Birgit from The Book Garden sent me a parcel with tons of lovely goodies, books and souvenirs from her recent trip to the US. I enjoyed every single one of them (and carry around a couple in my purse) – thank you, Birgit!
I got as a gift
It is cozy time again! Birgit sent me two books in the Booktown Mystery series
- Murder is binding by Lorna Barrett
- Chapter & Hearse by Lorna Barrett


and there is more…
- Dying in style by Elaine Viets – Josie Marcus Mystery Shopper series
- Murder Unleashed by Elaine Viets – a dead-end job mystery
I have never heard of those before, but they sound quite nice and entertaining.


What was in YOUR mailbox recently?

Nice! How lovely that Birgit sent you a parcel! I must make sure she has my address, too.
Cozy mysteries are just up your street- enjoy them.

Yes, Birgit is very nice. You better send her your address, too. if she hasn’t got it already,
I do have Judith’s e-mail addy but how to squeeze a whole parcel through the web?
Birgit’s last post ..Pajama Musings – Thou shalt not judge… the aftermath!
I’ll need one of those fancy new printers, Birgit, that can print objects. Then you send me whatever you like and it comes out in one piece.
Actually, a Twitter thing here in the Netherlands lets people sign up for a Secret Santa where they send each other links of objects they fancy. I.e., if I fancy a Ferrari, if you were my Secret Santa, you would send me the link to one on the internet and wish me a happy Christmas. Fun idea, but silly too!

I’m so happy you enjoy the whole content of your parcel! And those cozy reads are perfect for the cold season wouldn’t you agree?

Ahhh, Birgit is indeed the perfect Santa

As for books, nothing in my mail, but I have ordered a second hand album with photos of Venice at night which should arrive next week

I can’t wait to get Little Women and Alcott’s Christmas Stories this week (hopefully, though never trust the mail system). My parents paid for them so, strictly they are a gift and that adds to their value.
What bookish goodies did you get? I love them all, tend to collect bookmarks and stickers
