Fairly smooth. Loved the way shopping is arranged, pick the title, drill in to see options. Very easy.
Looking for a good value on a couple of titles. One out of print and fairly expensive.

Ali rid borders a rare confluence of literary genres in an ever diminishing island of out-of- circulation books.
Because it is seldom equaled, never excelled.
