Ok, everyone; it's a bit overdue, sorry, but here's a first (big) batch of books I'd like to send to new homes. Contact me (via the contact link or by leaving a comment on here, which I won't post to the web) to let me know what books you might be interested in. There are more books yet to come, and I'll worry about sorting and pricing them later. (If everyone expresses an interest in some very narrow subset of books, and no one is the least bit interested in the huge majority, then spending a ton of time tidying things up is more or less pointless.)

Here's what I've got so far:
