Since my last post on the much loved Books & Bottles party some folks have been asking about the actual books which were shared and exchanged with each other. I thought this was a great question and so I have decided to publish the list here.
Below are the books which guests brought because they have significant meaning for them or wanted to share with someone. This is a special and unique collection of titles, you'll likely not see any theme emerge in this list. Rather, this list represents the collective of a great group of people. May you find something great in it for you!
Enjoy!!
