(Your book(s) asked to write you a personal note - it seemed unusual, but who are we to say no?)
Holy canasta! It's me... it's me! I
can't believe it is actually me! You could have picked any of over 2
million books but you picked me! I've got to get packed! How is the
weather where you live? Will I need a dust jacket? I can't believe I'm
leaving Mishawaka, Indiana already - the friendly people, the Hummer
plant, the Linebacker Lounge - so many memories. I don't have much time
to say goodbye to everyone, but it's time to see the world!
I can't wait to meet you! You sound
like such a well read person. Although, I have to say, it sure has
taken you a while! I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but how would you
like to spend five months sandwiched between Jane Eyre (drama queen)
and Fundamentals of Thermodynamics (pyromaniac)? At least Jane was an
upgrade from that stupid book on brewing beer. How many times did the
ol' brewmaster have one too many and topple off our shelf at 2am?
I know the trip to meet you will be
long and fraught with peril, but after the close calls I've had, I'm
ready for anything (besides, some of my best friends are suspense
novels). Just five months ago, I thought I was a goner. My owner was
moving and couldn't take me with her. I was sure I was landfill bait
until I ended up in a Better World Books book drive bin. Thanks to your
socially conscious book shopping, I've found a new home. Even better,
your book buying dollars are helping kids read from Brazil to Botswana.
But hey, enough about me, I've been asked to brief you on a few things:
utt.
