Usually my husband gives me some surprise book that I didn't know about but not this year! Cry sob sob.

My sister in law gave me Wally Lambs new book "Wishin' and Hopin'" for Christmas at our Christmas get together last night. Yeah!

Please let us know how Wishin' and Hopin' is. I have picked it up several times but did not buy it. Now it is 50% off and I am really interested.

I got myself for christmas Dead and Gone & Divine Misdemeanors our families don't do gift exchanges so I just buy gifts for myself LOL of course thats no different than any other day or month of the year! Just easier to jusify LOL ;) Hope you all had lovely holidays!

To Rene Dec. 30,2009 " Wishin' and Hopin' " by Wally Lamb
I highly reccomend this book to everyone. I rate it up there with "A Christmas Story" . This book is so funny. especially anyone who was a child in the early sixties. This story is set in 1964, with a class of 5th graders from Halloween through giving a Christmas program. I could not put this book down.

I was given "Legendary Race Cars" under the tree, and with a gift certificate I bought "Gone" and "The Great Karoo".

My friend I swap with ROCKS, lol. She sent me:


which has been on my to buy list for ages.So that was a pleasant surprise. Also got B n N giftcard.

My husband got me 3 of Elizabeth Ambers Lord of Satyr series, 6 of the Immortals After Dark books & 2 Christina Dodd books! He did good, I am proud of him.

I ended up buying myself an early Christmas gift - I bought "Playing with Fire" by the renown NHL player Theoren Fleury. I also lucked-out because he was doing a book signing at the sametime I purchased the book. (Yipee!)

Hubby and I don't exchange gifts and we didn't buy any books but this week, I received my kindle :) Now let the book-buying begin!
