Okay, which book did you get for CHristmas that was on the top of your list? I didn't get any books but I got a gift card from my Dad for the bookstore I'm working at... and I've had my eyes on a few of them; including Memoirs of a Geisha
I actually did buy and wrap for myself Memoirs Of A Geisha, LOL! Oldest dd spotted it and promptly announced that she wants to read it when I finish.
Other than that, no books. My secret Santa at work gave me a $25 gift card to Bed Bath And Beyond, which kinda ticks me off as I didn't even put that on my list of three suggestions. I had ASKED for a Barnes & Noble gift card. Sigh. Oh well. It didn't go to waste, oldest dd needed to purchase some sheets for her dorm bed, so I gave her the gift card instead.
I ended up with two books for christmas: one I wanted and one I didn't. :)
I got Nicholas Sparks' At First Sight (YEAH!!!). Then my uncle gave me this religious texts books (or something like that). It's not really my thing, but it's all he ever sends any of us. LOL!
I got three books for Christmas. Cypress Point by Diane Chamberlain from my son's girlfriend. The Painting On The Pond by Sharon Lewis Koho from my mom and The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova from my brother and sister-in-law. I never read anything from any of these authors. I hope they are good. ~ Joey
I got Undead and Unwed by Mary Janice Davidson and Died in the Wool by Mary Kruger from a friend of mine. I also got two gift cards to Barnes & Noble. Sweet!! Gae
