Books for you!

[seborn]

allonymist and I have books! allonymist and I have too many books to reasonably fit in our apartment and, rather than unreasonably fit them, want to pass them on to you. Yes, you. Let us know what you want, and we'll set it aside for you. Or have trials of skill, luck, or chronology to determine who gets what.

Here is the list of books we'd like to give you. You can
