I got Deadline (Newsflesh Trilogy, #2) by Mira Grant , A Clash of Kings (A Song of Ice and Fire, #2) by George R.R. Martin , Epic Fail by Claire LaZebnik , The Last Olympian (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #5) by Rick Riordan , and Matched (Matched, #1) by Ally Condie (which I'm going to have to return because I already have a copy of it) from my grandparents. And Spirit of the Elephant by Gill Davies from my dad and step-mom.

I had Christmas at my dad's house this morning, tomorrow I have Christmas at my mom's (home) and at my Grandma's.

Adriana Oh, I thought you had it like a day earlier because of where you lived. I was pouting a little. (:
Did you want those books?

No Christmas is tomorrow here. Yes I had wanted all of these books except Matched I wanted Crossed (Matched, #2) by Ally Condie it's sequel, the elephant one was a surprise but I adore elephants. But tomorrow I'm getting a bunch more books from my mom tomorrow, one from my sister, and possibly some from other family members.

Adriana That's great that they know what you want because I always get gift cards which isn't that bad either but still.
I wanted to get Crossed too but there are a lot of bad reviews so I'll probably wait till the library gets it.

Lists ;)

That's what I'm seeing too, from my understanding it's suffering from middle book syndrome where it's just setting up for book three.

Jex (jexball) I didn't get any books, but I have a Kindle Fire on the way :-) Should be here Tuesday because the shipping got delayed.

That works!


message 16: by Adriana (new)

Adriana Yeah it does!

My mom got a Kindle (I think it was the regular one) from my dad. So I might sneak some books in there.


message 17: by Jex (new)

Jex (jexball) Just got word that my Kindle Fire is sitting in a box on my counter at home. The work day needs to end sooner so I can go home and open it!
