[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 652245, member: 1233"] You might want to ask if used books can be sent from a used book vendor like Amazon Marketplace, Alibris, Abebooks, etc... or if they can only be brand new books. You can often find used books that are much cheaper and then you can send more. I don't know what he likes, but sending books on mental health, religiously angled books etc... are only okay if HE wants them. Otherwise it could be seen as shoving your beliefs down his throat. I know of a few families who ended up with huge rifts over that sort of thing. A friend of my parents is mostly in charge of our county jail. He says that westerns are extremely popular (authors like Louis L'Amour) even though many are older. He also told us that the Chicken Soup books are often sent by parents but the inmates don't seem fond of them. [/QUOTE]
