The Bookish Christmas Pile
Last week, I shared my bookish wishlist for the holidays. Today, I share with you what I actually received, and I am happy to report that a few of those wishes came true!! I will leave you with a little picture featuring not only my bookish Christmas pile, but also my kids' as well. We had a wonderful bookish Christmas and we can't wait to dive into our treasures! (I may even have to dive into my son's pile as well!)

ReplyDeleteI did receive two of my wishlist books from my Secret Santa. The Kingmaker's Daughter by Philippa Gregory and The Restorer by Amanda Stevens.
Michelle Miller ... Thank you!! I have never read a Philippa Gregory, but I need to! I've only heard wonderful things!
DeleteI had a couple of the grey covers from Persephone (http://www.persephonebooks.co.uk/) from my book friends as well as a couple of books by Debbie Macomber (our guilty secret!)
ReplyDeleteI have a wishlist that my friends and family can choose from, or they can simply cheat and give me book vouchers!
nordie ... Those covers are simple, yet elegant! I like!! I love that my husband finally figured out that a stack of books would please me more than anything else. I give him a long list and he chooses for me!!
DeleteI got a bag of books from a Secret Santa. All have been on my wishlist, so he/she must have consulted it on

techeditor ... Very nice! I have always wanted to read DuMaurier and am hoping 2014 will be the year!
DeleteJealous. You know from FB that I got ZILCH in the book department. I am still boo-hooing over it.
ReplyDeleteTi ... I would be too! I'm hoping you receive some wonderful books for 2014 to make up for it!
DeleteLooks like a wonderful Christmas all around! I got loads of books for Christmas and am a very very happy post-Christmas girl. :)
ReplyDeleteJenny @ Reading the End ... Yay!!! Loads of books definitely equals happiness for me too!! :)
DeleteI definitely see lots of treasures here! I hope you all enjoy!
ReplyDeleteAndi ... I'm sure we will enjoy! We plan on diving in to them a bit today actually!
DeleteNice! I think that books make the BEST gifts! Got several from my Secret Santa, and really looking forward to reading her favorite book as I love discovering new authors. Glad you had a great Christmas!
ReplyDeleteAlexia561 ... I love discovering new authors too! Two of the authors in my pile are new to me, and I ordered some new authors as well with a giftcard. Yippee!!
DeleteI neither asked for nor received any books for Christmas. My family is afraid to buy them for me :-). Guess I'll have to do my own book shopping! Glad to see your family had such a lovely bookish holiday.
ReplyDeleteFlorinda Pendley Vasquez ... I've been bugging my husband for a VERY long time about bookish gifts. I have to provide him with a pretty long list to choose from, but he thinks it is now easier for him to shop! :)
