I have my guess too but I'm trying not to out any of the elves as they're gifting multiple people. I bet I'm right though. :D

Yes, I looooved that, still need to read Us, sitting on my kindle, waiting.

LMAO, ok listen. Apparently, sarcasm doesn't translate well here or you're deliberately ignoring it * <------ I vote this* because I love you and all, but you're just not that good an actress. Toe-tapping and staring innocently at the sky will only get you so far.
So no igloos. If I come North into the snow, I'm staying with you! ;)

well, damn!! I thought I was doing so well. Gallic = French + Cheese equaled brie.

Don't forget the wine. And the serving boys!
A Helpful Elf elf struck again, this time via ARe and sent me
! Thank you mysterious and generous helpful elf! Just in time for Christmas Bingo!
My secret elf sent me Him, and it was perfect timing... because let me tell you, I'm on a hockey craze right now that I just can't shake! Not that I want to :) Thank you lovely secret elf!
M'rella wrote: "Can someone gift me a free book from ARe? Send it to ya.ayano at gmail. I am testing something. Thanks!"Done.
I didn't even look to see what the book was...just free...
My Secret Elf just gifted me
. I love Kris Ripper's writing and am excited to start on a new series. Thank you Secret Elf.
Thanks, Jewel!It works now. Took me some serious tweaking. It's sent from an "unknown sender", basically with an empty field, no wonder it all goes anywhere but inbox! If ARe could put their domain in the sender's field, it would make our lives so much easier!

Yep, that is precisely what I was talking about. There is no from address at all, which is no wonder so many providers get rejecty with it.

I've been completely spoiled and overwhelmed by my Secret Santa (yes I'm all over the place in my reading likes!):
Wicked Gentlemen |
Custom Fit |
24/7 |
Skin Deep |
Provoked |
Priddy’s TaleThen, Mrs. Santa (not my SS) sent
What It Looks Like that had gotten added last minute to the wishlist from your recs.And then, from Hanukkah Harlot, I received
Not My Father's Son (which will probably be a heartbreaker of a read).THANK YOU!!!! To all who have blessed me with this embarrassment of riches today and over this exchange. I wish I had more time to just read. Someday!
Apparently there is still an Elf spreading the love to me. Elf in Chartreuse sent me this book today
Thank you so much (is your name a hint that you're located in France??)
OK this is so cool, I just got NINJA Elf'ed AGAIN, LOL. Thank you beautiful person for
This is crazy banana's, it's my 3rd secret ninja attack. I can tell you they DO NOT HURT!!!!!!! Love to all
Thank you for "Mad Lyzard Mambo" Santa and thank you for "Frost of cares" kind person from where it is hot :-).
I have the most awesome and generous of Secret Santa's who has been super busy collecting all of these books to gift to me:
AND
(((Mwah))) - Love you to pieces, SS!!! Thank you so much!!! :)

Michelle wrote: "Thank you to Elf's my middle name for
!! This looks awesome! Gah I love books"I love this series!
"Mrs. Santa not Your SS" sent me a $5 Amazon Gift Card!!!the note was so lovely, i brought a tear to my eyes...seriously.
"You are the bestest type of friend anyone could ever hope for. Thank you for your friendship." :*)
this gives me a huge idea as to who it could be...so i'm off to the other thread to make my guess on this gift (even though i know they're not my assigned Secret Santa).
Another surprise popped into my ARe library!! This time it's Victorian Holiday Hearts: a Boxed Set, which looks AMAZING!!! I wish I knew who it was from! Love you all!
I just got a new shiny!!!! Dead in L.A. from A Cheerful, Happy Elf. Of course, only a a Cheerful Happy Elf can handle such a gruesome title ;)I was wondering about Lou Harper. A totally new author for me. Great gift =) Thank you so much and Happy, Cheerful holidays to you, my elven friend =)
