Plan to put on a table outside.
Last weekend, I was sick, laying in bed, thinking I was going to die of boredom (I had nothing new to read), and lo and behold, I noticed someone was about to release a book I wanted to read, and not too far away! I dragged my sick self out of bed, threw on some clothes, and attempted to make myself presentable (it didn't work to well though). Got in the car, and drove to the release site. I saw a woman and a little girl enjoying their lunch with the books stacked on their table. My feverish mind ran through my options, I could walk over, grab the books and run...no, bad idea..I could walk over, ask if they were reading the books in question, and pass along my horrible cold in exchange! No, another bad idea. So, I sat in my car and lurked until they got up and walked away - then ran (okay walked really fast) over to the table they just left. NO BOOKS!! Dejected, I started coughing and upsetting the other diners, so I started to walk away - and what did I see? The books had been set on another table!! YAY!! I swiped them and ran.
Thanks for the books, I thoroughly enjoyed them!
