I have never participated in an exchange, so I had absolutely no idea what to expect. Apparently my Secret Santa either owns or works at a bookstore, and they sent me THREE graphic novels! It blew me away. If I ever find myself in Arkansas I'll have to stop in and give them a hug. And buy them pizza or something. Seriously the gift was fantastic.

They gave me a collection of the years best graphic novels/stories from 2007. Which is a really well done and interesting collection. As well as both volumes of Maus, My Father Bleeds History as well as And Here My Troubles Began. I haven't started reading these yet, but I am very much looking forward to them. I've heard they are an incredible experience.

Honestly I feel like I got the best Secret Santa out of the whole gang, and I'm so glad to have participated. I'm sending my Santa a personal thank you note.
