Books In The Mail

Dear Me,

There's always a feeling of exhilaration everytime something arrives from the mailman or the parcel delivery boy. Whether it's a snail mail, a card, postcard or a package and even a cargo box, the feeling I experience is utter joy.

This time, it will be a number of books I will be getting from BookMooch. I've been a member since August and I tell you, I've mooched 36 books in total. I have yet to receive 8 books from the mail within the next two (2) weeks. What a great way to welcome the new year! =)

The books I'm expecting to receive are the following:

• Dr. Shapiro's Picture Perfect Weight Loss 30 Day Plan by Howard Shapiro
  
• Turning Japanese: Memoirs of a Sansei by David Mura
  
• Lists to Live By: The Second Collection by Alice Gray
  
• The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown (audio cassette)
  
• Shopaholic Takes Manhattan by Sophie Kinsella
  
• What to Expect the First Year by Arlene Eisenberg
  
• Rapture in Death by J.D. Robb
  
• The Valkyries by Paolo Coelho

Aside from loving to read and collect books of various genre, I have other reasons why I am having the above-mentioned books (explanations correspond to the sequence of books as listed):

1. curious about diet plans and wanna get an idea about the easier way to reduce weight.
   
2. I was told that it's a compelling read.
   
3. I'm a sucker for lists.
   
4. I have read and has a collection of his books. This is an audio cassette, which I am intending to send to my brother overseas.
   
5. In previous post, I am completing her books.
   
6. I'm a first-time mom and baby M is turning three (3) months soon.
   
7. I have a thing for suspense and books about murder.
   
8. Sis likes this author and I'm thinking of collecting his books for her.

Beginning January, I'm on the look-out for Mr. Mailman. =)
