    And most possibly is going to be for a few months still ... so many classics in the year to come ... though my English teachers might like the change in speaking I might adopt

    Shiny! I've read this--huzzah--I've not participated at all in 'book club' because I've had absolutely no time for recreational reading lately. The Midterms Monster rears its ugly heads. De Lint is great (imho), especially his short stories.

    If you believe even a half of this post, you are severely mistaken.

    I can't find this one in either of the used book stores, and I can't afford a new one, and I can't check it out of the library because I need proof of residency to get a library card here and I don't know how to do that. ... Waahh... *sniff*
    If you had to live with this you'd rather lie than fall.

    I can help I can help!!!!!
    Proof of residency is somthing that is verified by somthing offical so A bank statment, bill, drivers liscence.

    In my library we accept anything that has name and address on it but is not handwritten. and has been through the post or somthing unfakable like a payslip/bank statment.
    err bank cards dont count
