Happy December! (Wait, didn’t we just have Thanksgiving?) The countdown to Christmas has begun, and BOOKGASM has another big holiday giveaway to help pass the time. Thanks to Hachette Book Group, we’re giving away five full sets of the following five holiday titles:
THE PHYSICS OF CHRISTMAS: FROM THE AERODYNAMICS OF REINDEER TO THE THERMODYNAMICS OF TURKEY by Roger Highfield
THE CHRISTMAS TRAIN by David Baldacci
THE PAPER BAG CHRISTMAS by Kevin Milne
CHRISTMAS AROUND THE WORLD by Chuck Fischer
ENGAGING FATHER CHRISTMAS by Robin Gunn

Here’s what you have to do to be entered in the random drawing:
1. In the comments for this post, let us know the naughtiest thing you’ve done this year that may prevent you from being on Santa’s nice list.
2. After that, e-mail us your answer, along with your name and mailing address. You must be a resident of the U.S. or Canada; no P.O. boxes.

We’ll announce the five winners on Friday, Dec. 5, or you can always just buy them on Amazon.

Suffering from a lack of sleep with a newborn, I made my oldest daughter (5-years-old) cry by shouting at her to be quiet. The look on her face told me all I needed to know about the expression of anger on my face and how much I had scared her. This happened about two months ago and I still get an incredibly large lump in my throat even writing this. Santa, I deserve a lot of coal for that episode.

But I do deserve to win a shitload of books.

I want to spray my boss with pork drippings and feed her to the Abominable Snowman. It’s justifiable homicide, but Santa may not think so.

If I had the books to read, it would probably stop me. On the other hand, if one of them is coffee table gift-book sized…

I have been slacking off at work because I have been reading Bookgasm and the books your guys recommend. Keep up the good work and I will keep doing a crappy job. Thanks!

My daughter-in-law is abrasive and difficult to get along with. It takes a great deal of self control to ignore her behavior. She wasn’t included in the Thanksgiving celbration this year although I had nothing to do with her being ommitted.

One of the offered books is by Robin Gunn.
Her husband married my wife and I 15 years ago this past Nov 20th. I keep getting emails from her website promoting her books. In the 50+ books she has written I’ve bought exactly, zero! Nor have I emailed her back in many years.
I think winning this selection will get my collection started. Also it would give me a good kick in the shins to contact this old friend and let her know how small a world it is for our paths to cross again.

My roommate is a huge Jets fan, and she drives me crazy, so one night in a passive aggressive rage, I had sex on her Jets blanket….
