it out a bit.  I have the following books I’m offering up for sale.  If you’re interested in buying any of these books or have questions about any of them, e-mail me (mtkatiecakes at yahoo dot com).  I’ll send all books via USPS media mail, prices of each book are listed next to the book, shipping will be figured once I have the zip code to figure actual cost.

It should be noted that all of these books were purchased used and all show some sort of wear though all are in good condition, unless otherwise noted below.
