It’s that time of the year again! Sign ups for the yearly Book Blogger Holiday Swap are now open. Click here to learn more about it. I had so much fun putting together the package for my Santee – I included this shirt:
And several used books that I thought my Santee would enjoy. I also loved the package that I received. So it’s not surprising that I signed up again this year. But instead of giving my Santa my super long wishlist on Goodreads, I decided to pick several titles and just list them down. Some of these have been featured in my Want Books meme. I’m posting the list here to remind myself NOT to buy these books until I get my Holiday Swap package:
The Blue Castle by L.M. Montgomery
Froi of the Exiles by Melina Marchetta
Blood Song by Rhiannon Hart
A Straight Line to my Heart by Bill Condon
Foxmask by Juliet Marillier
I’ll Be There by Holly Goldberg Sloan
The Demon King by Cinda Williams Chima
Northlander by Meg Burden
The Silver Metal Lover by Tanith Lee
A Knot in the Grain by Robin McKinley
Coronets and Steel by Sherwood Smith
Secret Society Girl by Diana Peterfreund
Elfland by Freda Warrington
There is No Dog by Meg Rosoff
Blankets by Craig Thompson
Seeing as I got my package January of this year and that these are my most wanted books, it’s sort of a book buying ban, yes? Who else is planning to sign up? 🙂

Ah I was waiting for people I know to sign up. 🙂 Did you sign up for international swap? I’d like to be able to send an international package this time, and receive one too. 😀

I was waiting for others to talk about it too but I haven’t seen this pop up in my Google Reader and sign ups end tomorrow. I chose just a local swap because the minimum amount is $25 (I think it was just $10 last year?). I would love to send a package internationally but it would probably cost more than a thousand pesos to send at least two books.

Oh. I signed up for international swap. Then again I signed up for one last year and I still got local. So who knows this year. 🙂

LOL I remember that. Remember, only Aaron got an international Santee? I plan to give more than one book so shipping will be expensive if it was international.

Thanks for the heads-up on this! I was wondering when sign-ups were going to begin. I’m in. 🙂

Chelle, it’s always fun to participate in something like this, right? 🙂

I was planning on it. Thanks for the reminder.

Ooh, the deadline is Friday. Glad I saw your post and went over to sign up now. 🙂

Glad you were able to sign up! Now I kind of feel bad that I didn’t choose the international swap because that means I won’t get you or Chelle. 😦
