The book exchange was the very first redditgifts I participated in years ago, and in my opinion has always been the best. I've always gotten interesting reads, had very considerate gifters, and absolutely love introducing people to books! (That could be the librarian in me, but whatever.)

This time though, my gifter went above and beyond. By some divine fluke she was actually going to be in my hometown for a concert and asked if she could drop it off in person. In all the exchanges I've done, I've never had an opportunity to meet a gifter before, so of course I said yes.

Imagine my surprise when she handed me two big packages to open! I couldn't wait to get them home. She was super nice and is celebrating a birthday soon - so HAPPY BIRTHDAY again! I hope my hometown treats you well on your night out!

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to make an extra large cup of tea and curl up with a good book (or three).
