[BHE 623] Book Haul From A Dear Friend’s Collection (Part 2 of 3)

Welcome home, new book babies.

Myra here.

Last week, I shared the books I inherited from our dearest friend who will be moving back to the United States to teach at Indiana University after teaching here in the UAE for two years.

As he starts his new journey back in his country of birth, the United States, he left behind two boxful of books for my safekeeping. Here is the second part which consists mostly of fiction and nonfiction titles.
