More lovely birthday…

More lovely birthday book presents! I don't think I've ever received so many books for a birthday before -- it's just delightful. And Amazon's slowness makes it all beautifully drawn out, too. A copy of Guilty Pleasures from Jim, making it possible for me to loan out the series again -- my old copy (the first book in the series) having wandered away at some point. And a whole host of Calvino and Nabokov and Carroll from Shannon, *plus* a copy of the video of The Princess Bride (which I have gone an astonishingly long time without owning), from both him and Jenn Whitson, a new sf writer friend in Chicago. Yay!
