for several years now, Australian booksellers Angus & Robertson have done a public survey to determine Australia's Top 100 Books

their 2007 list is displayed at:
http://www.angusrobertson.com.au/products/top100.asp

mostly comprising the usual suspects (lots of Harry Potter at the top) there are some books there which mightn't appear on similar lists outside Australia, so I thought an International Relay based on this list might be of interest.

I'll kick things off with #78

The Bride Stripped Bare by Anonymous

this is a heavy-ish paperback (420 grams) so I'll be sending it by sloooow sea-mail if it goes international.

Ok ok if I must! sigh! :wink:

I will take Bride Stripped Bare off your hands freelunch and offer up No 59 Animal Farm.

I'll accept "Animal Farm" and offer up "The Hobbit" - http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/2871875

Oops, I don't have anything else on this list :(

I guess it's either "The Hobbit" again or something of your choosing from My Availables. Sorry!

Okay, reviving relay (again) - #7 "Memoirs of a Geisha" - http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/5182215

Refreshing again - I've now got #22 The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini (TBR)

I'd like The Kite Runner please, and I'll offer # 28 The Time Traveler's Wife in its place.

or how about #23 The Alchemist by Paul Coelho? (TBR and it will be a few weeks before can read and send it)

previous offer still available.
