Show Us Your Goodies!
My Secret Santa just gave me First and First, Duck Duck Ghost and The Deeper He Hurts. Thank you so much! You rock! I'm so excited to get started on these books and extra excited because I can listen to the audio versions of the first two (thank you whispersync!). I also realized that means my first gift was from someone other than my secret santa, so thank you again to the generous helpful elf!
I got another wonderful gift. This time it's
from A Fellow Challenge Addicted Elf. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! I had just decided that I wanted to continue with this series and here the next book is. Yay!!
I've received two goodies!Secret Santa sent me
Handle with Care by Josephine Myles! So great!! Can't wait to read this. It's been on my considering shelf for a while.I also received a gift from Secret Elf, who I am guessing is different from Secret Santa. Same person or not, I'm very grateful for
Merry Christmas, Mr. Miggles by Eli Easton. This looks ADORABLE!Thank you both for such generous gifts!!

Hi, everyone!!!I have Old Loyalty, New Love in my ARe library that I bought a couple of weeks back. Only I realized I already own that title. Anyone interested in an additional gift? :)
Awe, I got a couple things. A helpful elf got me Walking on Thin Ice and wrote a super sweet message. I've been off quite a bit because I've been editing for NineStar Press and doing a lot of stuff there (and graduating graduate school!) But your message made me smile so much. Thank you!
