Fallen hard for this series this summer, and desperately need the fluffy-reading-distraction. Been a bad summer for me. I don't have much in the way of credits, but I have a huge bookshelf, and I'm willing to do a 2 for 1 deal (two from my bookshelf for one of your Australians). I'm halfway through the fifth book, so need that next one pretty quick! 

Please, save me from reality, just a little bit! I just lost my beloved cat to cancer, and falling asleep is hard without her special purr. I need to read myself to sleep just a little longer....

 

Edit: Please ignore this offer - I just saw in the rules-n-regs that this isn't allowed unless I'm a Boxer. If there's a mod, feel free to remove this post entirely. I apologize profusely!
