What Books Did You Get for Christmas?
Psalm 73 | 12/25/2017 | Self

Posted on 12/25/2017 8:34:15 AM PST by Psalm 73

Some of us LOVE getting books, especially for Christmas. There's something special about unwrapping a book on Christmas morning - and enjoy sharing with others.

I rarely post anything, (maybe ten articles in 16 years on Free Republic), but thought this would be a good time for book-lovers to share what we received this morning.

Merry Christmas!

That the same book I bought for myself (the e-book version).
I’m about 1/4 say through and so far, it’s the best book I’ve read on the 2016 election.

“New Michael Connelly book Harry Bosch novel”

If you dont have them already, start at the beginning, they’re all good.

The series (three seasons) is on Amazon and isn’t a bad representation.
