While She Knits - Holiday Gift Edition

FALALALALA LALALALA.

Who else besides me is getting ready to buy the gift that keeps on giving?  Books for the holidays!

What books are you giving as gifts?  And what books for yourself are you sneaking onto to that Amazon order because, well, you have that free shipping anyway, right?

Already gave him Hatchet. :) And my dad borrowed his copy and read it, too, and really liked it.

Well. Glad to know I was on the right track! :)

It's a good book.

Aren't there a couple of other books that come after Hatchet? One of my students (once upon a time when I was a teacher) devoured everything by Paulsen and I keep thinking that he read a few books about Brian. I will look it up and let you know.

ITA about anything written by Jim Murphy. I really don't care for non-fiction, but I had to read a couple of his books for a YA lit course and I quite enjoyed them.

ETA: There are three other books in that series: Brian's Winter, Brian's Return, and Brian's Hunt.

Have you read Harris and Me? Best totally inappropriate Gary Paulson book evar.
