Holly's Holiday Haul 2009

The 2009 Holidays were really great. Good family, good food, and good reads! What more can a girl ask for? I wound up with a few books and other things that I am really excited about this holiday season!
The Luxe Box Set
I have heard good things about this series. In all honesty though, what really draws me to this series is the beautiful covers! I really hope they are awesome, as I know have the first 3 books of the series.

Stitches: A Memoir
Moving along with broadening my horizions, I put a lot of graphic novels on my list. Looking forward to this one for sure. It was on a lot of "Best of 2009" lists.

Asterios Polyp
Another graphic novel that is on a lot of the "Best of 2009" lists. I like the colors on the cover. Looking forward to reading this, although the book itself is huge! Going to be hard to lug around all day. Wish me luck.

I am a Genius of Unspeakable Evil and I Want to be Your Class President
This looks like a super fun and breezy read. I plan to give this to my little sister when I am done reading it.

Soulless (The Parasol Protectorate)
Obviously I opened this one early!! I adored every second of this book. You simply must run right out and pick up a copy.

The Elegance of the Hedgehog
I have heard good things about this book. I am in love with french cluture and am excited to see what a french author has to bring to the table that is new and interesting to me. This is next on my TBR list!

Freaks and Geeks - The Complete Series
A non-book gift that I know most of you can appreciate. Brilliant but cancelled, this TV series launched the careers of a lot of industry greats. Apatow is known now for movies like Knocked up, and the stars of this show were in movies like Superbad, and Pineapple Express, to name a few. Check this series out if you haven't yet had the chance.

Please share what you got! Comment or leave a link to your blog in the comments letting me know what you snagged!

I love meeting other Freaks and Geeks! :) Its such a great series. I just watched the episode featuring the "Parisian Leisure Suit" to die for!

Glad to hear good things about Luxe! I might have to bump them up the list a bit!

I swear we have the exact same taste. I've either enjoyed or had my eye on all of these. I saw an exhibit for Asterios Polyp in May and at the time had no idea what it was, now I feel like I should have paid better attention because of the number of times I've seen it mentioned since then!
