I don't know if I have done this or not yet, but I've been meaning to awhile. For my reference, and your interest if you're interested in these types of things. Comment on any books you would recommend as well. Those bolded are books I physically possess, the rest I just longingly want. Those italicized are collections of poetry. Haha.

LETTERS TO A YOUNG POET!!! RILKE PWNS! If you really, really want, I can mail it to you under the condition that you will mail it back to me when you're done. I had this one copy of it once and this guy borrowed it and never got it back so 2 years later I bought another copy. Man.

Also, The Scarlet Letter!!!

Hahah I will quite possibly, very much take you up on that offer. First, I'm going to go through all the books I physically have, and if by that time, I have no books to replenish it (and I haven't gotten any books Christmas-time which is like 85% possible because I have a family who thinks I am obsessed with clothing and never buys me literature on a whim), yesssss. Have you marked it up at all?

[break_the_stars]

I actually want to read some Rumi and Hafiz - a friend of mine shared some poems of theirs with me and I loved them. I really want to get my hands on bookx by them. And Ted Kooser is a wonderful poet! :)
