hank you for the Joan Didion book.. 6 out of 5 stars! A beautiful copy, quickly delivered, carefully packaged. Just the grace note I needed at the end of a long work day!
I am very pleased that you took the time to consult me on the price before just adding the additional shipping cost onto my credit card.
