Does your public library lack books you think it should have? Go in and have a talk with the librarians about ordering them - maybe it will work for you, too. (I've already started a list of books I'm going to recommend this year.)
Update 0904 30 Jan: Moved A La Carte from the "not purchased" to the "purchased" list. Ten for thirteen!
Update 0910 4 Feb: Forgot to include The Dust of 100 Dogs when I first wrote this post. (How, I don't know - it was the one I was most interested in reading.) Eleven for fourteen!

This is a great idea. I guess i always assumed my library people wouldn't listen to me. But I will give it a try.
I've just stumbled across this blog about 5 weeks late, but a hearty thank you is in order. Thank you! I hope you enjoy the book.
