    I'm so happy I was able to secure a copy of this out-of-print book from goodreads2015! My order was packaged very, very securely and received on a timely basis. The book I ordered was exactly as described and in excellent condition and offered at a great price point. I'll be ordering from goodreads2015 again as it was a pleasure doing business with them.

    This item was in pristine condition. Exactly as i remember it first time off the shelf at my local bookstore. Seller was prompt, and it came adequately protected. The only issue i had was the actual delivery. 3 seperate arrival dates in under a week made it hard to judge when it would be delivered. But considering it went USPS, and with the government shutdown wreaking havoc as it is, it was hardly the sellers fault. Absolutely would buy from them again.
