Me too!! I nearly bought one but decided against it. Totally regretting that particular life choice right nowI have such FOMO, I’m definitely going to have to do this next year!
I want one tooI treated myself to two Secret Santa's from Bert's Books, I am so nosy and want to know what they are. But equally I like a Christmas Day surprise.
I can't imagine the patience it took to wrap all the gifts and make them look so pretty.

They are wrapped with no Sellotape as well. So clever.
I actually preferred the prequel! I found the characters more likeable.Has anyone read The Book Thief? Years ago, I'd heard glowing recommendations from a few people (one an English teacher), but it's one of those situations where you've seen the film first and don't know if it's worth reading the book as well.
To add: I finished another death-related book last month - The First to Die at the End. It's the prequel to They Both Die at the End. (how cheerful is my tbr!) Got to say, I preferred the latter. The prequel was very much the same book, only longer and more repetitive. There were still elements I liked, but overall I'd recommend just sticking with the first.
Aw, it is too late for this year. I think closing date to join this year was towards the end of November so that he had time to sift through and make sure everyone was sent a book they hadn't purchased from him etc..I want one too. Is it too late to purchase one now?I'm looking on the website and can't find anything secret santa

Charles Lamb and his sister Mary wrote Tales from Shakespeare for children in the 1800s - incidentally was the way my parents introduced me to Shakespeare.Just started reading the tome that is Barbra Streisand's autobiography and hurrah I was hooked immediately!!!
She mentions reading a book by Charles Lamb which pinged a memory of seeing the film The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, and later reading the book.
Who is this Charles Lamb that I have heard tell of so much? Maybe I should add him to my to be read list
I got given this by a secret SantaHalfway through Why Mummy drinks at Christmas by Gill Sims. Easy enjoyable read.
