You guys, you can’t even believe how fired up my house was on Christmas Eve when we told the kids it was ok to go ahead and open up their Cannonball Exchange books. There was much rejoicing. Mswas, Yesknopemaybe, HasenKlub, you guys are the best. You are the reason that we keep doing this every year. This is pretty much the best virtual group of friends on the planet! Horses, Gilmore Girls, World War II, The New England Patriots — all of their interests were […]
Books are the best gifts!
Many thanks to Malin for spoiling me this year. So excited to have a hardcopy of The Hating Game which I read and loved earlier this year (I’m so behind on reviews ya’ll). It’s a book I know I’ll be rereading whenever I need a pick-me-up. Fingersmith and The Princess Bride have been on my to be read list for literally ages so I’m thrilled to get my hands on those for 2017. Thanks again!
So much awesomeness! Tusen, tusen takk, Mathilde!

Hence, once I was actually indoors, I had no plans of leaving again, even with the enticement of books waiting for me at the post office. Today, I put my trusty crampons […]
GIFTS!
ElCicco gives the most awesomest books — and, side note, dark-chocolate covered pretzels are my favorite treats ever! I’m rationing them, though. Thanks so much! (I’ve already started Galileo’s Middle Finger.)
This girl got all the gifts! Thanks Loubear!
Thank you, Loubear, for my lovely gifts! (And thank you scootsa1000 for being a helpful mom! Your review made me want to read The Girl With All the Gifts!) My library doesn’t have The Coldest Girl in Coldtown, so the only way to read it was to get it. And the bookplates are adorable, so maybe I can safely lend out some books and know they’ll come back home! Can’t wait to see you in Cannonball Read 9!
badkittyuno is a book sommelier!
A big thanks to badkittyuno, whose super power must be picking out the perfect book for someone! I am super excited with my gifts – Little Face by Sophie Hannah and A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness – I can’t even decide which one to read first!
