Great. E-mail me your e-mail address (my address is mail@christophertusa.com), and I'll send you the download link for the e-book. I really don't want to post it publicly.
Thanks,

shit. double post. and no delete button! i feel like an idiot.
after looking back on it, i demoted cold mountain from my 'favorites.' i still really enjoyed it and stand by it as a good book. but i totally get it if you are struggling to get into it. mostly, i just want your opinion on how the whole thing ends.

haha i just saw your note now. Apparently I'm not too observant. Thanks for the books! I'm pumped to read all of them. I am starting Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim today!
yay! so glad you loved the help. i cant wait to read it :) also just finished love walked in, excited to loan it to you! see you SOON
SUP THIS SITE IS SO COOL i looked through your shelf and found so many books that i had forgotten about, e.g. The Face on the Milk Carton TOTALLY FORGOT about that one
I'd say about 5 pages into it I was fully prepared to finish the entire trilogy. I just finished Brave New World which I thought was going to be loosely the same idea (I LOVE scary what-happens-in-the-future type books like 1984, handmaids tail, Fahrenheit 451) but it just really really disappointed me. Hunger games has made up for it completely.
see you very very soon
yay!!! thanks alice. definitely won't forget. wish i could get you girl who kicked hornets nest but i was borrowing it from my boss. i can lend you cold mountain though! :)
oh! don't! i have izzys copy i am in the middle of it! haha thats so funny right before I read your note I changed my status on that book from plan to read to now reading
isnt the end of girl who played with fire ridiculous?! can order the 3rd book from the uk, i think it comes out in america in may, but its impossible to wait that long!!
Defs reading 'The Hunger Games' next, I love this site!
