What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

"Caroline has her dream fulfilled. In Taylorsburg, Mississippi, in 1907, there is a new school where she teaches lower elementary classes. As a young woman with a servant's heart, she seeks nothing for herself. She suffers a wound that refuses to heal. Believing that the damage she has endured from abuse has rendered her unlovable, she knows she will never marry or allow any man to fall in love with her. Meanwhile, Jake MacGregor moves to Taylorsburg to take over his uncle's store. He is a desirable bachelor, the type many local young women have dreamed of. His brain tells him he needs the business of socially prominent women for his store to survive. His heart tells him that the lovely Caroline, who seems to be an outcast, is the most interesting woman he has ever met. Social issues of racial discord, abuse, inadequate education, and prohibition dominate the scene of Mississippi in the early 1900ss. In this setting, will Caroline have enough courage to embrace life? Will Jake overcome his anger at God for taking his parents and uncle from him in a tornado? How will he deal with having his plans dashed?"--Author's website
