please help me return this book
I borrowed this book in the year 2000 from a friend. Unfortunately, I have since forgotten her full name, have dropped off of any and all social media that might be tied to my legal name, and the last screen name I have for her is for AIM which has been gone for longer than I care to think about.
I feel extremely guilty because it’s autographed, and thus irreplaceable to the person who loaned it to me. And I’ve had it for 23 years, keeping track of it through every house and dorm and apartment I’ve lived in. I still don’t think of it as “my” copy, because it’s not really.
23 years is long enough. If this sounds familiar to you, please get in touch. I just want to return it.

UPDATE
WHILE THE BOOK’S ORIGINAL OWNER HAS NOT BEEN FOUND, SEVERAL OF MY COLLEGE FRIENDS HAVE BEEN AND I AM NOW HAVING ENORMOUS INCREDIBLE FEELINGS (POSITIVE)
THANK YOU TUMBLR
I don't know whose book this is, but I do know Greer, which suggests that I may also know people who would have (once had) an autographed copy of Moonwise from her. (My own copy is about ten feet away on the bedside table, because it's a great book for reading aloud.)
As it turns out, I don’t know whose book this is either. The person I thought it belonged to was under the impression that it was actually my copy! So uh. If any of the candidates were in high school or college in 1999/2000 and loaned out their copy of Moonwise and haven’t gotten it back…
(also please tell her it’s a great book and I love it)
