To be honest, my list is much longer than this, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed on these 10. And if I don't receive them, I will probably go buy them (more than likely with a bookish gift card as I always - and luckily - seem to receive them).
What books do you hope to receive for the holidays?
I'm still debating on The Supernatural Enhancements. I really enjoyed the book, but I'm not sure I enjoyed it enough to own it. I'm not sure I'd read it a second time. But then I saw it in the book store last week,a nd thought wow I want that one on my shelves. So...yeah, not sure. :D
ReplyDeleteGreat list. I have just started delving into Jo Walton's work. Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteI accidentally saw one that I'm getting (Murakami's The Strange Library) but I'm hopeful that there are many other books under my tree!
