Holidays on Ice: Stories
4 journalers for this copy...
I found this book in my holiday Mt. TBR and read it very quickly today - its a small book of short stories that have humor and are quite enjoyable. This is the first book I have read by this author and I'm looking forward to trying another in the future.
Since it is the holidays and this is a holiday book, I will be looking for someone to surprise with a RABCK. =)

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
As part of the 2008 Holiday Gift Giving thread, I am sending to SweetSangria who had it on her wishlist. I hope you enjoy!
Thank you so much! I'm looking forward to reading this during the holiday season.
This was a funny little book to read at Christmas time. My favorites were "Santaland diaries" and "Christmas means giving".
Putting into "water" bookbox. I know this is a stretch since I'm sure that's not water in the glass...but ice is a form of water:)
Happy St. Patrick's Day!!
I found this book in sweetsangria's "water" bookbox. Yippee! It's been on my wishlist! It will join the ever growing TBR pile. Thank you dvg and thank you to sweetsangria too!

Hi dvg and sweetsangria,
I am halfway done with this book already and will have it finished by the time I am flying over Chicago later today. I will delete this entry and retype it later tonight when I get home but wanted to get it started, showing today's date, Labor Day. It was the only book with a holiday theme that I had on my bookshelf and thought it was appropriate to read today, a holiday. Hope you both are having a great day, full of family, friends and BBQ's. I am at work, schleping sodas and prezels to the masses of travellers who are not at BBQ's with family & friends either! Poor me!
Ok, here is my updated journal entry-
Oh my gosh, I just love David Sedaris. I was laughing out loud by the second paragraph and continued to laugh all the way thru SantaLand Diaries. The rest of the book was funny too but the first section was my favorite. I still crack up at the line "it breaks my heart to see a grown man dressed as a taco"!
I am reserving this copy of Holidays on Ice for an upcoming bookbox. Thanks again dvg and sweetsangria--this book made my holiday spent at work sans holiday pay much more tolerable!!

I grabbed this out of indygo's Best of BC bookbox. Thanks! :)
Another amusing volume from Sedaris. Sending it along as a holiday giveaway to a dear BC friend who could probably use a chuckle.
