I bought 2 books I've been wanting for a long time (waiting for them to be digitized but I don't think that'll be happening in a hurry ), and threw in a third to get the discount. I love that they do free internat'l shipping; I'm always on the look-out for sites like those.

Great! I know, I do the same thing. It seems usually the books I want to read that are in a series never have the first few in ebooks and I like to read them in order.

They just started doing the international free shipping last year.

I just got the cutest email, from Better World Books, confirming shipment of my order:

Hello [my name],

(Your book(s) asked to write you a personal note - it seemed unusual, but who are we to say no?)

Holy canasta! It's me... it's me! I can't believe it is actually me! You could have picked any of over 2 million books but you picked me! I've got to get packed! How is the weather where you live? Will I need a dust jacket? I can't believe I'm leaving Mishawaka, Indiana already - the friendly people, the Hummer plant, the Linebacker Lounge - so many memories. I don't have much time to say goodbye to everyone, but it's time to see the world!

I can't wait to meet you! You sound like such a well read person. Although, I have to say, it sure has taken you a while! I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but how would you like to spend five months sandwiched between Jane Eyre (drama queen) and Fundamentals of Thermodynamics (pyromaniac)? At least Jane was an upgrade from that stupid book on brewing beer. How many times did the ol' brewmaster have one too many and topple off our shelf at 2am?

I know the trip to meet you will be long and fraught with peril, but after the close calls I've had, I'm ready for anything (besides, some of my best friends are suspense novels). Just five months ago, I thought I was a goner. My owner was moving and couldn't take me with her. I was sure I was landfill bait until I ended up in a Better World Books book drive bin. Thanks to your socially conscious book shopping, I've found a new home. Even better, your book buying dollars are helping kids read from Brazil to Botswana.

But hey, enough about me, I've been asked to brief you on a few things:

[regular stuff about the shipping address, the shipper, blah blah]

Eagerly awaiting our meeting,

[the names of the books I ordered]

Isn't that sweet? It certainly is the nicest shipping confirmation I ever received
