Several thousand new books - mostly #scifi - just arrived at the Covehouse. As always, they are free for guests to take home - do not want you having to rush a book you started. Deep debt of gratitude to Tamara for the delightful donation of her massive personal library. We use @bookcrossing_official to track where in the world our books get to. All books have been recorded in @goodreads.
