When I looked out of the window and spyed the lovely Amber-moon struggling up the path weighed down by a great parcel I thought 'aye aye, it must be a book box!' And it was. So having wrestled the dog off her feet, relieved her of the box and peeked in, it looks to me as if there are plenty of goodies to be perusing, so I'll get on with it.
Thanks!

OK, so I have taken out:
Darkening Echoes - Carol Smith
Dead Lagoon - Michael Dibdin
Dead Simple - Peter James
The Echo - Minette Walters

Now I have to find at least 6 books to put back in the box, which shouldn't be a problem but I did happen to mass wild release several books that would have been ideal for this just yesterday! I will collect some more together and update the journal entry with what I am putting in before passing it on to caffcaff.

I have put in:

I was rather bewildered to see this box in the kitchen this morning! Housemate explained that he happened to be up at just the time that the postman called (quite unusual).

Book box has safely arrived back in Munich. Thank you all - you were brilliant participants, and I feel like it's Christmas: I have a whole box full of books I've never read but with authors I adore (Marsh, Walters ...). A huge THANK YOU to all that participated.
Once I'm done the box will go on to it's final destination in Germany.
