It’s 2012!!!!! *throws confetti* Another year gone. I hope you all made your goals and did important things. Like stop world hunger and stuff. Me, I went well over my goal of reading 100 books – I made it to 153! Hurray! What? I recycled too!

Here’s what I got for review (click on cover for Goodreads):

 I want to thank HBG Canada, Feiwel & Friends and Simon & Schuster for the review copies.

I have bought:
Me and a few other bloggers are having a super secret special monthly event for which I needed this awesome Zombie Vs. Unicorns short story book. Stay tuned!
I was gifted:
From Lucy over at Moonlight Gleam I received awesome swag in that lovely Christmas card. And from Samual of Books For All Seasons I got this wonderful (and pink!) Christmas card. Thanks so much you’re both sweethearts! <3
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I hope you all have a fabulous year in 2012!

What did you get to start the new year?
Link me up and I’ll be sure to visit! =)

Yep, it’s Christmas and I’m posting an IMM. I figured I’d scheduled this post for anyone who is actually online. And thus will give you something to read! I won’t be online today much but I’ll surely pop in & out of twitter from my faithful Blackberry once in a while. I will catch up with all y’all’s IMMs when I’m back and pooped from eating so much.This week I got for review:

How’s it going this week? I just got back from the Santa Claus parade which was great and my son loved it – it was his first time seeing it. We had wonderful weather for it too. What else is new!? I went to see Breaking Dawn! I found a few parts very cheesy but all in all I really enjoyed it. I think my favorite is still Eclipse though (which is funny because it was my least favorite of the books).I hope you guys are all happy with your haul this week. I didn’t buy any books since we’re saving up for the holidays, but…

How are my lovelies this week? We’re starting to see Christmas lights going up and it’s getting me in the holiday mood!

It’s all so magical to them. I Love it!Enough with the rambling, let’s see what books I got =)(Click on images for Goodreads) I…

How is everyone on this long weekend (at least for Canadians)? We just celebrated my father’s 60th yesterday. Had a family gathering with some yummy Acadian fricot- If you don’t know what fricot is, you’re missing on some awesome grubs! Also, I just realized the next long weekend will be Christmas! Anyone have their tree up already? So, what have we got here… books! *cheer* I have gotten for review (click on cover for Goodreads):
