No, use them to house train a puppy or line a bird cage.

That'll do it.

...a difficult choice for you.

I used to adore her - on several levels. But, for some time it has bothered me that she seems to absolutely relish the ad hominem attack, and that seems to be the only tool in her kit.

I think I have two of her books, including the one on Joseph McCarthy. Her book is ok at best, but if you want a serious read on that subject, try M. Stanton Evans’s book.

Donate them to your local library--she won't like that, especially if they make it into the collection.

At a book signing, I told her that since I had a say in collection development at the library where I worked, I would make sure her book was added to our collection. To my surprise, she expressed disappointment, saying that sales would be hurt if the book was available in the public library.

I found this attitude to be rather short-sighted. Most authors want their books in public library collections, and many go to considerable efforts to convince libraries to purchase their books and to get patrons to check them out and read them.
