I just saw a version of Snow White I wanted to find, by Fiona French, Snow White in New York. The illustrations look very Art Deco.

Chari, that is awful about your library system. I'm complaining here because it's .25 to reserve books.

You have a list? Huh. Should've thought of that. I'd just been posting as fast as I could whatever popped into my head. 
Still waiting for any B's I can get hold of ...

B's are hard to come by. I'd like a P or an M, too!
My list is nothing formal. I just put the title in an email draft when it pops in my head. I need to make that head space available for other things.
