All I want for Christmas are books...

Christmas is in the air!  Hurrah!! And that means lists galore. Everyone keeps posting about bookish items they want and that means I keep adding titles to my own wish list.  Its never-ending!  Anyhow, I thought I'd share which books I wouldn't mind unwrapping on December 25th:










Aren't they lovely?  I just know that I would devour them all and relish reading them.  Its a pretty good mix.  Some Murakami-related items, a Vonnegut book (his personal drawings!), and some Toni Morrison (I just loved her on Colbert).  The rest are books that I've heard about all year and have been coveting for quite some time. What do you think?  Do you have any recommendations?  And what about your bookish wish lists - what titles are on yours?

Great list. Of course the ones about Murakami stood out.

I gotta tell ya, I went to B&N last night to get my Strange Library copy and it was no where to be found! I finally saw some guy unpacking boxes and sure enough...the books were in there. I grabbed one right after he put it on the shelf and it had a dent in it. So I grabbed another. Another dent. Grabbed a third and then took that pic I shared and man did he give me the stink eye!! I was like, get over yourself pal. LOL. Nothing stands between me and the book.

Of course, I have yet to remove the shrink wrap.

Brandie, they are pretty :) Thanks!! I hope you get what you want for Christmas, too!!

Ti, thanks! Gotta love anything Murakami related :) I'm glad you got your copy. I would have dug in the box until I found an un-dented one as well. I keep hearing so many great things about this one - can't wait!! I'm looking forward to finding out what you think. Murakami during the holidays is the BEST!!

I'm with you! Books make the best Christmas presents...they're the gift that keeps on giving long after the holidays have ended. I would love to get a box of books for Christmas this year. I hope you get all the books on your wishlist. Happy Reading!

I'd love to have some of those myself! I know I'm getting a few books - I picked them out when the hubby and I were out shopping. But one of my sons said people shouldn't give me books for Christmas because I already have too many books. I told him there was no such thing as too many books! Hope you get some of these!
