   64)I was tempted to start explaining why this book is different from all the other cleaning and organizing books that are now cluttering your bookshelves, being used to level the dining room table, or holding down a pile of clutter! 

Marla Cilley, Sink Reflections, [2002]      65)Almost anyone comparing the perfectly manufactured crystal dome – easily the size of a palace – and the gooey, glowing, green substance upon which it floated would appraise the former as the more precious. Danny Birt, Beginning, Second Book of the Laurian Pentology     Now, I'm not sure I like the new look of the pictures in this post, but I was desperate to try out the new Amazon Associates feature to see how easy it was to add this many books. 
It is extremely simple to use and much quicker than hunting the net for pictures and then downloading them to my computer, save as, and then uploading them to Blogger, which is what I normally do. It can take quite a few hours to prepare a post like this!  So for it's time saving factor it's worth it. But annoyingly it wont let me place a picture in the centre! :)  

What's your Thursday 13?
