MALACHIlolz. no. the only books that have worth in my collection are the autograped first-run books by local writers. most of my books are in paperbacks coz since HS i loan them to my friends and half-expecting it to return to my fold. PCRPOGIDA Vinci code, yea it became a nice read during the late 90s. interesting but cannot withstand thorough scrutiny and applied logic. Quote Link to comment
