fall 2018 ninja book swap
posted by soe 2:31 am

This fall’s Ninja Book Swap presents arrived just as I was leaving on Friday, so I didn’t have a chance to open them until Sunday evening.

Lexie (who I think is Lexie of For the Sake of Reading, based on a review I saw on Goodreads) sent me such lovely things!

Ninja Book Swap Presents

Here We Are: 44 Voices Write, Draw, and Speak about Feminism for the Real World is edited by Kelly Jensen and includes pieces from contributors ranging from Daniel José Older to Mindy Kaling and from Roxane Gay to Brandy Colbert. I look forward to savoring these pieces, particularly as the Kavanaugh fight ratchets up this week. [Have you called your senators lately to ask them to vote against his nomination?]

The Librarian and the Spy, the first in a series by Susan Mann, looks to be a swoony romp, and I think it’s going to be such a fun, lighthearted read.

As you all know, I love tea, and Harney and Sons makes some very fine ones. Lexie says the Tower of London blend is one of her favorites, and I’m looking forward to many hours of drinking tea while reading, particularly now that the weather is finally cooling off again.

Thank you, Lexie! I really love my package! And thank you Ninja Book Swap organizers! This was great fun once again!

Lovely presents. I haven’t tried the Tower of London blend, but Harney makes so many good teas that the odds are in your favor.
