Many of them seem to be out of left field!<br />In Canada I order from Amazon.ca - I can order through Amazon.com if I am sending something to the US - I can't get an order sent to me. However, I can order from Amazon UK and since you often get books ahead of us I do sometimes order from the UK.<br />I really want to order some books from Persephone books - visiting them is on my list when next I can travel to London.Margie from Torontohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103835021764804099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787951981229151015.post-47485907291889666602020-05-14T14:32:31.897+01:002020-05-14T14:32:31.897+01:00Some of those look pretty decent.

However lately when I'm looking at print books it always recommends Kindle books to me which rarely relate to the one I'm looking at. Sigh. I think they are trying to encourage digital books in this time so they don't have to deliver (which I understand) but please let me look!
