This brings me to today's post. In an incredibly ironic move reminiscent of The Gift of the Magi (because hey, it's almost Christmas, right?) I am selling off a portion of my personal library to raise funds for this summer's tuition. There is a ton of historical fiction, a smattering of fantasy and some embarrassing glimpses into my teen age years, along with other random goodies. Please take a look at the list below and consider picking out a few books as holiday gifts, to yourself or others or simply a nice addition to your bookshelves anytime of the year! Orders can be placed by emailing me at hallie.m.woods@gmail.com. I'm willing to negotiate on price.
