  I never know what I will find when I browse catalogs (in hand or online). Recently I found (on Edelweiss) Zara’s Big Messy Books. These books are currently available, but I had them as reader copies, so there are a few “missing” pieces, such as I am not sure of the size of them, and I think that might affect some of the readers willingness to read.
