I have one more place to hit before I send mine off! This is exciting! I have had so much fun looking.

Unfortunately, I have picked up a lot of books for myself in the process (the unfortunate part being I probably can't afford that!)

Ok, so I have a little bit of a dilemma here. I know what my SS wants. I can find it, but I also know what I would like to give her, but the book while a very good book may not pertain to her. So do I go with my gut and get her the book I want to get her, or do I go off of her list and get her the book that she wants? Any advice?

I say go with your gut, unless it is a genre they say they despise.

I agree. I wasn't entirely sure that the book I got for my SS was one that she would absolutly love, but it might give her something else to branch out into. In other words an author/genre that she normally doesn't read.

Ok, well, I have made my decision and my sis is going to get one of the two, but I am not saying anymore than I made my decision. So SIS, I am sorry, but it might go out just a little late as I have to find it because the store was out.

I can't believe that a town the size of the town I'm in doesn't have a Christian bookstore. I have lots of good books that are in excellent condition, but they have been used (by me). I get paid today, so I may go to CBD and order from there.

Abbie- if the book has to be new, I am already in trouble because I sent a used book (by me) to my secret sis. I don't have a Christian bookstore here and I didn't want to have to go the roundabout way of shipping it to my parents and then them shipping the book on. Hope that is okay to my sis

My SS is probably getting a used book, but we did decide way in the beginning that it was ok.

LOL...I bought something and then saw something else I thought might be a better idea! I'm hoping I can exchange the first one I bought (though I could always keep it for myself )

I have bought waaaay too many books this month, all while searching for my SS!

I got my package!!!! A bread machine book, two puzzle books, and a brainteaser book called The Complete Time Waster. Going to stretch my brain!! Thanks, SS!! It says it came from South Carolina, but I'm not sure I trust that after last time. I can't think of anyone in SC off the top of my head, so I'll have to do some research.

Lexie- I know what you meant, but I laugh every time I read the first post on this page - "I have one more place to hit" - it makes me think of a bank robber every time

I haven't received mine yet, but since I am one of the overseas girls, it will probably take several weeks yet (usually takes 3 weeks from the US to where I am).
