Get the names of the books you want and the library will get them for you. That is if they haven't got them in.

It's at 118 Johnson St., just opposite the Greek Orthodox Church. This is probably no help whatsoever Any how, you can't miss it; it's full of books.

Yeah that's the 1. Very good book.
The one after Ugly will be good no doubt too.
There is one also by a Mancunian called Stuart Howarth "Please Daddy No"
Also a very good book

Just round the corner from my house on James Street Flashy the Kim Woodburn book is well worth reading. I haven't been reading much lately (haven't got the patience) but I've read quite a lot of the books mentioned and the ones I haven't are on my list for future reference
