I was fortunate to participate in a Holiday Swap hosted by Nicole of Linus’s Blanket. I got to choose books for Rob, a blogger from Hawaii who loves mystery’s. I spent a delightful morning in the book store with his wish list and had so much fun. It turns out the Rob visits the Hinterland every so often. And the other day I received my gift from the lovely Michelle at My Books My Life. She seems to be a pretty eclectic reader so it was fun going over her blog. I will forgive her for being a Michigan fan – I just won’t mention it to youngest. Michelle gave me The Wrong Blood by Manuel de Lope and I am dying to read it. Unfortunately it will have to wait. I need to finish Trespass and then I have two inter-library loan books: Clandestine in Chile and Vilnius poker. Plus my one book group picked Cutting for Stone for our January read. Sigh…but I do love the gift Michele and I hope to sneak in reading it sometime soon. Thank you for your thoughtfulness.

Isn’t it funny how sometimes the books we’re most excited about get pushed to the back when we own them? I’m much better at reading library books than ones off my shelves.
