Here is my annual list of books that I received this year for my birthday/Christmas:
The Girl Who Played with Fire, by Stieg Larsson. I have yet to read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, but once I do, I'll have the sequel at the ready.
Introvert Power: Why Your Inner Life is Your Hidden Strength, by Laurie Helgoe. I'm always interested to learn how introverts get along in the world, especially since I'm one of them.
Things I Learned About my Dad in Therapy, edited by Heather Armstrong.
The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie, by Alan Bradley.
Juliet, Naked, by Nick Hornby.
Super Freakonomics: Global Cooling, Patriotic Prostitutes and Why Suicide Bombers Should Buy Life Insurance, by Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner. I loved Freakonomics tremendously - so interesting - so I'm excited for this one, too.
Mothers Who Think: Tales of Real-Life Parenthood, edited by Camille Peri and Kate Moses of Salon.com
Because I Said So: 33 Mothers Write about Children, Sex, Men, Aging, Faith, Race & Themselves, also by Camille Peri and Kate Moses.
A Three Dog Life, by Abigail Thomas.
The Guinea Pig Diaries: My Life as an Experiment, by A.J. Jacobs. I fully enjoyed his first two books, which were big-time experimemts, so I look forward to reading about some of his mini experiments. What a life, right? Just live through experiences and then write about them... nice.
And once again, I have a few B&N gift cards to spend, too. Woo!

Strangely, for as much as I loooove books, no one EVER gives me books as presents. Isn't that strange?
This year though my grandma gave me a gift certificate to B&N. It's burning a hole in my pocket.
Also: Started Jennifer Johnson. Hilar! I'm laughing out loud every other page so far.
You seriously could start your own library.
