So far I have none. I use the net way more, esp. now that I have my laptop. Not to say if I run across a good deal I wouldn't grab a book or a few ;) I do love books, all books =)

I have
The Spinners Companion from Interweave, didn't find it terribly informative
In Sheeps Clothing-good book, very indepth info about the difference in wool from different breeds.
Spinning Designer Yarns Need to really read this one, only flipped through it before I knew what I was doing and I couldn't tell you what half of it is about.

So....going to tell us what's up???? :devil

I found this one helpful when I first got my wheel... because i had dumb dumb dumb questions that I couldn't find the answers to anywhere else. Troubleshooting problems. :) Now I don't find it all that useful!

Supposedly the Alden Amos one is one of the best if you can get around his hoity-toity better-than-you anti-double-treadle attitude. :)
