I don't like any book in the Vintage Collectors Classics range enough to own multiple copies (except Pride & Prejudice, of which I already own three), and some I don't want any copy of at all (Little Women) but my god I need every single one of these in my life. www.readings.com.au/collections/...

My kid is aiming for uni next year so all my social media ads based on those researches are to enrol in various unis, which makes me sad because I would if I had time.
