Really not sure why I waited three years in between reading books one and two. Especially since I’ve been on a Sherlock Holmes kick since January 2017 (still going strong!). And especially since MsWas was kind enough to send me books two, three, and four in the CBR Book Exchange that year. They’ve just been sitting here waiting for me! I think I kind of forgot why I liked the first book so much after I read it, and it wasn’t the mystery, or even the appearance […]
Book Exchange is My Favorite Holiday Thing
Yay Book Exchange and LaurenH! I think that’s the awesome one’s name; I may have forgotten the note at home while I’m visiting family 900 miles away. I’ll check on that next week to be sure 🤗
Thanks so much Teresa Electro, and sorry I’m lazy Amanda from CA!
So this is my first book exchange. The lovely Teresa Electro got me in the exchange. She sent me a box with three wrapped (!) books inside, plus a bookmark. She even sent a handwritten card! She either read through my Goodreads “to read” pile, or looked through my CBR reviews, because she sent me books I ABSOLUTELY want to read. I’m so excited about reading these books! I was so excited when I opened the box that I started taking pictures of the books […]
Thank you, Alexis!
Alexis made my day–TWICE! I got two beautiful packages from her on two different days: one with The Night Circus and In the Night Garden, and the other with Lonesome Dove and a beautiful card. I’m so excited to have THREE books to get me started on CBR10! Lonesome Dove has languished on my TBR list for years. Thank you, Alexis!
Belated Thanks (Cannonball 8 Book Exchange)
Before it becomes way to late to express my gratitude, I want to thank Alexis for the awesome books she sent as part of the Cannonball 8 Book exchange. Winger by Andrew Smith and Uprooted by Naomi Novik have been on my TBR list and high up at that. Now I have a good excuse to bump them all the way to the top. The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson is new to me, but I’m always looking for new fantasy series to jump […]
Yay for more books for CBR9!
Thanks alwaysanswerb! I am already reading Issa Rae’s book and gearing up for CBR9. 🙂
