Did Santa bring you any books?
Bah, humbug! No, Santa went right over my house without leaving me a single book. Well, okay, I live on the sixth floor of a tall building, and Santa managed to avoid running into it. Do you suppose Santa failed to leave a book because I have no chimney for him to come down? I did, however, give myself books from the library, from the bookstore, and for my Kindle. Does that count? If so, then I did get books.
Oh, wait! I just remembered that I used to BE Santa when my children were little, so all those books DO count after all! Here are some 10/10 books that I recommend you give yourself (in no particular order):
- A Pain in the Tuchis: A Mrs. Kaplan Mystery ~ by Mark Reutlinger, 2015, cozy mystery, 217 pages, 10/10
- The Indigo Girl ~ by Natasha Boyd, 2017, historical fiction (South Carolina), 329 pages, 10/10
- Regarding Anna ~ by Florence Osmund, 2015, fiction, 272 pages, 10/10
- Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah ~ by Richard Bach, 2001, philosophy, 144 pages, 10/10
- Messiah's Handbook: Reminders for the Advanced Soul ~ by Richard Bach, 2004, philosophy, 216 pages, 10/10
- The Virtues of Aging ~ by Jimmy Carter, 1998, memoir, 160 pages, 10/10
- A Charlie Brown Christmas ~ by Charles M. Schulz, 2007, children's book, 128 pages, 10/10
- Educated ~ by Tara Westover, 2018, memoir (Idaho, Utah, England), 336 pages, 10/10

You are such a wise person, Bonnie. I think if we have once been Santa, we are always Santa. So, yes, yes, you got books for Christmas.
Merry Christmas!
We didn't give any presents this year so I had no books under the tree. But you are correct, I'll get myself some books and ensure I get what I want.
