Sure why not. I have a reduced budget so I can't promise a huge haul of BOOK but I will do my best to contribute something neat!

As for me, I'd make the same request as last year: Weiiiiiird poo poo

For reference/inspiration, my goodreads

I will be out of town familying for the holidays so will not be able to collect anything that gets sent to me until the new year, so expect a delayed post from me.

You know what isn't delayed, though? The package to my santee, which I have posted today!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have finally been able to pick up my post, and GOODNESS look at the lovely things I received...!


First off, a delicious haul from Tree Goat!




Thank you so much! These all look really freakin' neato, and I'll be reading that short essay you wrote to prime me for getting stuck in.


But wait! That's not all...an extra-secret surprise from :iiam:



Whoa, this looks fancy! But wait...

But WAIT...


Holy poo poo, thank you??!

And the very classy card:





And a secret coooooode? Book Zodiac is still at large...

Thank you both for the gifts, and thank you to everyone else who's participated in the thread - it puts a huge smile on my face to see folks giving and receiving such cool things. :frogbon:

I don't know if the etiquette is to post about it here or not, but here's a code that was pasted in the back of my fancy Jonathan Daniels book:

WS 287-14-9-2
AE 7-7-5-1
WS 108-16-6-5
EH 79-20-4-1
RS 5-4-9-1
LW 646-5-5
EH 128-12-7-6
JD ix-15-3-1


So I'm guessing the letters refer to author names, and thus correspond to each of our bonus books. And then these are page numbers, and...words on those pages?

So for mine it would be (from page ix) - there - back - as. Or if they're first words of lines, then it's any - conflict - as.

Or I'm barking completely up the wrong tree.

I also notice that each secret letter is signed with different initials. Hopefully we lucky recipients can put our heads together to figure this one out!
