A Belated Thank You Due to My Attempt at Delayed Gratification

December 17, 2018 by Jenny S Leave a Comment

A lovely package arrived on my doorstep last Tuesday and I wanted to tear it open right away. However, as a community college professor halfway through finals week with a pile of portfolios and final projects to respond to and with a bad case of “Is it break yet?” procrastination looming, I decided to use the gift from Yesknopemaybe as motivation.  Get your Comp 1 grades in, and you can open the box! It worked!  I got the grades in and was delighted to discover […]

Book exchange!!

December 30, 2016 by tillie 1 Comment

Thank you so much to Jelina for all this awesome stuff! Towers of stuff, weird facts about the Czech Republic. CHOCOLATE. And two awesome books that I am looking forward to read. Thank you especially for the little notes about why you like them so much. Makes me look forward to them all the more. Also now I definitely have to sign up for CBR9. Thanks I guess. 😉 (Also I see your creative lettering is already paying off! SO cool!)

Books are the best gifts!

December 18, 2016 by yesknopemaybe 3 Comments

Many thanks to Malin for spoiling me this year. So excited to have a hardcopy of The Hating Game which I read and loved earlier this year (I’m so behind on reviews ya’ll). It’s a book I know I’ll be rereading whenever I need a pick-me-up. Fingersmith and The Princess Bride have been on my to be read list for literally ages so I’m thrilled to get my hands on those for 2017. Thanks again!

Thank you Lauri, this was waiting for me when I got home today. I had just finished battling traffic, made easier by the audio book and then this.  What a lovely surprise. Love! And Livie says thanks for the box.

Mirror Mirror on the wall, who is this dead person and why does she have my face?!

January 13, 2016 by cheerbrarian Leave a Comment

I received this book as one of my CBR Exchange gifts from The Chancellor (thank you!!) and was delighted to receive it.  It has become a nice tradition as I received the first in the series as part of my exchange gift last year.  Whereas it took me about a year to open the first one, this was not the case the second time around, and it was my first book of the new year because I knew what I was in for: compelling and excellent […]

Thank you, Narfna!

December 22, 2015 by badkittyuno 4 Comments

Thank you for the books, Narfna! I’ve had A Clockwork Orange on my TBR list forever but have never gotten around to reading it. And while I’ve never heard of Golden Boy, it sounds exactly like the kind of thing that I’d like. Can’t wait to try these both out!
