Tillie -
I have a friend who has a huge stash of books of all kinds. She would
love to send you some, in the genre/authors you cited, or similar.
She would like to know approximately how many books you would like,
and whether you would prefer hardback, paperback, or both. When I
hear back from you, I will furnish your contact information to her.
Best-
Binnie Syril
