My Christmas Books

My family knows that I love books so I always receive some for Christmas and this  year I also received a Barns & Noble gift card.

1. The Hidden Scroll by Avraham Anouchi is a fiction that is an archaeological adventure. I am looking forward to reading it soon.

2.The 50 Funniest American Writers according to Andy Borowitz is an anthology of some very funny stories.

3. The Papyrus Ebers translated by Eliot Smith in 1931

4. The Optimist published by The Nevernod Press of Boone Iowa in 1900 is a delightful and eclectic sample of the turn of the last century writers and poets. I just finished reading this one and love it.

  1. All the books you list sound good! I love to read and love finding out what others are reading. I don't think my family much enjoys buying my books though because usually my want list is pretty old stuff that is out of print or some other odd ball title and they have a hard time finding it. LOL

  2. I have to say I am like Nancy I love to read and I am always curious what someone else is reading. That's a nice list. The Hidden Scroll sounds like a really interesting read.

    When I saw The 50 Funniest American Writers, made me think of the books by author Ted Nancy, very funny books

    Thanks for posting your list :)
