Borders will order it in if they don’t have it on the shelves. Readings in St Kilda has a copy (at least they did on Saturday…).
Chris – yes, order from Readings down in Melbourne. I also saw it in there, on Sunday. I think you would love it.
Gra – Thanks for your ‘mood’ response 😉 And thank you ever so much for giving me the book. xo
