I have already read all but one of these. I'd like to use my free swap to remove Drop City, which I found particularly unworthy of rereading. I may reread Billy Budd if I get bored enough, so it can stay. And' I'll use points to swap The Manor, which was quite good, and has a lovely newer edition which also includes The Estate, aka the second half of the book before it was truncated for English language publication/marketing. (Also, just out of curiosity, how are WL books determined? I read and reviewed The Manor and created the review thread for it in our 1001 Book Reviews folder, so I know it has a review now. Is there a minimum number of reviews that bumps a book off of the wish list, or do we recompile the wish list periodically? I've never been clear about that part of this game since I joined, actually.) Thanks. :)
Hi Jamie,
I will let you swap The Manor as well. Wishlist books are updated on the spreadsheet when I notice they have been reviewed normally I pick up on them from the Random lists when people ask for new books but obviously I missed this one.
