The book has arrived!

 SQUEEE! My book arrived this morning *does happy dance*

It was, as predicted, too large to fit in our mailbox with it's 564 pages but they managed to wrap it up even more elaborate than I thought they would XD 

*giggles* I got my book from 'Echo Library <i>1st Class</i>'.... My mind wandered instantly to X-men First Class ^^
... Hopeless, I know. But I didn't think of that until I had the package in my hands. 

The book? Ah, the one I've been mentioning a lot: <b>The Stranger's Child</b> by Alan Hollinghurst.

I know what I'll be reading the next days ^________^
