My Christmas Haul
Tuesday, December 29, 2009
I got around $200 worth of book store gift cards this year. Like I really needed more books! I also got a new 6 foot bookshelf, so I suppose things have evened out. Here is what I got:
from Barnes and Noble:
Magic Study by Maria V. Snyder
Wastelands: Stories of the Apocalypse by Various
The Living Dead by Various- I've had both of these anthologies on my wishlist for quite some time now.
Invitation to the Game by Monica Hughes
Floodland by Marcus Sedgwick
The Carbon Diaries by Saci Loyd
Obernewtyn by Isobelle Carmondy
Truancy by Isamu Fukui
from Strand Books:
Truancy Origins by Isamu Fukui
Sharp North by Patrick Cave
Gemx by Nicky Singer
All Unquiet Things by Anna Jarzab- found a finished copy! Squee!
Out of My Mind by Sharon M. Draper
Getting Revenge on Lauren Wood by Eileen Cook

Well, what's the point of a new bookshelf if you can't overload it within the first couple weeks? LOL

Fantastic, my shelves are all double stacked and I still have piles on the floor. *sigh*

I love Monica Hughes!! Invitation to the Game is good.
Here's a funny story that no one's gonna read 'cause I'm so badly behind on google reader...
Monica Huges wrote a book called My Name is Paula Popowich! (not sure of the spelling there, though) and in it, the MC Paula moved from Ontario to Saskatchewan. Which my mom and I did when I was 11 or 12. Lol :)
