Santa was extremely kind to me this year as you can see from the pile of books that were waiting for me under the tree. Here's what I received:
- The Behaviour of Moths by Poppy Adams- I have heard many good things about this, I shall probably read this next.
- Forever Amber by Kathleen Winsor- I have wanted to read this for so long, it always seems to appear on lists of must read books.
- Dear Me, A Letter To My Sixteen Year-Old Self edited by Joseph Galliano- my lovely sister bought me this for Christmas and it is lovely, I've been dipping in and out of it, certainly makes a lovely present.
- The Time of My Life by Patrick Swayze and Lisa Niemi- this is the slightly embarrassing acquisition but I am a bit of a Swayze fan so this made it's way on to the wish list!
I managed 64 books in 2009 and I am going to aim for 100 in 2010 so wish me luck!

Have fun with your new gifts, Dot, looking forward to hearing all about them.
Kim- thank you! I've just started The Behaviour of Moths and it's really good! Hope your new year is going well!
Yay -- you had a great bookish Christmas! I'm aiming for 100 books read in 2010, too, so we can encourage each other! hehe
Meg- We shall definitely have to encourage each other, I managed to read more in 2009 then I did in 2009 so I think I am on the right track!
That sounds like a great collection, you were very lucky., I love getting books as presents, I went pretty well this christmas too. Rather than retyping them all, this is the link to my christmas post
