Thank you so much Rudolph the Reindeer (is that you Roger?!) for
, what a wonderful surprise this morning. Since it was a duplicate, I exchanged it for an amazon GC and will get one of the other books on my wishlist--so thank you!Merry Christmas!
OMG I'm so happy!! I just got 3 surprise books from Smutty Elf! Prince of Fools, The Complete Broken Empire Trilogy: Prince of Thorns / King of Thorns / Emperor of Thorns and Bitter Legacy. I actually had tears in my eyes when I read the email. Thanks so much SM! You made my day :))

Brothers was a suggestion from Santa. I think it's a conspiracy to get me to read Haper Fox since I mentioned before it was a new-to-me author. Now I have two books to read. :-)

Oh, that's good to know. I really enjoyed the first book in the series. Now I have the other two.
It looks like the elves got into a shopping frenzy overnight. I loved all the names, but really, I don't need more books in my TBR. I think my hubby is going to change the password to my accounts before I decided to go on a frenzy of my own. He gets scared since I buy my own X-Mas presents and then put his name on them. :-P
OMG, I've been decorating for a while and just checked my email. Smutty Elf just spoiled me rotten! *like I wasn't bad enough already* Wow, thank you so, so much Smutty Elf! That so sweet of you!!I got surprised with such awesome books,
and
So excited for all of these!!I agree with Christelle, the email idea is brilliant, I wish I'd thought of it! There's always next year, yeah? <3

Christelle wrote: "OMG....Smutty Elf is being...very naughty and devious (yes, I mean it : opening an email account under the name of "Smutty Elf" ...that's brilliant !!)..."I was kinda shocked that it would be available. Anyway, Smutty Elf visited and gifted
The Final Round and
Heart Ripper: Coffin Nails MC !!!
Smutty Elf actually "cleaned" up my Elfster wishlist!! Everything I listed have been bought by SS and their elves this year. I am so blessed. Thank you so much everyone
