Yes. I distrust corporations on principle, but when you have to, you have to. Yesterday I addressed readers to an Amazon-baiting cartoon - just because I found it excruciatingly funny. Today I got the last of a lot of six rare books I had ordered from Amazon two or three weeks ago, and which I did not expect until April. All the books have been delivered in better than expected condition, well ahead of time, to my complete satisfaction. A corporation that does exactly what it was asked to do. Of course the six books cost me a small fortune, but I don't regret it in the least. So, no, I don't really believe that Amazon are the kind of people who leave horse heads in your bed.

1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicize those you intend to read.
3) Underline the books you LOVE.
4) Strike out the books you have no intention of ever reading, or were forced to read at school and hated.NB: since I do not know how to strikethrough a piece of text, I will just write NO WAY alongside.
5) Reprint this list in your own LJ
