Okay, Christmas is coming (yipes)- I thought it would be fun to share our lists of books we would like to see under the tree...
(please keep it under 25 LOL)
Under 25!! Are you joking???? LOL
The entire Alex Cross series, to start with. My own copy of Three Cups of Tea, Against Medical Advice and anything written by Lorna Landvik. Throw in the last couple of JD Robb In Death Books. I be like the Energizer bunny & keep going and going and going but I left my pad with my book log & wish list at home.
I don't want to see any books under the tree. I like to get mine from the library for free, mostly.

Without looking at any of my lists, I know that I want Blue Moon and Shadowland by Alyson Noel. They are in the Immortals series after Evermore.
I borrow a lot of books from the library too, but I know these will be too hard to finish before they need to be returned (in the case of fiction) or are reference books that I want for my shelves...
At the moment only two come to mind, but I know there are more on my list.
Blue Bells of Scotland by Cafemom member Laura Vosika (available from Amazon.com) :))
American on Purpose by Craig Ferguson
Yeah, I'm not allowed to buy any more books, *sigh* EXCEPT Stephen King's, so I'm getting Under the Dome. Of course, I still buy them anyway, but I try to be subtle about it. So I don't put them on my list. When I do buy them it's usually at yard sales or thrift stores, etc. I'd like to check out second-hands on-line, but I'm not sure how well that works out-anyone have positive experiences to share? I think there's a site called halfprice.com or something like that... I get just about all my new reads from the library (I put a hold on them on-line, too! That way if the kiddos are acting up when it's time to go to the library I can just go in and come right out instead of trying to browse, LOL!) Anyone interested in swapping? ![]()
Yeah thats a hard one being that im trying to keep it under 25 Pages...lolyeah ok i love books.
1. About 5 books by Johanna Lindsey that i dont have so that i can officially own all her books (shes Historical Romance)
2. The Rest of Stephanie Laurens Books that i dont have
3. Anything by Linda Lael Miller
4. Between 2 Queens by Kate Emerson
5. Nerfertitti by Michelle Moran (actually any of her books)
For this reason they will just get me a gift card cause i have 10 pages of books i want... LOL
Well, under 25? Let's see- First a good discount book place- Edward Hamilton Books is wonderful for discounted books of ALL kinds- on line & by mail.Some are really current titles & some are older, but cheap!
I will be giving a coulpe of Borders book cards- & I hope i will recieve one too! Borders is having an online gift card 'sale' but I don't know for how long- check it out if you are a member.
