I'd preordered this awhile ago from this store that's on the west coast I think. It came signed and with a bunch of cool swag.

I think that's it for now! I've been trying not to buy too many books, after my huge hauls in December and January! I do have a few new releases I need to get though. Might have to wait until after my wisdom teeth surgery!

You’re so amazing, Catherine! I don’t have a classroom but I think I’d do the same thing. I do it for my grandkids. If I have an inkling of anything I think they want to read, I run and buy them their own copy. I love seeing kids get excited to read something!
