I am seized, of late, with a desire to pare down my bookshelf some. Also to acquire laundry change. If you're interested in any of these, *e-mail* me; they're all fiction, novels, and paperbacks unless otherwise specified.

The White Crow, Cynthia Peale. Murder mystery with séance, set in Victorian Boston.
House of Blood, Bryan Smith. Uhm. This one's going free. It didn't particularly move me.
The Ivory and the Horn, Charles de Lint. Short story collection.
Moonlight and Vines, Charles de Lint. Short story collection.
The Best of Keith Laumer. Short story collection.
Cabal, Clive Barker. One of those cases where I ended up with two copies.
ThiGMOO, Eugene Byrne. Short for This Great Movement of Ours. AI personalities created to represent various periods of history in the Museum of the Mind escape into the world-wide computer network.
Memory & Dream, Charles de Lint. One of the Newford novels, paintings coming to life, magic and artists.
Someplace to be Flying, Charles de Lint. Newford again; the animal people, thought I don't recall much of it except the crow girls.
Steel Rose, Kara Dalkey. Performance artist gets caught up becomes a pawn in faerie machinations. Managed to neatly avoid both the "Oh, everyone knows everything" and the "Man, I am artificially clueless" takes on the protagonist's interactions with the fae.
The Stainless Steel Rat Sings the Blues, Harry Harrison.
The Collected Works of Max Haines, volume 4. Trade paperback, 641 pages of three-or-four page summaries of the cases of various murderers.
Canadian Crimes, Max Haines. More true-crime short summaries.
Encyclopaedia of Modern Murder. Single trade paperback, which should indicate that it's not exactly comprehensive.

All in decent shape--the Encyclopaedia has one of the inset photo-pages falling out, and The Ivory and the Horn has a small tear where the back cover meets the spine (less than 1/2" inch).
