This week, with Christmas fast approaching, we are looking at books we want Santa to leave beneath the tree. My husband pretty much asks for a list every year so this will pretty much be an exercise in recollection - can I remember what I asked for???
I think this would be awesome to have and then maybe eventually we can plan road trips to see some of these creepy, haunted locations.
I already ordered this one with Christmas money from Grandpa (yep, total cheating here!)
Of course I am in need of the new illustrated edition.
I'm not sure why I'm so drawn to this book but I would like to have a copy and it does seem perfect for the season.
This made the list before I started seeing mixed reviews so I'm hoping I manage to enjoy it if Santa leaves it for me.
I want to start this series before the television series starts.
I need this so I can finally continue on with the series.
I am determined to start this series in 2018 so I've been trying to add them to my collection.
If you are interested in any of these, clicking on the cover should take you to the Goodreads page.
So what books are you hoping to find under your tree this year???
What a great list - I definitely want that Dicken's book. Hope you're on Santa's good list and get all your books.
ReplyDeleteLynn :D
It's not my normal choice of reading material but something about it spoke to me for some reason.
DeleteI think the illustrated Harry Potter books are on almost everyone's list this week! They really are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYep, I'm seeing them on lists everywhere.
DeleteI hope you get the new illustrated edition too! I got it for my birthday a few weeks ago and it's so wonderful. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure. The other two were awesome as well.
DeleteGreat list, of course now I wonder if you remembered all the books from the list you gave your hubby. 😁
ReplyDeleteHave a merry Christmas! - Katie
Nope, I'm sure I didn't.
DeleteI still haven't tried any of Kevin Hearne's books. Well I did read his Star Wars book a few years ago, but other than that. Hope you get all these!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Greg.
DeleteOoh, I keep meaning to try Kevin Hearne's books, too. Here's hoping you get and enjoy them!
ReplyDeleteChuckles loves them and she talks of Oberon all the time so I'm sure they'll be great.
DeleteThe Harry Potter illustrated edition just looks so good :) Hope you'll find some of these boks under your Christmas tree. Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteThe others are awesome so I'm sure this one is too!
DeleteI'd love to find illustrated edition of Harry Potter underneath my tree :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you do :)
DeleteI like your Santa list! Many of these are on mine too:) Have you been naughty? Or nice? LOL
ReplyDeleteProbably a combination of both - which I consider good. You can't be too boring huh?
DeleteWhat a great list! I bought the first book in the Kevin Hearne series in audio just recently. I haven't read Harry Potter but those illustrated books are very tempting. I hope Santa bring you all of these!
ReplyDeleteI would say "You haven't read Harry Potter?" but I'm sure you get that a lot. I'm not as huge of fan as some. I like them well enough but these illustrated ones are awesome!
DeleteOh thanks for reminding me about the Harry Potter illustrated! They're gorgeous, I didn't know the Prisoner of Azkaban edition was out already!
ReplyDelete~Mogsy @ BiblioSanctum
Yes, I think they release in October each year.
DeleteThe Azkaban illustrated version is gorgeous! I treated myself to that when it came out! And a big yes to the Iron Druid series! You are going to love Oberon!
ReplyDeleteI know I will! Have you grabbed the newest Oberon novella?
DeleteI really need the Dark Tourism book, even though I don't live anywhere near West Virginia, lol😁
ReplyDeleteI went on a haunted ghost tour of our city a few years ago at Halloween and am curious if any end up in the book. Also, my hometown has a "devil baby" in the cemetery that I remember a friend and I sneaking in to see one night when we were in high school. The picture on the tombstone is supposed to glow red at night. We freaked ourselves out before we even looked!
DeleteFun roadtrip, a bit scary, but still fun to do! :)
ReplyDeleteI know. I figure some of them are fairly local.
DeleteOooo, thanks for the tip about that Mr. Dickens book. Hadn't seen that one before. A Christmas Carol is one of my fave books and that cover is very intriguing!
ReplyDeleteI know. I haven't heard a lot about it but I'm anxious to find out.
DeleteI love your list. I hope you get the illustrated HP book. I have it and it is so beautiful. The new Maggie Stiefvater book looks good too. I love her stories. I met her once and she drew a picture of a horse in my copy of The Scorpio Races.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome. I've not read a lot of her books but I did enjoy Shiver (which I think a lot of people don't like).
DeleteThose do look good! Hope Santa is real nice to you :D I love the cover for Mr Dickens.
ReplyDeleteThat cover is done really well - so traditional.
