List action- and a giveaway

As per number 27 on the list, these are off to the op shop. I love them but don't need to hang on to them. I have a wonderful local library if I need to access them. These books are better for my mental health if they are not cluttering up my bookshelf. And, I don't feel too silly saying that because lots of people said they 'got' my list 
and this is off to one of you, if you are interested-
It was great- and slightly scary, funny but helpful. I have read it and am ready to pass it on. 
Leave a comment if you want it and I will do a random number thingamy to chose a winner on Sunday 16th. This one is just for people living in Australia- besides anything else, if does contain daggy Australian references! I think Corinne Grant is around my age (I am 38) because I understood and laughed and cringed at her fashion references and many other experiences (she's a northern Victorian girl who took off to Melbourne as well- except I came back!).

  5. Ahem *climbing out of a wardrobe filled with hoarded stuff*, you ahh, might want to count me in for that one too Tan.
    I did do books last year though - same as your reasoning - I only kep fave authors like Tim Winton and Helen Garner. The local op shop loved me!

  7. Oh this book looks interesting. I work with a girl who is 38 at Shop Handmade & it's like talking to my big sister (all the nicest parts of my big sister) - the music, fashion chat about the 80's, it's all so familiar. Have a lovely giveaway, love Posie
