Links for Tuesday (heads up for book lovers)

[eldritchhobbit]

I thought some of my book-loving friends might find this site of interest: Bookins finds your used books new homes and new readers, and you get the books you want in exchange.

Neil Walsh has a new "Overlooked or Overhyped?" review up at SFSite. This time he takes on works by Samuel Delany and Richard Bowes.

And here's a fascinating and troubling story in the news:
* "Grandson of Geronimo Asks Secret Society at Yale to Return Warrior's Bones" from The Chronicle of Higher Education
* "Geronimo's Heir Seeks Legend's Remains From Yale" from CBS


“If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.”
- Oscar Wilde

Thanks for the Bookins lead - I've never heard of that one. :-)

You're most welcome! I've put a few books up there, and it seemed very easy to use; we'll see how it goes. I did find a book I wanted, and it's en route to me now. I noticed that you can direct link entries to LibraryThing from the site, which seems like a nice bonus.

That was going to be my first question when I took a moment to investigate... That would same me some time and provide tracking.
