Today I arrived at work to find a package waiting for me!! I love the online ordering frenzy that hist me right before Christmas. I also love that the weeks of extra shifts have made it possible to do this without losing my house!! Exhausting but worth it.
Like last year, I can't seem to order for other people without tacking a little something on for myself... This time it is books - from Zooba though, so not even all that expensive!
These are the books I found for Bean:

And these I found for myself:

Ignore the Amazon.com markings and buy from your local, independent bookseller. Or Zooba.
I tend to buy more at my local bookstore, but I can't get away from the great Zooba prices. It's sort of like my new yarn purchases... I buy a large percentage of my yarn at Twist, but I still make the occasional Knitpicks purchase. I believe in local businesses and I believe in independent sellers, but I can't stay away from a really good deal!
I still have quite a bit of my list to get through... and no idea what to get for my dad.
I meant what I wrote the other day: I am NOT going to great lengths this year to find the "perfect" gifts... but if I can get close without making myself crazy I'm all about it.
Well, I'm off to read.

Great books! And if I were you, I'd also read Magik, I read the series and wholly enjoyed them :)
Don't you just love books! I could so spend hours at the bokstore or online surfing through books! (oh wait i do!) Those xmas ornaments from your pal are adorable...and how clever to just decorate the pre bought rice krispie treats...may have to do that one too!
Those books look terrific. I can't wait to read Run and The Abstinence Teacher. I LOVE Ann Patchett.
I may have to join Zooba--I'm not happy with bookswim. The shipping is so slow.
