I just picked this up at the post office a few minutes ago! I look forward to going through it tonight when I get home and making selections/replacements.

I adore the "I can't even drive straight" bumper sticker you included; that was referenced in a book I just finished last week!

I'll PM Kanaye44 for an address right now. Thanks for including me!

The box arrived today, and looks very tempting! (That is, the contents do; the box itself may need replacing {grin}.) I've PMed oldbroad for an address, and hope to get the box moving in a few days.

OK! After much deliberation, I'm taking:

Trans-Sister Radio
Ai No Kusabi The Space Between
A Scarecrow's Bible
Mississippi Sissy
Rainbow Boys
Gay Book of Lists
Pleasures of the Flesh

[I noticed that kanaye44 had listed Men Who Love Men, but I didn't find it in the box; instead, I found Mysterious Skin; a last-minute substitution?]

I'm putting in:

Gerard & Jacques 1
A History of Barbed Wire
Songs of Sappho
Vermilion
The Larton Chronicles
Upon a Midnight Clear
The Tragedy of Today's Gays
The Back Passage
Side by Side: Journal of a Smalltown Boy

(I seem to be following the trend of putting in more books than I'm taking {grin}. But some of mine are pretty slim, and some of the ones I took were pretty hefty, so I don't think the box will be any heavier!)

Update: the box went out on Monday, Aug. 17th. Delivery confirmation: 03082040000083785741
