Ooooo, I'll be back on here soon. It's 8:00am where I am and we're still forcing my mom out of bed and waiting for my grandparents.

I didn't get any yet for Christmas, but I got three for Hanukkah last weekend:
How to Stay De-Junked Forever by Dawna Walter
Candlemaking for Fun and Profit by Michelle Espino
Bazaar Bizarre by Greg Der Ananian

And I got a Palm so I can use it as an ebook reader (and an MP3 player)

Just one book, but I did get a $50 Barnes & Noble gift card.

Edited because grammar is good.

Rebel Angels- Libba Bray
Complete Short Stories- William Faulkner
Compete Short Stories- Flannery O'Conner
My Sister's Keeper- Jodi Picoult

I asked for all of these, so I am pretty excited. I also have around 100 dollars in gift cards since my birthday is so close to Christmas which for me is the perfect gift.

Hey I'm kinda new to this board

I got a book for Christmas, in English the title would be something like "Fearful Minds: understanding and getting over it", and it's about the most common kinds of anxiety disorders I asked for it because I had panic disorder (is that how you call it in English?) well, I had panic, so I always enjoy readng and understanding more about it. It's interesting to look at the disease after you got over it and moved on, cause you can still relate to the subject but not in the same way, you get to analyze it and understand it much better

These are the books I got for Christmas:

"Dear John" by Nicholas Sparks
"Love's Unending Legacy (#5)"- Janette Oke
"Love's Unfolding Dream (#6)"- Janette Oke
"Love Takes Wing (#7)"- Janette Oke
"Love Finds a Home (#8)"- Janette Oke

Plus I got a $25 gift card to Barnes & Noble. I figure I can get at least 3 books with that since most books I get range around $7. Looking forward to spending that.

Ooo, good thread idea. I got:

Specials by Scott Westerfeld
The Nine Lives of Chloe King: The Fallen by Celia Thomson
Twilight by Stephanie Meyer

The last one I already started reading. It's amazing so far. There's a sequel and I have a feeling I will be short 9-15 dollars soon.
