This is an extremely late, but huge thank you to The Chancellor for the book exchange goodies! I’ve had The Day the World Came to Town on my TBR list ever since reading a review of it right here on CBR. I work in aviation, and everybody who was here on 9/11 talks about how absolutely chaotic the logistics of that was. I am really excited to read this one. I received this package of books just before going on a trip to Utah, and […]
Thank you, ElCicco!
Thank you to my fellow Ellen! I’m so excited to try the treats and to read Yvain: The Knight of the Lion! PLUS to have my own copy of the Kristin Lavransdatter trilogy. . . *sighs with happiness* And look how cutely everything came packaged! Thank you, thank you, thank you, and happy holidays!
CBR Book Exchange: Thank you, borisanne!
This Will Only Hurt a Little by Busy Philipps
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Thank you again to borisanne, I know you mentioned some logistical issues (I will definitely pick up Educated!) but it […]
Hooray for the CBR9 Book Exchange
March Book One by John Lewis and Andrew Aydin
Thank you, CoffeeShopReader! I’ve been meaning to read March ever since I saw John Lewis speak at LA Review of Books in the spring. And I will be able to get all the NightVale references once I read that one. I love tea too and excited to try them all. 🙂
After 515 Kissing Books, Interesting Is Welcome
The Secret Heart by Erin Satie
I received The Secret Heart in the Cannonball Book Exchange. It was selected for me by my “romance twin“, Beth Ellen, the fellow reader with whom I most often agree on books. It was interesting. From Amazon: Adam, Earl of Bexley, lives to work. His only relief is the sordid savagery of bare-knuckle boxing. Not women, and definitely not a disreputable, scheming woman who dances in secret with such passion…Caro Small is desperate to escape her selfish family. Her only chance is a good marriage, and […]
