Hooked_on_books Your Jolabokaflod swap gift should be on your porch as of yesterday based on the tracking number. I just want to make sure you don‘t miss seeing it. It took a long time to get there! 4y
DebinHawaii Hi There, I got notice saying your #JolabokaflodSwap envelope was delivered earlier today & I wanted to make sure you got it finally. I wasn‘t sure it was going to make itโ€” it is the first of 3 packages I mailed on 12/11 to actually arrive.๐Ÿ˜ฌ (edited) 4y
MaleficentBookDragon @LiteraryinLititz absolutely pass them along. 4y

Pickpick

"The Postman" of Antonio Skármeta is a touching and humorous novel involved in Pablo Neruda's timeless poetry. Undoubtedly, what I liked the most about this novel was the relationship and the dialogues between Mario Jimenez and the poet Neruda. Nevertheless and as far as I am concerned there is a lack of historical context about the political situation of the time, in Chile. #thepostman #review #pabloneruda #antonioskarmeta #chile
