This box arrived today (much to the bemusement of my work colleagues who are used to me receiving bookboxes but not this size or shape!). What a brilliant collection. I don't know where to start to choose what to take. I shall have fun sorting my way through this box of delights. More audio bookboxes please! This is great!
OK, after a delay for holidays for me and jenatleisure, this box should be moving on again this week. I've had to get a bigger box, since I'm putting in American audiobooks which come in different shaped packaging from ours and wouldn't fit in the previous box. This now means I'm adding a few books to fill the gaps. Hope this doesn't offend anyone!
Anyway, I have taken out:
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte
The Beach by Alex Garland
Beyond Recall by Robert Goddard
Death du Jour by Kathy Reichs
The Tesseract by Alex Garland
and have put in:
Silent Treatment by Michael Palmer
The Hundred Secret Senses by Amy Tan
Blindsighted by Karin Slaughter
Eden Close by Anita Shreve
One False Move by Harlan Coben
and some other bits and pieces

Passed back to Sunlightbub at the Chester meet today.
The bookbox was passed over in person by CelticStar & OddBallDave today at the Chester Meetup..It has grown considerably and I almost had to persuade Celticstar take my little girl home with her so I could use the pushchair as a wheelbarrow.
Thanks to everyone for particpating. I hope you all got something you've enjoyed and I now have lots of goodies to listen to when I'm driving around for work.
Hugs all round xxx
