Yesterday Iris from Iris on Books and I were in Stockholm and they have started putting up the Christmas decorations around town and now the Book Blogger Holiday Swap has the sign-ups up for this years exchange.

I've never signed up for the Christmas exchange, but if it is as much fun as the birthday club I am in, I would love to join in.
I'm off to try to sign up!
Here's my Sunday Salon: http://readerbuzz.blogspot.com/2010/11/sunday-salon-war-and-poetry-and.html
I'm listening to the audio of Half the Sky now, and oh my word ... what a powerful book.
And The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks is next on my list!
That's so cool that you and Iris got to hang out!
I'm very much looking forward to enjoying the swap without having to worry about the organisational side this year :P
