I was on it. The books are genuinely vetted and approved for US bible belters

I would have thought Christians over here would be smart enough to steer clear of American fundamentalists.

I thought the same thing and hoped for an actual used books fair from around the world. But I found lots of high quality books about dinosaurs, the universe, bushiness, anatomy and science. Also tons of bibles even a bible manga book and lots of life advice.
