Well, not so much droppings as well thought-out gifts for me. I’ve really only written about the bookstore parts of our road trip, but we had a really fantastic time the whole way through. Tons of chatting and gossiping and laughing. And so, so, so, many things not appropriate for the podcast. If you want to read about some of the none bookish aspects of the trip check out Simon’s blog where he chronicled each day as it happened.

I think the top one Simon bought at John K. King Books because he liked the cover. But apparently he didn’t like it enough to put it in his luggage.

The Melissa Harrison was something special Simon brought from the UK.

The Patrick Gale was also a treat from the UK. I’ve already read it and loved it.

Because I loved Any Human Heart by William Boyd at Booktopia, Simon was so nice to get me Boyd’s latest, hot off the press novel that sounds more than fascinating.
