MERRY CHRISTMAS

Posted on Thursday, December 25, 2014 1:20 PM

Merry Christmas to all of you who celebrate from Christy and I. We wanted to veer away from books just so we could do a lovely Christmas post. We wanted to showcase some of the gifts that we got today (although we won't have them all). You know how I said we wanted to veer away from books? Yeah, well most of our gifts are books so that was kind of hard to do.



Here they are:

Erica's Gifts

Everyone, I hope that you all are having a very Merry Christmas and are spending a wonderful time with your loved ones.

My morning has been spectacular. I picked out one of my presents, but my mother surprised me with the other's and for my mom not knowing much about books I have to give her props.


The Book Lover's Journal - as it says personal reading record. I get to record the book that I have read. Keep my TBR in shape and keep track of the books I lend/borrow/give as gifts.


I have been wanting To All The Boys I've Loved Before for some time now and I am so happy that my mom got it for me. Now Dangerous Girls was chosen by me, well honestly it was chosen by Christy (hehe). I asked her for a recommendation in the bookstore and this was hers and I am so so excited to start reading it.

Now for the other gifts that my mother surprised me with that are non-bookish. 








The winter jacket (that I oh so needed for living in Ohio) she got from Forever 21 -pure perfection. Phone case which is absolutely amazing and goes perfectly with my gold IPhone. My coffee cup that I have been wanting before Christmas that she bought while I was standing right there but was so sneaky with the purchase. Thank you to my amazing mother for the wonderful gifts. I can't wait to go back home to see the books Christy sent along with my dad and boyfriend's gift that they have awaiting me.

Christy's Gifts

I hope everyone is having a Merry Christmas and I hope that everyone gets ALL THE BOOKS!

Mine has been great, although I must admit that I was a little disappointed that we didn't get a white Christmas here in Kentucky! It ended up being 66 degrees yesterday and that NEVER happens.

I did get some great presents though, I ended up with a shirt, jewelry, some bath and body works, a few things for the house and my mom gave me $50 for books!

I also got this surprise in the mail from my amazing friend and co-blogger, Erica! I'm so excited to read these.  Thank you, Erica!!



As for the $50?  Here's a few that I'm planning on buying/pre-ordering!



Be sure to leave us a comment and tell us what goodies you got!

Oh. My. Gosh. You ladies got so many lovely gifts! I'm particularly envious of Isla And the Happily Ever After (though I should probably read Lola first!) and Dangerous Girls (Honestly, how have I not read this yet?) BTW Christy, you totally need to pre-order All Fall Down. I finished it a couple weeks ago and SOMEONE CALM MY FANGIRLING HEART. *ahem* You should definitely read it.

I know I am jealous of Christy having Isla - I have yet to even read Anna and I know that I will love the books.

I hope you enjoyed your Christmas, what books, if any, did you get? I wish my Christmas tree was made of new books for me to take down and read whenever I please.

Thank you for stopping by and Happy Holidays.

I love bookish themed gifts! Dangerous Girls is SUCH a great novel. Hope you enjoy it, Eria. And you must get We Were Liars, Christy. I really enjoyed it.

I got a librarian themed tote bag from my sister which is awesome- I'm in grad school to be a librarian.

And I live in KY too! It's weirdly warm today. haha

Dangerous Girls was amazing, I can't wait to see what Erica thinks of it!

I know, right? It just made it feel not Christmas-y.

Whoa, the Book Lover's Journal looks awesome, Erica! I thought To All the Boys was kind of so-so, but I ADORED Dangerous Girls.

Christy, eeep Jeaniene Frost! I need to finish this series and finally read her newer series, The Beautiful Ashes. <33

Merry Christmas, you two!

I was so excited to get the Book Lover's Journal. It helps me keep track of everything. Yes, I love Goodreads, but I think having this will be wonderful. I would highly recommend it!! I have heard mix reviews over To All the Boys... I'm hoping I like it :)

Merry Christmas to you, I hope you had a wonderful day! Thanks for stopping by.
I hope you had an amazing Christmas! I received a pre-order of All Fall Down for Christmas, too. I love Carter's Gallagher Girls and Heist Society series, so I'm sure All Fall Down will be amazing :) Also, that mug is so cute!
