So last Wednesday my rematch book gift shows at the mailroom at work. I'm lazy and don't bother to pick it up until 6 days later. I take it to my desk and open it to find four books!

Awesome, I think, but then I look to see what I got.

1) Neal Stephenson's not yet released new novel - Seveneves (an advance copy).

2) William Gibsons's latest novel - The Peripheral.

3) Neil Gaiman's latest short story collection - Trigger Warning.

4) Daniel Handler's (a.k.a. Lemony Snicket) new adult novel - We Are Pirates

This is incredible! Three of my favorite authors (Stephenson, Gibson, Gaiman)! I also was a huge fan of ASOUE by Snicket, so I'm pretty excited to read Handler's adult fiction.

But wait, I read the note, can it be? YES! The Handler and the Gibson are signed copies! I'm just in awe. Seeing Gibson's scrawl is just amazing. I'm a huge fan of Gibson and short of meeting the man myself, this is the best thing my Rematch Santa could have done!

Thanks /u/old_custer!
