Bustup isn't on the exchange so far and only the person who gets you sees your address.


Sport poops his pants anytime anyone mentions the R&P book exchange or Houston R&P Meet up. It has less to do with Bustup and more to do with being outed as a fibber.

No Christmas drama allowed.

Only happiness, books, and nerdiness.

Guess which of these posters is him.

I ain't got any dogs in these fights. I'm with swimmy, no drama. Just good Aggie Christmas fun and fellowship.

In the last two weeks, I have read Red Rising, Hard Margic, and I'm seven chapters into Shadow and Claw. After that will be Dune.

Then I will be on hiatus until you people give me more books to read.

I should be cleaning my house for the big tailgate party next weekend, but alas.. one more chapter before I set it down (just like I said two hours ago)

Don't forget to update your wish lists!

Last day to sign up! Draw happens tonight at midnight! I'm so excited!

Just in time, CPH is having a killer sale on books. Esp If you have young ones, the arch books are $5 and $1 and those are great Christian books for lil kiddos.

This is going to be a doubly-secret Santa for lots of people because there aren't a lot of TexAgs usernames on Elfster.

I just picked up the second and third Pieper Dogmatic books for a great price.

One of my clients gave me a gift after her last alterations before her wedding. I told her I was in a religious forum book exchange. She's a Seventh Day Adventist and we had talked a bit about her beliefs, so she got me a book.

Look, when the book comes in the Amazon envelope without wrapping paper, you just open it.

Lol. True.

Wife called and asked me what the heck I was ordering on amazon. I said nothing. I haven't bought anything since baby was born. Apparently my Santa ordered 3 books and they all came in same day. (Thanks santa!)

Once I got home I realized what they may be and stuck them under tree then had to explain the book exchange.

Just checking in because someone should have received something on Friday. I'd like to know it didn't get pilfered off of a front porch or something.

I received a couple last week, Thursday or Friday.

Someone should have received one yesterday (email said attempted but no answer, so hopefully they left a note) with another due today or tomorrow.

I got mine today! The new cookbook from Chef Chris Shepherd "Cook Like a Local". Also a subscription to "Milk Street". I'm pumped! Thanks, secret Santa!

I'm a little worried that this is me. I got a message from Elfster telling me basically this, but there's no sign of a delivery. I'll check with my apartment office tomorrow.

I got Shepherd's book for my birthday, and I really like it! Let us know if any of the recipes really knock it out of the park!

Evidently this was me, but everything showed up. Thanks SoulSlave! All the books in my wishlist were books that people have recommended to me (except for one, which was a passive-aggressive jab at Patrick Rothfuss), so y'all know about as much about these books as I do, but I'm really looking forward to them!

My sant-ee's gifts were delivered today. Haven't gotten confirmation that they were received yet, so fingers crossed.
