Booksgiving. An experiment.

in awkwarding brings us together, FURIOUSLY HAPPY, I am totally overrated

Last September when Furiously Happy came out I was so terrified that people wouldn’t like it, wouldn’t understand it, or would run away after realizing I’m quite a bit crazier than I ever let on.  But you stayed – for the most part – and then even more of you showed up, and now it’s February and Furiously Happy is still on the top 20 NYT list.  This is because of you.  You share quotes, and pictures of yourself reading it, and tell others that it helped and pass it on to people who you think will need it to understand you or to better understand themselves.  Every day I see people online sharing it and it makes such a difference to me and to the people who every day discover that they are so much less alone than they thought.bookplateforfuriouslyhappy

As a thank you I’d like to give you all a box full of live kittens but I don’t have that many kittens or boxes and also I don’t have your address, so instead today I’m giving out copies of Furiously Happy to people who haven’t been able to afford a copy.  If you’re struggling right now and you need a copy just make a wishlist with Furiously Happy on it.  Or if you have Furiously Happy but need someone to buy you another book to get you through a rough time then make a wish list with that book on it.  A book you loved as a kid.  A book to calm you, or revive you, or to read to children.

rory furiouslyhappyI’m going to give out 30 copies of my book.  If you need one I’m going to tell you how to do it.  And every time I do this sort of thing others want to get involved and help so if you want to give books to someone in need you can click on the wish lists in the comments section and send hope and stories and escape to lovely strangers.

Will this work?  No idea.  But let’s try.

Here are the rules:

  1.  If you’re in a rough place and need a book to transport you somewhere else make a BRAND NEW wish list with nothing on it but the book you want.  (Exception: If you have a kid who needs a book you can add that too.)
  2. Here’s how you make a wish list:  Under “Your Lists” on the right, top side of Amazon select “Create a list”.  Choose “Wish list” and name it something like “The book I really need right now” and choose “Public”.  Then click “Create list”.  Now add a book to your list by going to the book and clicking the “add to list” button on the bottom right.  Now here’s the most important thing that everyone forgets to do.  You have to assign a shipping address to that specific wish list or it won’t go to you.  So click on the wish list and click on “public” and it’ll take you to “List settings”.  Click “view details” and where it says “shipping address” add yours.  (Your city will be shown to others but not your full address.)  Then save changes.  Now leave a comment with a link to your wish list.  Click here for my sample wish list so you’ll know what one looks like.  I have about 20 books listed on it for inspiration if you don’t know exactly what you want.  In your comment say which book you want in case someone specifically wants to buy you that book.  Feel happy.
  3. Here’s how you buy a book for a stranger.  Click on their link.  Choose a book.  Select their name so it goes to their address.  If it doesn’t give you the option of picking their name it means they didn’t add a shipping address so delete what’s in your cart and go to the next person.  Send a story to someone in need.  Feel happy.

The only rule is that this is just for books.  No gift cards or clothes or anything else because it gets out of hand really quickly.  Just a simple book to take you away from the world and help you find new ones.

And as always, thank you.  Thank you for supporting my words and listening and passing them on to others.  I’m hesitantly starting book 3 right now and you’re giving me strength to keep writing even when I doubt myself.  I owe you one.  Or 30.

UPDATED: Here are screen shots of what you should see while making a wishlist and add a shipping destination because it’s really easy to mess up.

Create a list under “Your lists”.

Screen Shot 2016-02-02 at 1.39.39 PM

Make it a wish list, name it and make it public.

Screen Shot 2016-02-02 at 1.40.30 PM

After you click “create list” click on the “public” button below:

Screen Shot 2016-02-02 at 1.40.53 PM

Click “view details” to add your shipping address to this wish list:

Screen Shot 2016-02-02 at 1.41.27 PM

Choose a shipping address and save changes.

Screen Shot 2016-02-02 at 1.43.02 PM

Now you’re ready to add something to your list.  Pick a book and choose the “add to list” button on bottom right side:

Screen Shot 2016-02-02 at 1.44.32 PM

If you have another wish list set as your default then you’ll need to click “move to another list.”

Screen Shot 2016-02-02 at 1.44.57 PM

Just click the list you’re going to share here.

Screen Shot 2016-02-02 at 1.45.28 PM

Now go to the wish list and copy the link and paste it into the comments.  That should work.  There might be a better way of doing it but that’s how I do it.

PS.  If you click on a wish list that says it’s empty that’s because the book has been bought for them.  🙂  If you leave a comment and don’t see it that’s because my blog puts people into moderation for a bit so I have to approve the comments and sometimes it takes me a minute.  It’ll show up.

PPS.  In the time it’s taken for me to write all of this a ton of books have been sent out to strangers (I prefer the term “strangelings”) on the internet and I haven’t even started giving away my own portion.  Thank you.  For asking and for giving.

PPPS.  It’s 10:30pm Texas time and when I try to buy people books it gives me an error message during checkout.  I’m just going to assume we broke amazon with our awesomeness.  If you get error messages too just try again in a bit.  Also, a ton of books have been sent out all over the world so you might have to search a lot to find a wish list that hasn’t been filled.  Keep looking though if you want to help.  New comments are approved every 15 minutes (until I go to sleep, at least) and they’re still coming in.

UPDATED, DAY 2:  Technically yesterday was Booksgiving but Amazon crashed for like 4 hours yesterday so I say we keep going today.  Besides, it’s a leap year so we get an extra day this month anyway.  Might as well use it for good.

Also, are you reading these comments?  Because you should be…

I love you guys.  Off to buy more books…

  2. I love this idea. I already have your book and have more books than I will ever be able to read, so I’m looking forward to seeing what other people have on their book list.

  4. I got one from your last giveaway, and I cannot thank you enough! On days when I feel like I’m so far in the dark, your book has been a little bit of light helping me find my way out.

  6. Great idea. I love gifting books.
    PS I quoted Furiously Happy TWICE in my holiday letter, even footnoting for attribution.

  7. I just want to say this makes me so happy! Books are truly the gift that keeps on giving. For more than a year now, I have been sending my little sister (age 11) a book every month just to keep her reading and thinking. I look forward to sending someone else a book this month too.

  11. I have the skeleton vulture on my wish list. Just saying.

    BTW I bought a copy of your book for me and one for someone who needed it. 🙂

  12. Keep writing and we will keep reading (and loving). I would say something more relevant and motivational, but I have a bad case of the blahs.

    Love Booksgiving. Super duper awesome.

  13. Oooh, I can’t wait to start buying books for people! I LOVE THIS! (And you. And really, I’d love a box of kittens except that then I’d need a lot more litter boxes, and I can’t deal with the two I already have, so thank you for not sending me those.)

  15. I bought both your books for my adult daughter (she has Epilepsy and and suffers from anxiety). We’ve shared favorite passages, shed tears together over things you wrote that we both identify with to our core. For anyone who loves to laugh, has darkness inside that they are fighting, or simply needs to be uplifted, I can’t think of a better gift.

  17. Thank you, Jenny for a reminder that there are good people in the world. Even when it’s so very dark in mine.

  18. I could use a copy of Furiously Happy, Jenny. <3

    (Leave a link to your wish list, sweetness. ~ Jenny)

  19. I put yours and one other for me, and a few of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books for my son, who recently begged me to just please BUY a couple of those so he could keep them instead of us always getting all our books from the library. 🙁

    Single struggling mom here, like many of you. If you just pick one, pick one of my kid’s books. Thanks for thinking of me.

    https://amzn.com/w/1FT7MF65UCQMK

  20. This is awesome and I’m on board (happy, delighted, ecstatic, etc!) to buy a book for someone. 😀

  21. I hope I’ve done this right – I didn’t see anyplace to designate a shipping address, but here it is. http://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/3P5VQ7QZPL88D/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_ws_UtqSwbA718FJ5

    (Try this. Right now you don’t have a shipping address so if I bought it it would just go to me. You have to assign a shipping address to that specific wish list or it won’t go to you. So click on the wish list and click on “public” and it’ll take you to “List settings”. Click “view details” and where it says “shipping address” add yours. ~Jenny)

  22. As I have already received your book due to your (and others’) generosity when finances wouldn’t allow me to buy it (and still won’t, really), and I have a plethora of other books I can read, I will refrain from creating a list, but I wanted to -endorse- this idea. I think it’s a lovely one and I can’t wait to see how it all pans out.

    I wanted to say, too, that I’m still in the process of reading Furiously Happy. I feel like an Ent of the book world: “We only say[read] anything unless it is worth taking a long time to say[read].”

    In my darkest moments, I turn to Furiously Happy, read a few pages, giggle, cry, clap or whatever happens naturally depending on what I’m reading. This is how I am reading it. And once I read through it, I will likely go back and re-read it. 🙂

  24. someone here can explain me please is that I am new to this and do not understand almost nothing
    please if anyone knows and can help me Please

    (Check the update. ~ Jenny)

  25. You’re a wonderful, non-zombie mammal, Jenny.
    This is a phenomenal, caring, remarkably-decent idea.

    Book 3, h’uh?
    I can’t even get one book published!
    But I’m (furiously) happy for you and all you’ve accomplished.

  26. You are one of my heros in life. Thank you for making such a difference in my life. I really appreciate your courage and willingness to share your humanness.

  27. Yes!
    My book club is going through Let’s Pretend This Never Happened this month, and I fully intend to heartily recommend Furiously Happy to the people who “get” it. You are wonderful, and this idea is fantastic.

  29. Yay Jenny! I love when you do these things and will try to come back in a day or two and buy someone a book!

    Also, I’m thinking about my very first tattoo for my 40th birthday this month. First thought was “Pretend you’re good at it”, then thought “Rory! It would confuse everyone!” but I just can’t decide what to do. It will be small, on the inside of my wrist. Any suggestions anyone??

  30. You know what I love about you? In every post, I feel like you and I would be biffles in another world. But then, that’s kind of what you want me to believe, isn’t it? =)

  31. I give my little twin nieces, now nine, books for their birthdays every year, just as my own daughters received. Nothing more valuable than good books! Love this idea!

  33. You should come to Alaska for a book signing! We like to taxidermy animals like you would not believe here, think of all the treasures you could potential take home. And there’s bears, and moose! Which may kill you so, yeah maybe not, stay indoors when in Alaska! That’s it, and oh, come during the summer, winters suck.

  34. I’m way ahead of you. 🙂 I love this book so much, I have the e-version and the paper version, and I’ve gifted both of your books to two of my closest friends. So I’ll pass on this contest in order to give some other lucky people the chance to win this. Jenny, your book makes me laugh when I need it, cry when I need to, and it always helps me — I read it when I need to know I’m better than I want to believe I am, and more importantly, that I am not alone. P.S. About wishing you could send kittens, I’m highly allergic to kittens, but it’s the thought that counts. 😉

  36. I put together a wish list for my son. We are struggling right now, behind on medical bills due to his asthma issues hes had since birth. While I’d love my own copy of Furiously Happy, I would love more for him to have something to make him furiously happy.
    this blog reminds me of all the good there is in the world. and I promise, when we are on our feet again, to return all the good I can.

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2P4P33OC22ZE9/ref=topnav_lists_1

  37. I read your book over Christmas and it totally got me through the holidays with the family. So, so perfect for anyone who needs to get through a crazy or rough time! This is an excellent thing

  38. I already have Furiously Happy and adore that book! You need to write more! Much much more!

    I would love another book to transport me away from bills (ahh! Bills!), winter, and the general ick of life right now. https://amzn.com/w/2RCESGYG22FFB

  40. I bought your book for someone I thought needed it. I did it anonymously because I didn’t want them to feel bad about it or like they needed to pay me back, which was great except that I can’t go ask them what they thought : )

  42. A friend did this for me. With Furiously Happy even. If I could, I would definitely pay it forward. :^)

  45. This is probably going to make me cry like the James Garfield Miracle but I’m in for providing some books. Books are my favorite and sharing them with others is one of the best things!

  47. For anyone trying to overcome childhood trauma at the expense of their parents, may I suggest Toxic Parents: Overcoming Their Hurtful Legacy and Reclaiming Your Life? I found out about it via RuPaul, of all people! I don’t have the money to grant anyone a book, but I can give you the pdf so you can still read it for free. It was a tremendous help to me and I hope it will help someone here, too. <3

  51. I love this idea and can’t wait to find someone to gift a book too. Love your books but I have two small requests – keep being the narrator of your audio books. You are hands down one of my favorite narrators. Two – Please come to Indiana on your book tour…..

  52. I’ve sent a few out now, and much like the Miracle of James Garfield, it always perks up my day. Thanks for being the pivot point for all of us to reach out to each other!

  55. Thank you for spreading goodwill. Especially in the form of books.

    Two days ago, I had my first ambulance ride and among other things lost total control of all my bodily fluids for a few hours. I know there is comedic gold in my experience, but for now all I want to do is hide under the bedcovers with a book.

    (Get some rest. A book is headed your way. ~ Jenny)

  56. Could use some distraction..Our family is going through a tragedy. This is such a great way to reach out to others. Would be very curious to see how others deal with death, anxiety and sleep deprivation

    https://amzn.com/w/3ED7SYXPT113K

  63. This is a great idea. I’m not in a rough place and work somewhere where I am surrounded by free books. but I will pass this on and look at the wish lists to see if I can help. Also, I would like one of those miniature giraffes from the directv commercials. Can you help with that?

  64. I would love a copy of Furiously Happy. I have been struggling with a psychosis because of a steroid they gave me on Christmas Day to treat my asthma. It’s been a month of hallucinations and delusions and none are the fun kind… All this to say, as I don’t want to make this a SOB story, this would make my February. Many thanks, and this is a great and fun idea, Jenny.

    (For some reason I can’t order from Amazon Canada because Canada hates me or something. Putting a note here if there are Canadian people who use Amazon.ca. ~ Jenny)

  66. Unemployed teacher here … unemployed due to mental health issues leaving me unreliable to do a job I love … kinda sorta sucks, but I’m pushing hard through this bout of depression.
    I haven’t read your book yet …. or had access to the dialectal behavior therapy exercises employment (and health insurance) covered, so there are two books in there. I’d also love a book recommendation if ANYONE could help – I’m going to be raising a step-daughter whose mom will have passed from cancer … I don’t even know WHERE to start searching for that book!

    If you mail something, please include a return address (can you?) so I can mail a real thank you card (I love to send mail). <3 ~Sarah http://www.eleventhstreetlot.com

  68. I’m on my THIRD listen (in a row) of “Furiously Happy” on audiobook! I’m grateful for “pretend you’re good at it” because I can’t imagine not hearing your voice reading your book.

  69. I don’t know if this worked the first time. but here goes.

    http://amzn.com/w/2P4P33OC22ZE9

    I would love to be able to give my son a Diary of a Wimpy kid book. we are struggling right now, medical bills upon medical bills due to his multiple hospitalizations due to his asthma. id love a copy of furiously happy, but would rather see him furiously happy with this book.

    this blog gives me hope for the good in the world. I promise to return the good when we are back on our feet.

  73. This would be so great! I sold all but a few books when I moved from KC to NOLA and would love to have a copy of “Furiously Happy” to place next to “Let’s Pretend This Never Happened”! My bookshelf and I would be so grateful! It’s been a very rough year and your tweets and blog posts have helped remind me how important it is to stay connected to our friends. Or even with strangers! But just to reach out and remember we’re not alone.

    (You had the paperback on your wish list but it doesn’t come out until September so I sent you the hardcover instead. ~ Jenny)

  74. I happened across your book in the library and enjoyed reading it in a very sad way. Many of your statements on pages 57-58 -132 -133 -134-135 were especially powerful. Could have been written by my beautiful and brilliant 22 year old daughter. I know she was able to help many people….they told me so. However she could not help herself. Finally lost the on going battle with depression and ended her own life just a few months ago. I know she did not intend to emotionally end her parents life as well. I can see by your book that my daughter realized that she was facing a continuous battle that maybe she just got tired of. While going to college she had also worked at a mental health center……maybe was taking on too many additional problems. Don’t know……. but miss her terribly

  75. I’ve been anxiously awaiting having the extra money to buy this book! I discovered your Let’s Pretend This Never Happened and lent it out so much that it certainly looks tired and worn, which is my favorite way to see a book! Also, as a high school teacher, I have bought Kindle copies of this book for former students who I KNEW would totally relate! They have loved it!

  77. This makes me beyond happy. Thank you for being you, for your words, and for helping others.
    To hear you are starting book three fills me with joy, not just because ANOTHER BOOK but because it is my dream to attend a book signing and meet you. I was going to go to Portland this past tour and the Saturday before lost my beloved dog. I wasn’t up to travel even though I knew it probably would have helped to be around others who adore you and to finally meet you. So please tour again, and thank you. Just thank you.

  79. I think I’ve done this correctly to create my shopping wish list. Here’s the link: Books I need right now to make me furiously happy Link: https://amzn.com/w/3A2RBASHBQTTK
    It’s on my mom’s amazon account, so it probably says “Linda Smith”, but I put in my information for “Lorin Smith”. Sometimes I’m technically challenged and sometimes I’m not. Reading your blog and your first book always makes me happy. A box of kittens would make me happy too, but they don’t ship well. 🙂

  80. This is a fantastic idea, and as someone who is low on cash and in a down slope right now I really appreciate this! The book I could really use right now is Let’s Pretend This Never Happened, as I am set to finish Furiously Happy today and it’s been giving me some much needed laughs. Thank you!

  85. My niece needs this book. We keep telling her it gets better. But she’s having a tough time believing us. I have the kinks version and she can’t have doctrines in the hospital. So… Here’s to hoping.
    The book my niece desperately needs right now

  86. Making a new wish list with your book. The last book was one of the best things I’ve ever read. I’ve shared my copy dozens of times. If I get the new one, I plan to do the same thing. I would love to be able to buy it but I just can’t right now. Thanks for considering me

  87. Can I buy someone a book and then we can swap books and we can be friends and hey, do you need a friend today? Because I am so ready to be someone’s friend today.

  89. I wish I had the money to buy books for others. I’ve had struggles with depression in the past and Jenny’s first book really helped. Lately I’ve been feeling a bit lost again, but haven’t had the money to read her new one. There are a lot of people more deserving of books, so please, start with them. But if you make it through the list wanting to give and there’s nobody left, then here’s mine. Hopefully next year I can pay it forward. Thank you in advance

  92. Feeling alone lately. I’ve been struggling with some inner issues and trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. I love to read and it helps get out of my headspace when it’s just too much to deal with. Thank you for doing this, I love reading your blog!

    https://amzn.com/w/TYOWKOQAT2ZF

  94. I gave out 8 because i thought it was a nice way to share part of.me under that old rouse of ‘I have this friend who….’ I lurve booksgiving

  95. You are my hero, Jenny. In medical school and I’ve always struggled with depression and anxiety… The struggle is so bad sometimes. Love you and your blog. You have gotten me through some of the darkest times.

  100. Amanda Palmer did this with her Art of Asking (appropriate, no?), using the Mosaic website. That was SO much fun—I met quite a few people in both the giving and getting. I’m covered on both ends with Furiously Happy—I gave it to my aunt for Xmas, and my parents gave it to me. My aunt and I were trading bits from the book over the dinner table the other night and laughing so hystericall, the rest of the family was scooching their chairs away from us…

  103. Ive tried posting this now 3 times so if it is a repeat, please delete.
    I was able to borrow your newest book from the library and all I can say is your work is made of gold. I am so happy to see that someone else feels and lives the same way as me. I suffer from major depression and my ex left me for another 6 months ago. Times have been really tough, not just emotionally but financially too. I love your writing and knowing that its ok to be sad and feel anxiety as it wont always take over your life.
    We are a weird bunch of broken pieces that fit together to make one strange puzzle.
    Thank you for your books Jenny. They mean the world to me.

  104. Happy Booksgiving! I am a graduate student right now and I need all the help I can get. Some days are pretty dark and I can’t find my way out of my own writing. But I press on. I have to keep thinking that I’ll make it, that I’ll get my thesis done. I love what I’m writing. I even think it’s an important topic, but it’s still hard. Sometimes I think at the end of the day – maybe tomorrow will be better, maybe you’ll have a breakthrough. But also maybe you’re just delusional. But the delusion helps because it gives hope to keep going. I put on my wish list two of your books Jen, because I could use some laughter as well as some courage to write what I know to be true. What I know should be written.
    I also added a 3rd book for children — young adults, a YA novel. It is by one of my favorite authors and actually one of my old professors from undergrad days. The book I chose is a book about an orphan boy who goes through some real life hardships. I added this because I work with kids who experience these things, who know hard break and I’d like to be able to share stories with them. Thank you! And Happy Booksgiving to everyone! Sharing stories is the best.

  105. You are such a great writer, borrowed a copy from a friend, but would love to reread my very own copy as many times as I need it. I’m so glad that you are brave enough to share your life with us! Can’t wait for book 3!

  106. My mom has had it pretty tough for the last 10 years or more. i have lent her your books in hopes that she will recognize her own depression/mental illness and realize she is not alone, but I do think she should have her own copies. She is 56 years old, and clearly has some mental illness happening, but won’t admit that it’s a medical problem- partly because she doesn’t have any health insurance I’d guess. We love her very much and hate to see her struggle. Slowly but surely, she continues to plug on in her day to day things. Like we do.

    She does have a blog where she talks about things in a vague sense, and if you’d like to send her some love, hop over to http://snaggedt.blogspot.com/

    Here is a link to a wishlist of books she needs, but doesn’t realize it https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/giftlist/2CTFX80I0SCUW/ref=cm_go_nav_recip_gl?

  107. I sure hope this works. Here is my link…..https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=XTY901XRUK2T&type=wishlist. I found you during one of my darkest major depressive episodes to date in mid 2015. I read Lets Pretend This Never Happened and I actually SMILED. A real honest to goodness smile. I have Furiously Happy on audio book but I would love to have a copy I can actually hold in my hand and mark the pages and feel.

    Thank you Jenny for bringing a little bit of light into the darkest corners of my world.

  112. I do not need a copy as I bought it for myself for Christmas as well as copies for 3 friends going through a hard time right now. However, the book plate I had been holding onto for months until I could afford to buy the book was thrown away by mistake. I would LOVE another book plate if you are able.

  117. I was able to borrow the first and second book from a friend and I LOVED them both. I would love to be able to access them anytime I need them because these books are gold and it’s great to have other people that feel the same way I do.

    http://amzn.com/w/63XPH9A4ICJ6

  120. shuffles over and nudges link forward I really want Jenny’s book. I bought a copy, but gave it to my best friend because I thought she might need it more than me. But I’d really like a copy of my own to laugh at and feel understood by. I’m an out of work actor (and even when i am working, I don’t make very much) and with help am just barely getting by as it is. I haven’t gotten a new book that I get to keep (I frequent the library because I can’t live without books, just without keeping them) in quite a while. Summer maybe? Anyway, I’d be very grateful if anyone felt like helping me. 🙂

    https://amzn.com/w/CDR06XGV72U8

  121. Hiya 🙂
    I’ve been a follower of yours on facebook for a couple years. I have anxiety and depression and I could stand to learn about being furiously happy 😛 Also I put a book by a naturopathic doctor I really respect on my list, because I’ve got fibro and chronic fatigue and I really need to figure out how to get better. I’m not doing well.
    https://amzn.com/w/C43FV713PJ2W

    thank you so much! This is a wonderful idea and thank you to anyone who might help me.

  125. This is such an amazing idea! I want to be able to click on someones list and purchase for someone else, but I am unfortunately at the mercy of someone clicking my link and purchasing for me right now. I have saved this link so that when I am not in such a tight spot, maybe there will be someone else who I can purchase for..

    https://amzn.com/w/26MG8H64FGXW2

  126. Okay, I’m going to get this right now. Here’s my link and my reasons for putting it together: https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=2CG59FMPG4ECZ&type=wishlist

    Happy Booksgiving! I am a graduate student right now and I need all the help I can get. Some days are pretty dark and I can’t find my way out of my own writing. But I press on. I have to keep thinking that I’ll make it, that I’ll get my thesis done. I love what I’m writing. I even think it’s an important topic, but it’s still hard. Sometimes I think at the end of the day – maybe tomorrow will be better, maybe you’ll have a breakthrough. But also maybe you’re just delusional. But the delusion helps because it gives hope to keep going. I put on my wish list two of your books Jen, because I could use some laughter as well as some courage to write what I know to be true. What I know should be written.
    I also added a 3rd book for children — young adults, a YA novel. It is by one of my favorite authors and actually one of my old professors from undergrad days. The book I chose is a book about an orphan boy who goes through some real life hardships. I added this because I work with kids who experience these things, who know hard break and I’d like to be able to share stories with them. Thank you! And Happy Booksgiving to everyone! Sharing stories is the best.

  128. I checked out a digital copy of furiously happy from my library (loved it!) and I’m currently waiting on the audiobook. (14 people ahead of me!!!! I don’t know whether to pout or be happy that there are so many around me that want to listen to your book, too!) I do not have my own hard copy. I do have a signed bookplate which I would love to put inside it- It would mean the world to me!!!! If there is someone who wants it and has not read it, please pick them first. I have read it, but I just would like my own copy that does not have to be returned to the library. 🙂

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_wl_edit_brc?ie=UTF8&id=RGZL8L8F10J6&type=wishlist

  129. My birthday is tomorrow, this would certainly brighten it up. Thank you for doing this! And please know that I’ll pay it forward as soon as I am able! (If I posted this twice I apologize, technology isn’t always my friend!) https://amzn.com/w/160MAIPQI1WGZ

  131. I’ve been going through a rather unfun rough patch with my depression/anxiety lately. I could really use some cheering up. But if there’s someone else worse off, please pick them instead. As it is, I feel rather bad for asking for anyone to consider doing https://amzn.com/w/120G5J4WO17UQ

  132. I’m a stay at home mom who just got a job at night to try to pay for my husbands medical bills but they just keep coming! It feels never-ending.

    I checked your books out from the library on a whim last year and it was EXACTLY what I needed to read. I felt like I wasn’t alone and they helped me accept myself more than I ever have. I’ve been following your blog ever since the day I started reading your book. You are so wonderful <3 I hope I can meet you on a book tour one day. You came to my state just a couple of weeks before I found the books.

    http://amzn.com/w/I213FY9QQAQW

  134. Jenny, I don’t know if you saw it, but I sent you a message on Facebook to tell you how Furiously Happy just got me through a hard time. My daughter (age 13) and I had to fly back to Nebraska because her dad was in the final stages of cancer. I read your book on the plane and I can’t even express how much it helped me. It gave me strength, and it made me laugh. I even shared some of the stories with my daughter and it was so good to see her laughing too.

    He passed away on December 29th, just hours after our plane landed. I’ve had a hard time finding books to help her cope. Most of them are for younger kids, or for kids whose parents are still alive and going through treatment. She did get a book of poems and essays through an organization called Kids Konnected, and she’s buried herself in fanfic through Wattpad to keep her mind occupied. I’d like to get her one of these two books: https://amzn.com/w/2NK19NZSJMFRV

    Also, if anyone has been through a similar experience and can recommend other books, I would really appreciate that too.

  135. A few unexpected life changes (move and death of a good friend, a mom of 3) have put me in a lonely place lately. I’ve always been a blog fan but never read your books. Fortunately our library has Furiously Happy, so it’s on my list of things to borrow, but a copy of my own to share with someone else who needs it when I’m done would be even better.

    Here is my amazon link…in case I’d get picked :)..
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ls/?ie=UTF8&lid=18BWS52HL2RPZ

    (I can’t get your shipping address. Can you add it? ~ Jenny)

  137. Wish I could reply to a comment but in lieu of that @rockandrollmama – 2 for your son and 1 for you are on the way. ENJOY! and thank you Jenny & Nina for making my day brighter. I loved doing this – brought me as much joy as buying one for myself – likely more. Nina – I couldn’t find which Diary of a Wimpy Kid one your sone would like on the wishlist so I chose Book 10 – Here’s hoping your son hasn’t read it yet (and it was easy to buy – that or shipping costs – gotta love it lol! got the shipping free 😀 ) <3

  141. I’ve gone to a couple of peoples list and there is nothing there. You have to put the book in your list. Or maybe someone already got it for you. There is someone who wanted books for her son. Please update your list. I would like to help. Thank you so much Jenny for your always wonderful books and your incredible generosity to others.

    (The lists that have nothing on them are people who’ve already had their books bought for them. 🙂 I’m seeing so many wish lists already fulfilled as I pop around buying books myself. I love you people. ~ Jenny)

  142. oh for Pete’s sake – I can’t type to save my life today ;-p son not sone and now I forget what else I was going to say. Yikes, what am I going to be like when I hit 60!!?? 😀

  143. Not asking. Probably giving. And grinning like a fool in the dermatology waiting room, just adoring this alternative universe you’ve created, where people hold each other up, no questions asked.

  145. https://amzn.com/w/QB1EMCS5HK9B
    Bless your sweet heart! I am listening to Furiously Happy in my car and appreciate your insights and openness, My daughter struggles from anxiety and depression and is not at peace with having it be a part of her. She could use a copy of your book, maybe signed by The President. Thank you for making a difference. PS. I had a cat named Lando CATrissian!

    (Book coming your way! ~ Jenny)

  148. I love this idea! I just sent someone a book;)

    I also made a list for my daughter and I.
    I can’t figure out how to paste it. Grrrr!!!!

  150. Jenny, there are so many time I want to give you smooches for being so thoughtful and kind. Is it possible to be very proud of someone you’ve never met?

  151. If we wish to gift a book to someone, is there a way of knowing whether hey already got one? If there’s nothing there, does that mean, they already got one?

  155. Jenny, You are the best! You have the greatest ideas and it baffles me to think that anyone could not feel the same. You put yourself out here in cyber-crazyville for the world to see and it’s just plain old awesome. I have yet to have anyone come back to me and say “that woman is completely off her crock and I just don’t get her”. What I always get its “that woman is completely off her crock and she is my people!! I love her!” So, keep on being you and coming up with awesome ideas such as this one. I’ll be looking for a wish list to send to a random stranger.

  156. I work at an inner city nonprofit that helps teen moms, and although I get to be a part of/see a lot of good be done by my fellow humans, the bad can still be overwhelming. It’s so cool to see good stuff like this happening.

    Furiously Happy helped me in the midst of depression, anxiety, chronic pain, and all of the stress that comes along with that. I had some ups recently, but I’m back in the downs right now and would love to read your first book, or Brene Brown’s Daring Greatly. Her TED talk and interview on On Being have been tremendously helpful to me as well.

    http://amzn.com/w/1MFF264TQH7X6

  160. I’m a full-time mom who just had to put my job as a preschool teaching assistant on the back burner since my younger son has been diagnosed with autism and I have to get him placed into a school that can help him. In the meantime, I’m trying to work on getting certified as an early childhood teacher so that I can return to work in a better place. This book would be a big help. 🙂

    https://amzn.com/w/CF9W24CMGM8A

  162. Hi Jasmine, I just ordered a book for your son. I hope he loves it. My grandson also loves to read and he also has to have AR points. Enjoy. Kim

  167. This is great! A kind stranger sent me a copy of Furiously Happy after seeing me post that I couldn’t afford one. I wish I could afford to pay it forward today but I can’t yet. Maybe for book #3 I’ll be able to! I have read it twice now and as the person sending it told me, no one should have to wait to read it because they can’t afford it. Thanks, as always, for being the spokesperson for all of us who are too often in the shadows somewhere . It’s a good time of year for this too, for those of us up north with seasonal depression!

  169. We are always looking for books for our NICU book project that provides the littlest of newborns a packet of books. There is a link on my most recent blog post on how to help with this project. I am a reading teacher and many of my students were preemies. The ones who were read to have a much easier time concentrating and learning. The ones who were not read to struggle, so to honor my own twins who were born too soon and didn’t survive, I started this book project for the babies that are in the hospital where my daughter works as a NICU nurse (she was my rainbow baby). Click on the link in the blog post to help if you are interested.

  170. Holy shit I went to update my list and the books were all bought. tears I seriously cannot even, as the youngsters say.

    Well, it is my 47th birthday Saturday and I am celebrating it alone with my son, so I guess if you really want to get me something, here’s my regular list, i made it public and it has several more books for my son (and for me). I will edit out the stuff that’s not books, give me a few.

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2ZWOXMRVJQC7G/ref=cm_wl_list_o_0?

  173. That was so much fun! I hope she appreciates her chosen book as much as I did! It’s now the 4th copy of Let’s Pretend It Never Happened (plus I bought the audiobook) as I never seem to get it back once I loan it out. I don’t even have my copy right now 🙂

  174. What an amazing idea. You’re awesome. So sad I missed you when you were in Denver. Please come back soon.

  176. Dear Jenny and friends,
    I’ve really been struggling the last year since I lost my job. I had to move back home with my parents to a town/community where good jobs are scarce as Hawaiian snow. (Before you get jealous, I live in coastal NC.) The resulting sinkhole of depression often makes me feel like I will never get my life back on track. I’m aggressively practicing gratitude as much as possible every day, but I could use a hand. Or just some positive thoughts. A (non-local) friend of mine on FB is currently reading Furiously Happy and really enjoying it. So here is my request, if someone has the ability to share a digital copy (I chose that because it seems most cost effective) even temporarily, for me to read, I would really appreciate it. Thank you to you, and your readers for your big hearts, and for wanting to make a difference in a stranger’s life.

    With a grateful and hopeful heart,
    Suze

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=E1FDG76KL4BX&type=wishlist

  179. Ok, I just gifted three books. Hopefully not doubles, since some wishlists had multiple books.

    Sarah R, Neisha G and Naomi S – be on the lookout!

  182. Nadine, “Wolf Hall” is on the way. Jennie, your self-help book is on the way.

    Best to both of you! 🙂

  191. If you haven’t read this book, YOU NEED THIS BOOK!!! You will laugh. You will cry. You will be SO COMFORTED by this kindred spirit!!! GO FOR THE BOOK!!!

  192. I guess my comment didn’t go through… If this is the second comment, I’m sorry, I looked through the list twice to find my comment and didn’t see it.

    I checked out your books on a whim from the library and I absolutely loved them! I helped me find myself more and realize that I’m not alone. (It also helped me talk to my husband about everything I was struggling with and he has been so supportive). It would make me so happy to be able to read these books on my bad days. I can barely afford to pay for our medical bills, let alone a book for myself. This can be my alternative to therapy since I definitely can’t afford that!

    I have followed you on twitter, facebook, instagram and your blog since the day I read your book. Thank you for being so wonderful <3

    https://amzn.com/w/I213FY9QQAQW

    (Sent your daughter a book. ~ Jenny)

  197. This is such a wonderful idea!

    I’m a grad student working full time in education research. I love to read -school related things sometimes.

    Thanks to all of the generous folks contributing to this effort. <3

    http://amzn.com/w/1Y7GUI1H9JPN8

  199. Damn, I wish there was a way to get Amazon to do free shipping w/o a minimum order for Booksgiving – I’d be doing a few more. Next payday perhaps!

  201. Cherise you have a kindle book waiting. And the person who wanted books sent to her mom, I hope she enjoys the random love. I LOVE AMAZON PRIME RIGHT NOW. I feel like Oprah.

    And thank you Cynthia!!!

  202. Ahhhh!!!! Book three!!!???

    I have a made a list of books, mostly for my daughters, but threw some in for me. The struggle is real.

    https://goo.gl/CP9wEw

    (Sent you books for you and you daughter. ~ Jenny)

  205. A friend of mine sent around some funny meme where you just add the words “with a chainsaw” to the end of the last book you read. Supposed to be hilarious. I, of course, did “Furiously Happy With a Chainsaw.” Seems about right…

  206. Hi Nicole A, comment #92 — I think your link might be wrong — it takes me to my own Kindle Wish list. Your link should have an identification number that is a mix of numbers and letters.

  207. I tried this once, and it disappeared after asking for a password that I guessed at – I thought it might give me a break and let me guess once before admitting my incompetence. Not so. Anyway, I will try a 2nd time, as I really am struggling right now and have been wanting to read your book. I actually have not been able to buy any of your work yet. Thanks for this opportunity – as you may know, rural health care – mental health maybe especially – truly is all they say it is. Nearly non-existent, and generally miles and miles away. How does one face a 2 (plus) hour drive when one can barely get out of the house?

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1OQ605AIOX1BR/ref=cm_wl_list_o_1?

  210. Ahhhh! I’m lucky enough to own both of your books, Jenny. And probably more than any human should. But I think everyone has a list of books that they won’t let themselves buy for any number of reasons. Here’s mine: http://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/38BIWN5PC6L97

    I can’t wait to give someone else a book from their list. Books are like air, an essential.

  213. This page is awesome and those of you looking for friends? We’re right here. Stop by my blog anytime where I rant and bitch about everything. Nice to meet you all.

  215. I am okay to buy my own book thanks to being on a pretty good budget, but I wanted to tell you that I think this is a very sweet idea. I’ve been reading one of your books and definitely plan on buying the others. You are a great writer.

  217. Emily (211), I’ve been scanning comments and I had a right snort when I read “I feel like Satan! No, I am SATAN!” … yeah my brain is in an nice place today … lol. : )

  220. Here’s my list: http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/4SWDEO5XT9UF

    I bought a hardcover copy of “Let’s Pretend This Never Happened” which my boyfriend and I read together sometimes. We also bought a soft cover copy for our best friends (married) because we knew they’d get a kick out of it. They’ve had a rough time recently since they lost their home.

  221. I love that the first three wishlists I clicked on were already empty. You people are THE BEST! XOXOX

  223. @April (Comment 133) – I have sent a book for your daughter. My very best wishes to her (and you!) during this difficult time. Hugs!!!

  226. Michelle Douglas (Commenter 195): Happy Booksgiving!

    I feel like god damned Santa Claus right now and I’m loving it. Thanks Jenny for perking up my craptastic day!

  227. I don’t think my last comment posted, so I’ll try again.

    Here’s my list: http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/4SWDEO5XT9UF

    We bought copies of “Let’s Pretend This Never Happened” for my boyfriend and I and our married friends because we thought they’d get a kick out of it, too. They recently had to relocate and it was really hard on them. They enjoyed the laugh.

  233. On New Year’s Day my life long dream to become a writer came true when I got offered a publishing contract. 2016 is going to be a wonderful year for me. Jenny, you’re making it a wonderful year for so many other people with this. Hopefully I can help a little too. Commenter #194, a book is headed your way.

  236. Two more books. I <3 books. Can’t stop.

    Grad school Rachel, the YA novel is on its way.

    April, a book is on the way to you too, for your daughter. I am in my late 30s, but lost my dad when I was 13. Big internet hugs to her.

  240. Staceylrn — you made my day and made me cry. Thank you so so much.
    Jessica (DrMom)

  243. I need something but I don’t know what it is. I’m 17 weeks pregnant and on bedrest for super early preeclampsia and the knowledge that the baby might be born too early to survive. I can’t work so the money’s going to hell and my evil ex is trying to use this to take my other kids away from me. I can’t imagine what book would fill that need. 🙁

    (I am sending you such love. ~ Jenny)

  244. Thank you Jenny for always encouraging us to do good for one another. I’m grateful that right now I can spend a little bit to make someone else’s day.

  245. I shipped a copy of your book to someone in the comments — their comment spoke to me! :0)

    Since I’ve already read (and loved) your newest book, I’m including a little ‘self-help for my brain’ list in case anyone feels so inclined.

    http://amzn.com/w/2GDP0MV5POJ0P

    Thanks, Jenny. xx

  249. Jenny, Amazon will not ship to South Africa. I have a Kindle account with which I bought Furiously Happy but Let’s Pretend This Never Happened never came out as an e-book. Bummer. Can I put an e-book on my Wish List?

  251. I needed this today. Love gifting books!

    Theresa, Hyperbole and Half is on its way.

  252. Onibologna and Cynthia K, thank you both! I always thought there was nothing my kids could go through that I hadn’t been through myself, but losing a parent turned out to be an exception, so I’ve been doing everything I can to figure out how to make sure she’s going to be okay.

  254. My daughters and I love to read. I am so happy to share my love of books with them, even if they like scarier things than I do… My anxiety makes it hard for me to deal with people so books are an escape for me.

    http://amzn.com/w/2D8HFJK92CM7U

  261. Hey Jenny,
    If you cannot access Amazon.ca accounts, just change the .ca to .com and you can buy it from there.

  262. Books help me get through the tough times, happy to help someone else find comfort in a good book. Thanks for setting this up Jenny! <3

  263. I have to stop now before my bank account protests too much, but being able to give a few books has made me very happy. Thank you Jenny for this initiative. Hugs for everyone.

  268. @ April – I lost my mum a couple of years ago. Check with funeral directors in your area – some run grief support groups for teens. This book might help. Weird is Normal – When Teenagers Grieve. Also Healing your grieving heart for teens – 100 practical ideas is also really good.
    Sending huge internet hugs.

  269. Shelly Darnall – please update your Amazon wish list with your mailing address! I tried to buy the book but could only ship it to me.

  270. Ok, this time i’m swallowing my pride and will post my wishlist.
    I’m going through a rough time (my partner of 12 years died unexpectedly 6 months ago), my financial situation is shit, i have trouble with depression and anxiety and was already on sick leave before my Lesley died because of horrible work situation.

    So all in all, not having a great time at the moment, not at all.
    And reading keeps me going, always has.

    note:
    – the books on the list are in upside order; I listed the ones I really ‘need’ first, but those appear on the bottom of the list. The ones that show up at the top are ones I would love to read, but ‘just’ for entertainment. Jenny’s books and grief related books on bottom that should be top.

    Also I live in the Netherlands, so if postage turns out to be too much, don’t worry, i appreciate the thought and totally understand.
    And; the books don’t have to be the copy I listed, paperback, 2nd hand, all would be absolutely fantastic.
    Just one book would be amazing :).

    So for my list, I hope it went ok
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/3W0KM2OZ41MFB/ref=cm_wl_list_o_1?view=null

    Thank you Jenny for being such a special person, setting up things like these

    Tamar

  271. This is Brilliant! What a wonderful gift to give to people. I have several people that I want to share your book with already after reading it myself. But this is a genius way to pay it forward. I have already selected several links and intend to do more. Thank you, Jenny, for this wonderful idea to share your amazing book and or something someone else truly needs to get by in troubled times of their lives. I have lived a similar life to that which you depicted in both your books. I joke that Jenny Lawson is living my life.(I’m older and am also a Jenny, lol) So you keep writing and we, the Broken, but Furiously Happy, will be waiting to cheer you on and of course wait for the feast of written words to ease our souls. Jenny H.

  274. Hi Jenny and Friends 🙂 I would so like to get this book for my best friend, she is a terrific mom & wife who works fulltime AND goes to school at night. Shes trying to make their life better. she still has time to help me, her sick friend who has anxiety & panic attacks I cant even function some days (she introduced me to Jenny’s 1st book) She’s my hero, my blessing. Jenny is OUR GIRL!!!
    https://amzn.com/w/200NQNI7MZ0LN

  275. Furiously Happy was one of my favorite kick ass books of 2015!
    Thank you for making me giggle like an idiot.
    Can we go for wine together one day? Please.
    Anyhow, I’m your greatest stalker, I mean, fan!!
    Love and Appreciation from MN. xx

  276. I have given books over the years for Christmas donations for families in need and also donate new or like new books to my girls’ school to pass on to kids that need them. Books are the best gifts to give. I love this post so much! I wish I was in a position to help others right now because I know everyone here could benefit from a book gift. Hopefully soon I can return to this list and pick some links to send books! Thank you for spreading the happiness!!!

  279. I have a wonderful little boy that loves to have books read to him! He always gets upset when we have to take them back to the library, so to have a few of his own would be magical.
    This is such an amazing community. I have been following it for several years now and its amazing to see the support of one another, no question and no judgement. It makes it so much easier to just be, me. Thank you.

  280. Emmy – there is a book winging its way to you! I love my beautiful messy life!

  281. I’d really love a copy. I’ve been putting it off for others things and also dealing with the loss of my 19yo daughter Kaitlyn who passed Oct 2013 from a car crash. This is a great idea, Jenny and I hope to pay it forward and purchase for someone else when I can…

  282. Alice (240), are you on Twitter or Instagram? Bed rest sucks the happiness out of me, but being able to connect with people online helps. Don’t be afraid to friend me — in fact, please do!

  284. Seamyst, OMG! I’m so exctied !!! I think I was able to change it. It shows my shipping address? I hope I did it right..

  288. I think the address thing is fixed now…
    A few unexpected life changes (a big move where finding new friends has been the hardest of any move we’ve made, and death of a good friend, a mom of 3) have put me in a lonely place lately. I’ve always been a blog fan but never read your books. Fortunately our library has Furiously Happy, so it’s on my list of things to borrow, but a copy of my own to share with someone else who needs it when I’m done would be even better.

    Here is my amazon link…in case I’d get picked :)..
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/18BWS52HL2RPZ/ref=cm_wl_rlist_go_v?

  290. Love this idea! Bought 2 copies of your book for people. Hope things look up soon for those that need it.

  293. Muse and Ashley K, happy booksgiving, I know how it feels to be in need, just paying forward the loving kindness I received. Take good care, and enjoy the books.

  295. Books are my escape. Words are my refuge when I’m stuck inside my own head. I’ve been doing pretty well recently, or I’ve gotten much better at lying to myself. My husband though had been sliding in and out of depression these past few months. It’s been everything I have to keep us both from drowning. I buy books for people as often as I can. I recommend stories to get lost in, or to help find the words that have been lost. I guess I’m the one that needs that now. https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=3ICVJSF143NWT&type=wishlist

  296. Hello, I hate asking for help so i am using this as an exercise. I will be perfectly okay if i do not receive anything.I had a parent i was a care giver for recently pass away and i rely on books (and coloring) to relax and/or escape when i need a break from reality. I already have both of Jenny’s books so i am asking for a different one. Thank you all for your help and the opportunity to ask for help. https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1ER3PFD56OKRI/ref=cm_wl_list_o_1?

  297. Heather Mathieson, comment #165, good things shall be delivered to you tomorrow 🙂
    And Jenny, it feels really good to be able to do this. Thank you for ththe chance to brighten someone’s day.

  298. My list is of happy and interesting things about sports for a few of my middle school special ed. students because we’ve been having a very rough few weeks (there are things in life that even teachers shouldn’t have to explain to kids) and would love a bit of escapism and new reading material. I am lucky to have readers in my room but don’t always have the funds to buy them the books that they love. Love you for this Jenny, and these will get passed around and shared plenty.

    (I love this. Sent the kids a book. Thank you for what you do. ~ Jenny )

  299. I still don’t know if my address was added even though it shows it is. 🙁

  302. I’m overwhelmed by the generosity if someone I have never met. Seriously, tearing up. Thank you, LS.

    -Suze

  303. Someone… someone mysterious, generous, and just every which way WONDERFUL bought my book! I want that person to know that you have moved me to tears of pure joy. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to this beautifully kind stranger. My gratitude is immeasurable ♡

  307. Booksgiving should be a national holiday! And we should all get the day off to read.

  310. I finally got “Furiously Happy” from my library last night after putting it on hold in October and am voraciously reading it currently, but my wish is for the next Stephen King book. My best friend and I were gigantic fans. We were going to get matching Dark Tower tattoos, but as you’ll notice, I am speaking of her in past tense, because she succumbed to the rare autoimmune disease that we both have, so now, I have to carry on reading all of Mr. King’s books without her, and hopefully, some how, magically, they are getting through me to her.

  312. P.S to post #262
    I feel a bit embarassed; it seems my list is pretty long compared to other lists..
    But obviously i’m not expecting to get all of the books (if any of them); it’s just..Amazon..books..can’t help myself.
    Sorry for coming over all greedy

    love,
    Tamar

  315. Jenny, this is the greatest thing ever, and I love you for it.

    I need to close the tab on your site, because I’ve sent books to 3 people, and if I keep the page open, I’ll keep sending more, but I just wanted to say thank you for being you and being awesome.

  317. After five children and 23 years of marriage I discovered my husband is a sex addict and had been cheating throughout our entire marriage. I am furiously angry, resentful, sad and depressed while trying to raise our youngest three children alone. This blog has been helpful in letting me know I’m not alone. I would love to be furiously happy! Thank you.

  320. Seamyst49 – You don’t even know how thankful I am. You’re the best!! Thank you!!

  321. I would love your book but reading these comments, there are so many people more worthy than I. Although I have a very limited income I just can’t ask for one. But what you do is so very awesome. Thank you.

  325. J Rose (#(306)–the new Stephen King will be at your door on June 7–I hope you remember your friend fondly while reading.

  327. Daniel from AL, Abigail from MO, Erika from CA and Megan from Canada – Enjoy your books!

    And to Jenny – this is just FANTASTIC. Thank you for making this happen today!

  332. Thank you so much for the person who bought me a book. For the first time in a while, I cried, but with happiness. You really did give me hope. I’ve only really became part of this community recently (though I’ve been reading Jenny for a few years now) and you are truly amazing.

  334. Thank you so much for this Jenny! This just makes my heart so happy! I feel a little awkward about it, but here is my list: Books I could use right now Link: http://amzn.com/w/2UEU8YI20SIE
    Since my son was born theres been a lot of joy, but also some pretty hard times. Sometimes it feels like who I am and definitely my creativie side has been lost in the shuffle of diapers and naptimes. I found Brene Brown’s book Daring Greatly through this blog and it’s been very inspirational to me, I’m hoping her other books and the books on nurturing creativity will be a much needed boost. Much Love to you all <3 <3

  343. Let’s see if I can make this work. I’m in a bad place with med adjustments and a new psychiatrist and stress at work and credit card debt and so I added a book for me (Kindle edition since it was cheapest and I have an old Kindle) so I can afford to participate in book group this month (the library wait list is far too long, I won’t make it in time) and one for my son, who deserves something nice and loves to help me cook.

    Wishlist:

  344. Book should be there Thursday, Ashley Mortensen. Hang on; you’re not alone, okay? Hugs to you!

  345. I am in between books right now and have added a few to my “Books!!!” list. I’ve read both of your books, Jenny, and they were so open and honest. Thank you for that. I have a couple of busy kids, one with ADHD who keeps me on my toes (mostly because of all the stuff she leaves around the house!). We are always financially strapped for cash and use the library, thrift stores, and garage sales for most of our reading material. A shiny new book would be so exciting!

  347. I loved “Let’s Pretend This Never Happened ” ! I remember I learned the hard way NOT to be eating or drinking while reading it ! I would love to read “Furiously Happy” ! Actually I would love any books to read ! Lately reading is the only way to run away from all the depressing things happening everyday. I know I shouldn’t do that but should deal with it head on and beat it. Some days though I just need to escape ! And books are low on my list of priorities money wise. My daughter is finally getting to where she likes to read and given a choice, please choose her a book instead ! Thank you !

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2F62UQ1GRB1Z/ref=cm_wl_list_o_2?

  349. Aww, this is the best. Thank you, Anony (#325) and Jenny for being so awesome. cries all ugly
    I should add that Tracey (my lost friend) was always my book fairy. And our shared disease is Behcet’s Disease. It sucks and more people should know about it.

  350. Testing to see if this comment posts – I tried to post with my wishlist and I don’t see the comment. Maybe the comment is in moderation? (Crying a little at the anxiety of maybe missing this chance, because of course I am.)

  351. I just sent your book to a random stranger here. Thanks for the opportunity to have such a feel-good experience. You rock, Jenny!

  355. If anyone would like to share a book I would be most grateful. This winter has been a tough one mentally, have been trying to find the energy to climb the uphill battle again back out of this hole. I promise to pass it along once I read it, I know several folks who I think could use some laughs and understanding. Thank you! http://amzn.com/w/1QGN0Q97IXIG9

  357. Ok, I’m putting one out there. My son has severe autism and loves nothing more than road tripping with mom. So we pile on the car and find some new place to make a spectacle of ourselves. But we run out of ideas if places to go. This has been in my wish last for at least a year.

    Also, I’ve got lots of good used kid books that I could totally pass on to others if there would be a way to set that up? Yeah…

  359. I love you even more than I did for doing this. An online friend, I had never met her IRL, gifted me your first book on Audible to get me through the beginnings of my divorce. I did jigsaw puzzles and cross stitched while listening and crying and laughing. When Furiously Happy came out it again helped me through a rough patch in my relationship and now my boyfriend and I are listening to it together. Thank you for sharing yourself with us and making me feel like I was less alone in my anxiety and depressive moods. I really wan to give someone else the chance to escape, cause life can take all your spoons, but maybe I can give one back.

  360. Thank you, Jenny!!! (post #317) Sending much love to all the givers and receivers and the entire bloggess community.

  362. Thank you. Thank you, friend. I can’t believe that was so kind, and so quickly after I posted. I have been amazed at how wonderful people can be. Thank you, again. A mystery to distract me. You made me cry, I am so shocked and happy. Thank you.

  365. Thank you for the kindness of G.J. You know who you are!! Can’t wait to start reading! So grateful. #319 💛

  366. Janet (354) your book is on it’s way! Delivery is Monday as I do not have Prime. x

  367. Are your raccoon’s stalking me? How did you know that I posted about your book on facebook and bought one for a friend who was in the hospital? 😉 …I am sure you read it over and over again. And you should keep on reading it… your awesome. This was my post and raw feelings on why you are awesome (and you really are my long lost twin, I just sucked out your extrovert and took a little too much, the vacuum got stuck, what can I say…).

    “Life, we all live and add to the adventure every day. Adventures aren’t all smiles, rainbows, and the good side doesn’t always win (though second time around I beg to differ). wink emoticon
    I have been wanting to write this for a while but in the past week I have had a lot of friends express their struggle and I have had my own as well. The struggle is always real, but it doesn’t mean we are loosing.
    I feel it is important to be who we are in our own skin. That may seem somewhat cliche these days with the “pc” movement, but I’m not talking “pc” or any form of movement. I am talking knowing yourself, the good and bad parts. We all have them. We reach into our bag of hope and usually show just the good part, that we shine up and make presentable. The thing is… you can still have hope when talking about the bad because when your down, there is only one way to travel, and that is up.
    You won’t be the same, so don’t try to be. When you dig deep into that hope, you will find that piece of joy, that feeling. You don’t have to be a past you. As a friend recently said, just be the best version of you. The best Becky. I’m not telling you to put on a facade. I’m saying, do something silly that brings you back. Have an ice cream fight with your 5 year old (or someone elses), say yes to something you are struggling to interact with.
    The only time I have been clinically assigned a label is when I had the baby blues after having Noah. It changed me. I would not wish it on my worst enemy. I will have moments of massive anxiety and sometimes light depression. Last year was my first panic attack I have ever had in my life… people think that means I flipped out… no just felt nauseous, heart acceleration, sweat, and like the world was closing in. I had a friend to help me through it.. walked it off. I was at work when it happened early in the morning.
    The thing is… I am not alone. I have never been alone. I have thought that I was alone because in the past, no one talked about it. I have been a tough cookie my whole life. I go after elephants in the room, I have no problem speaking up and out, but I am human. When strong all the time, I have to give myself weak moments. We ALL do. It IS okay.
    Do I consider myself mental? Hell no… maybe a little crazy, but when respectfully looking at my past and present. I am doing pretty damn good.
    I don’t know about you, but when you share your story with me I am pretty freaking proud of you for sharing your stories and life with me. It is all about coming to terms with ones self. We are all different and really quite awesome.
    I have been reading Jenny Lawson’s (The Bloggess) books. The second book is called “Furiously Happy”. There is a point to being Furiously Happy. Because battling with depression and anxiety makes you not so happy. It is tough and it affects everyone around you. If you haven’t read her books (she is quite crass by the way but I feel that she may be my long lost twin), they made me seriously bust out into laughter at 11 at night while Dave was attempting to sleep…. they make me cry because I “know the feeling”, but what is the biggest thing for me in her books is her choice to try, really try to be furiously happy… not marginally happy, not putting on a fake smile… BUT OMG IN YOUR FACE LETS DO THIS, cause I AM GONNA HAVE BAD DAYS… so lets make these good days KICK ASS! Then after a while, I will remember more GOOD DAYS than bad days. Lets face it, misery loves company, but when bad days get ninja kicked in the face, they are down for the count.
    So, lets kick some ass right this minute. Not this week, not this day, right now. Cause it is about now.
    Try to say yes to those things you use to do that brought you joy and that may make you anxious now.
    Don’t stop inviting people to things who have anxiety about social events, keep inviting them!
    And if you need to talk, lets talk.
    If you need to get coffee, lets do it.
    If you want to buy a marshmallow gun and shoot my husband, I’m game! (I may need to tell him first and you will need to supply the guns, I can do the marshmallows).
    Paint, color, sing, be SILLY.
    Laugh and take the time to invite people into your space.
    I’ve tagged some of you for different reasons. And I know I missed many tags and I didn’t include family, cause your stuck with me… Some of you I spend a small amount of time with, some a lot. Thank you for being in my life when I need it most. Sometimes you bring joy. Sometimes perspective. Sometimes laughter. Sometimes a listening ear. Thank you for listening and sharing and being a friend in my life. The world is better with you in it – don’t forget that!
    Here is a video that Jenny did about her book. It pretty much sums it up. We all have our broken pieces, but we truly are so amazing.

    Furiously Happy – Official Book Trailer
    Jenny Lawson is furiously happy. Are you? http://www.furiouslyhappy.com “

  368. I’m not working right now, but the next time I have some extra money, I’ll be getting a couple of copies for one of our local mental health centers to add to their lending library. This is definitely a book that needs to be read! 🙂

    P.S. You don’t need to send me a box of kittens — I’m good. I just finished fostering a mom and her litter of six. The dog is still recovering from all the kitten-squee (and I’m still finding poo-paw-prints in the foster room)!

  375. I love Bloggess books and this place!!
    One of my favorite recent books is Landmarks by Robert Macfarlane. He writes so beautifully about a tiny gem of a book call Living Mountain by Nan Shepherd. I want to get my hands on Living Mountain so much. <3

  383. Thanks so much for doing this, Jenny! You are my hero for so many reasons.
    I always feel strange asking for things, but I’m struggling right now with my depression and figuring out my place in the world. I had to leave my job last year due to my bipolar and panic disorders, money is tight, and I always put my wants as last priority. There are some books I wasn’t comfortable asking family for for Christmas. If someone would be so kind to gift me any of these books I would be so grateful.
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2XWP86PJC9BJD/ref=topnav_lists_2

  386. I loved your book so much. I don’t need a free one. I just bought another to make sure I can actually give the one that was loaned to me back. Thank you for your honesty.

  387. Howdy everyone!

    What a cool idea – thanks Jenny! I’m sure looks of books will be shared 🙂

    Why might I need a book?
    I’m in Marketing, mid-twenties, and I recently just left my ‘big-kid’ job because the environment was really rough. Loved (seriously loved) the job, but the small-company-crazy-emotional-owner was just too much. I was the first of three to leave within a month. I left without a plan, and the confidence within myself that I’ll figure out a new one. I still have that confidence, and the book on my list is from the POV a relatable figure (though I think she drinks a lot more than I do?). Maybe it’ll be a fun distraction while I figure it all out!

    Here’s my Amazon link:
    https://www.amazon.ca/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=2YYND3FKQY12E&type=wishlist

  389. YAY! This is an amazing idea. I look forward to looking at everyone’s wishlists and doing some gifting. Thanks for making this possible.

  390. Are we making this an official book loves holiday? I support it. I am also happy to buy a copy for someone if we are doing that. I like that idea.

  391. Okay, I’m trying one more time in a different browser – I’ve tried to post twice and nothing is showing up, and maybe the comments are in moderation, but I’ve commented here before and I’m now giving myself a legit panic attack about doing this wrong and messing up and missing out and I’m crying. Because of course.
    Mom of one, things are tight right now. Medication issues, a new psychiatrist, stress at work, credit card balances, etc. I added an ebook for me so I can participate in a book club this month (I usually use the library but the wait list is too long), and one for my son who loves to help me in the kitchen, because he is the best thing in my world.
    http://smile.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2MSCP98KC8NWW/ref=cm_sw_em_r_wsg_RKsSwb0DB41VW_wb

  392. I already have both of your books, thank goodness. I read them over and over.
    I’m struggling with some financial difficulties right now, on top of chronic illness that is flaring up. So as nice as a fiction book would be, what I really need is a book with some ideas.

    Thank you for doing this, I love how many wish lists are empty when I click on them. 🙂

    http://smile.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/1KVKF6FP764ZU

  393. I wanted to add to my earlier comment (258) by saying that my audiobook of “Let’s Pretend this Never Happened” was one of the things that got me through when mum died and I had to move home (you really should never return home as an adult) to help dad and the dog adjust and cope. If I couldn’t escape into that when I got into the car, I’m not sure what would have happened, but it wouldn’t have been pretty. I literally wore out one of the CDs because I needed to hear the stories on it so often. I’ve since got a softcover copy of the book, and it is very well loved. So thank you Jenny – for those of us struggling to get through a day, your wit brings smiles and laughter.

  395. Totally AWESOME book and I’d tell my starving daughter in grad school to sign in for a copy except I already sent her one which she will send on to a friend and she will send on… well you get the idea. IT IS GREAT to know those of us with similar issues are not alone out here.

  396. Thank you,thank you,thank you!
    You are an amazing person with so much spirit!
    Your blog and books have been a
    Light for me.Thank your for setting this up, it’s an amazing idea!

  397. Apparently I’ve been outsmarted by technology yet again. Here’s my linkhttp://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/5IC5KW6NACIM

  398. I cheated (a little).

    Caroline (#385) and Sarah (#384), your books are on the way!

  400. Whole lotta “Wow” to the community! I can’t wait to hear “Guess what I just read Ms. K?” from my kiddos. Thanks all!

  402. This is awesome! Had I seen this two days ago, I’d have posted a wish-list in a skinny minute. Today things look much, much brighter. Perhaps I can help someone else’s wish-list.

  403. Ok, mine is absurd, but there’s also some Roald Dahl for my kids. But, here. The reason I want it is because it reminds me of my grandmother, who got me the similar version of LOTR the year before she died and my head wants my copies to match. Feel completely free to skip me. https://amzn.com/w/3SION0OKA9WJM

  404. My daughter is at college, and she has had anxiety issues since her pre-teen years. She borrowed my copy of Furiously Happy and really enjoyed it. I am hoping the book I put on the Wishlist will allow her to laugh through some of the tough times as well. We really scraped to just afford text books this semester as my husband was laid-off over the holidays.
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1QN2D59U9FV90/ref=cm_wl_list_o_3?
    My gratitude and appreciation, if the book is purchased or not, is ten-fold. Any one who chooses to make their struggles public helps those who haven’t quite found their footing yet.

  405. Jenny you’re my hero. I love this idea and hope that when my husband finally goes back to work I can fill someone’s wish list. Thank you and the tribe for being such awesome people.

  406. Sent books to a few more people here. Am so happy that most of the wishlists I clicked on were already empty!

  411. Hi there – I am asking for this book for a friend…I have a copy, and I have read it at least three times since the day it came out, and I still read it. However my job situation has changed since then, and I can’t afford to purchase one for my friend Barbara. I met Barbara last year when we were both at a facility for different issues (mine was alcohol detox, hers was depression, both of us voluntarily admitted). That place wrecked us both even further, and we have since been having even worse issues than when we went in (although thank God the alcohol problem is over!). She has been suicidal at times, and calls me for support because I understand her depression (I have it too, but not to the same degree – anxiety is worse for me). I truly believe she would get great comfort from this book, because she feels so alone right now, and doesn’t want to get help like the last place, for fear it will be the same (believe me, it was horrible, the stuff of horror movies and nightmares). If anyone can please help my friend, I would be so so thankful! This blog and Jenny’s books have been a tremendous help to me, and I thank you all!!

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=1012ZBKBY8B6R&type=wishlist

  412. I feel odd asking for a book but I’m a library paraprofessional (despite having a Masters in Library Science and sitting on 120k in debt to get it) and get paid squat. I’ve wanted your books for a while but haven’t the finances to buy books right now (getting less than 10 hours a week at the moment at just barely over minimum wage). My libraries have them but the wait is about a year long. I could wait, certainly, but if anyone is feeling generous I put both of Jenny’s books on plus The Catcher in the Rye for my oldest son. Anyways here is my link 🙂 http://amzn.com/w/2DHVXOHY6S1WH

  415. This is the best idea – Thank you Jenny! Caroline #385 From one Downton Abbey fan to another – Enjoy!

  418. Jenny, you restore my faith in humanity with things like this!
    Cayla, Ashley, Heather, Nicole, Levi, Petrina, and Amanda – your books should arrive on Thursday!

  420. Loni (403) please add your address – I cannot send to your wishlist without it 😉

  423. p.s. My book club is meeting tonight…to ‘discuss’ “Furiously Happy”. I can’t wait to tell them about your experiment! (Also, we’ve decided to watch comedy bits and play telestrations as part of our meeting tonight).

  428. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! <3 (Tears for now, but they’re happy ones.)

  429. Hi
    I’ve never asked for anything like this before as I figure so long as I have food and a place to live, there are people more in need of help than me. But I’m facing a rough time – my depression and anxiety are really high, I lost my job, and because my health prevents me from working outside the home, I’m really scared about that. My local mental health team will only offer me group therapy so I try to cope on my own, but today I woke up to find one of my teeth had crumbled so I have to face going to the dentist which both costs money and really terrifies me. It all feels a bit like the final straw and it’s hard to find a reason to smile right now. The Bloggess always makes me smile even when it’s hard going, so I think being able to sit and read Furiously Happy would keep the darkness at bay a while longer, maybe long enough for me to get a handle on it and find my faith in myself and life again. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/registry/wishlist/2TIHGO5OPMTWU/ref=cm_wl_huc_title

  430. 403! You need an address, hun. I would love nothing more than to send a copy of Matilda to someone.

  431. It’s been a rough few months in our family as our teen has struggled for the first time with major depression. I think she’s up to reading this now, as she begins to turn the corner. Thank you, Jenny, for the idea, as well as for the phrase, “Depression lies.” It’s kept her alive at times. I’ll pay it forward when I can. Thank you.
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/WWTSGZOUTP5L/ref=topnav_lists_3
    PS I thought I posted this, but couldn’t find it again. My apologies for spamming if it’s here twice!

    (It’s on it’s way. Sending love. ~ Jenny)

  432. Tamar (#270 and #312), sending both of Jenny’s books your way. Amazon says they will deliver between February 15th and February 23rd. Enjoy!

  433. Thank you to my amazon benefactor for the lovely gift – I can’t wait to dive in. I’ll keep this list handy and see if there are a couple I can help with in the next day or so. Wonderful idea.

  434. Delightful idea, I’m thrilled that I am in a position to gift. Happy Booksgiving!

  437. I agree, Booksgiving should be a national holiday and we should get the day off to read! This is a FANTASTIC idea. Someone start a change.org petition!

  438. Thank you so much Sarah (311). You just made my whole day, week and month! (And thank you Jenny for being so awesome and assembling this amazing tribe of misfits)

  439. I want to contribute. Really do. But when I click on the links no names come up. I have a HORRIBLE head cold and can’t think. Any screen shots for those of us that want to give? I understand the click on the link part .. .after that . .fog .as to what I am supposed to see or do next?

    (Try clicking the most recent comments. Lots of the first ones have been bought so they just show an empty wish list, which is a wonderful thing. 🙂 ~ Jenny)

  440. @Erica B who posted a wish list for her mom – from one Massachusetts resident to her, she should have all three books from the wish list tomorrow. Give her my love and I hope she enjoys.

  441. Hey Wish List Makers, just a head’s up: if you order an e-book/kindle version, Amazon keeps your email address private on the confirmation page on its website, but NOT on the confirmation page it sends to the buyer. I will contact Amazon for the one incident I experienced, but please proceed with caution that someone may be able to obtain your email address.

  443. Even though I should be watching my money instead of spending it, I convinced my brain it’s okay to buy someone else in need a book. I went though a LOT of empty wishlist but finally found someone. I hope it brightens their day & that they find a way to pay it forward somehow. Everyone deserves a little light in this dark/tough world.

  444. I don’t have either one of your books, Jenny. I’m also going through a rough patch the last few months with my autoimmune diseases ramping into overdrive after my cancer surgery. Oy. Anyway, I know it looks like I’m way too late for the 30 books, but I will leave my list anyway. My birthday is in 28 days and that’s kind of freaking me out. I’ll be 45. With a tween. Lord help me. lol https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ls/?ie=UTF8&lid=2PRB1PGTVETGA

  447. This may or may not have been asked earlier but can I also add your first book to send along as well? I LOVE THIS IDEA…was just talking up FH at a “transition party” (going away party for a dear friend who lost her job) this past Saturday and think I moved another five copies for you Jenny.

  449. Almost finished with Furiously Happy from the library but would love to have a copy to own and lend. Family members have actually come to check that I’m okay because I’m snorting with laughter so often. Put a book for each of my older children. Also Bill Bryson’s new book for some armchair traveling. It makes me so happy to see my kids with their nose in a book, and not just because it makes them quiet. (But bonus!)
    http://amzn.com/w/2MZXPJBDO1ELX

  451. How cool! I’ve just recently started following your blog, and today I read this post and thought – Hey, I think I’ve read “Let’s Pretend This Never Happened!” And I have! I love your writing and POV!

  453. My daughter gave me “Furiously Happy” and you sent an autographed book plate with this wonderful glitter which is over everything and it makes me happy. Where can I get some??? I was so jealous, initially, when my daughter got to meet you and get her book signed and then she gave me one and my heart melted. Please write more books! And tell me where I can get this wonderful glitter/fairy dust.

  454. It’s a long story, but I’d really love to have your book sent anonymously to my nephew’s fiance. She’s had a crazy couple of months with surgery and an unpaid month out of work, followed by emergency surgery for her dog who ate a rubber ball. I just think she could use this book. Her name is Alison, and I’m not sure whether the wishlist will show up correctly, but I put her address in the list.

  455. 403/436 one book on it’s way to you (arriving by the 10th). After a very long, very crummy day, it was so much fun to do something small for you…may you have better times soon!

  458. I am adding a list with a book for my pre-teen daughter. She is soldiering through anxiety, depression, loneliness, some social isolation, and some very scary times – we had to involve Crisis Response, which was just heartbreaking for a 10 year old. We are responding in every way possible. She is an incredibly talented artist and she adores My Little Pony. She’s asked for this book for a while but I’ve never been able to get it for her. A surprise gift would absolutely make her week. Thank you, you wonderful, beautiful people, for being so open and generous. Regardless of whether this wish can be fulfilled, the fact that some of these get filled is so incredible.

  459. Liz S, one of your books is on the way. Jenny, a lot of the lists are empty. Is there any way to post all the lists with books left on them so no one gets left out? Thank you so much for doing this! Such an awesome idea!

  461. Turns out Amazon US accounts easily work on Amazon UK, as a result #124 admiralandrea and #382 Beth, your books are on their way. Amazon UK says you will receive them the 4th.

  462. In addition to Jenny’s amazing, incredible books I will gladly buy a copy of Allie Brosh’s book Hyperbole and a Half: http://www.amazon.com/Hyperbole-Half-Unfortunate-Situations-Mechanisms/dp/1451666179/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1454458363&sr=8-1&keywords=hyperbole+and+a+half
    Add it to your wishlist and I’ll send it your way, especially if you already have Jenny’s books. I give both Jenny’s books and/or Allie’s book to friends who need a little pick me up. And because my work is to support young women recently diagnosed with breast cancer, I give away A LOT of these books. 🙂

    ETA: I’m not sure if this posted or not originally – my Internet hiccuped as I hit post, and I waited about 15 minutes for it to show up, but I’m not seeing it. So sorry if this is a duplicate!

  464. The love and kindness in your blog and the comments never ceases to amaze me! I’m just coming out of the worst episode of depression in my adult life. Furiously Happy really helped me through it. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and there is one book from my childhood that could always lighten my mood and make me smile.
    http://amzn.com/w/25843ZB5QZCJ3

  465. Thank you for doing this. This is a beautiful thing to help people. I’m not doing so good lately and am struggling in the darkness of depression and grief and the bad thoughts in my mind. Pretending to be happy around people is getting exhausting, when there are days I want it all to stop. Just to be hugged and held being told it’s all going to be ok. I almost lost to depression a few months back. And some days I’m ok with that. Other days I want to fight. Sorry just needed to get all that out. This here, makes me feel less alone. Less like a freak as I’ve been called. So thank you again. Here is my wish list. Hope I did it right.
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ls/?ie=UTF8&lid=1DEERG92K3OLE

  466. I sent a book to someone here in Canada, but it wouldn’t let me use my prime shipping, so you have to wait a few days…Sorry!!!

  467. #287/289 and #429 looks like there isn’t a shipping address associated with the wishlist, if by chance you see this comment later today please add a shipping address and I’ll check back. With the time difference, it might be on the 3rd US time when I’m able to check back.

  469. I must say I’m hyperventilating a bit. I usually don’t do anything for myself in terms of mental health but I’m trying to start. Admitting to anxiety and depression myself is terrifying when I feel like I have an obligation to be my college roommate’s rock (because of his own serious metal illness and recent ftm transition, this is rather futile) Besides the normal pressures of double majoring, trying to graduate in 4 years and ya know, Life, some days I’m not sure I can deal with normal life let alone all the craziness. Sorry, this was not supposed to turn into a diary entry. But here. here is the link so someone, anyone might help me: http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/ref=cm_wl_upd_nojs_succ_mng

    ps- now i’ll go spend the rest of the night beating myself up for reach out. But if you see this and you’re the one that buys this book- Thank you. A million times, thank you.

  471. Getting through school and having to spend my money on food rather than books that would help my depression has really taken a toll on my capability to cope with stress. I try my best to get to libraries when I can but there’s something about owning my own copy that makes me feel 10x better. I don’t expect anything, but it’s worth a try! This is an amazing concept and it shows how much this community cares!
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=35U34E5QZC7U5&type=wishlist

  473. Oh my goodness; several books of my list were bought. I can’t believe, i felt so insecure and clumsy in posting my list and now i’m crying. I’m so grateful, not enough words for that.
    Friday is my birthday and the 6 month anniversary of my Lesley’s death.
    This gives me something to look forward to and to distract me

    You people are amazing and i can’t wait to gift some books too at some point in the not too faraway future.

    (Jeannette, thank you so so much for getting me both of jenny’s books <3 .
    Other gifters i cant see who you are i think but you made a very hard day a lot brighter) xxx Tamar

  474. I love this idea but sadly I am in the camp of ” I really want to give a book to a strangeling but can’t afford the price right now”. Anyone else in this camp and bummed about it ?

  477. #463, mamfox I saw your request and couldn’t resist. From one MLP fan to another. One book arrives the 4th, the 2nd comes the 5th

  478. uh oh, mama fox may get duplicates. Looks like Jayme and I may have purchased around the same time (unless you had more than two in your wishlist?)

  480. Savannah (#471) — your book is on its way and will arrive on Thursday. Furiously Happy reading!!

  482. I have and love Furiously Happy. I also love this idea. I’m at the bottom of an ugly hole right now, and this community is something special and bright and helpful. I’m not able to be a “real” person right now, so hiding in books is it. My go-to “I just can’t right now” author is Sir Terry Pratchett. The book below is one that he mentions as one of his favorite books.

    https://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/2B204VKO0CBR/ref=cm_sw_r_it_wl_o_mRuSwb3PNVBE1

  483. OK 434 – Alison’s book is on the way. Hope it helps. (Thanks Blogess – told her I loved the book LOVED it ..except the cussing . .. .lol . .had to be truthful.) Going to find someone whose kid needs a book now

  484. 2broke2choke – your link keeps taking me to my own wish list, can you check to make sure you’ve got it showing correctly? Thanks!

  486. This is seriously the nicest thing ever! I only have 2 books on my list, both by Jenny Lawson. 😉 I want to send them to my sister who could really use them. Thank you to whomever looks at my list! <3 <3 <3 https://amzn.com/w/1CZ8EXZSLI0IF

  488. Jayme and Andrea, there were a few books in the list and now it’s empty, but if I do get duplicates, I will definitely send them forward to other struggling kids. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am giggling and crying at the same time. She will be so excited.

  490. Jenny- can you let commenter 129, Charity, know that her wish has been granted, but she added the paperback to her wishlist so it was a pre-order and won’t come until September 🙁 I’d be happy to upgrade her to the hardback though, if she gets in touch with me. You can give her this email address.

    Thank you for being the center of our wacky tribe!

  491. I feel weirdly guilty asking for help, because my daughters birthday is coming up and she LOVES books, but the budget has been tight lately. We have been hitting all the thrift stores, but the books she really wants are Harry Potter, and they’re never in the stores.

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=3TEBIJTWJGMQK&type=wishlist

    I know if she gets a new book she’ll be so excited. I only put one book on her list bc I didn’t want to seem greedy. But if anyone has any used Harry Potter books (Mostly the first 4) I’d be happy to rehome them. We aren’t picky.
    Thanks so much. In advance. Even if we don’t get it. Thank you for letting us ask.

  492. Heather Rivet, your book is on its way! Know that someone in Colorado loves you and feels your pain. Thanks Jenny for leading the way!

  493. Thank you Jenny for such an awesome idea. I’ve never asked for anything before but it’s been a rough year (yeah and it’s only Feb!) I wouldn’t ask except for my kiddos. I love to read and love that they are starting to love to read as well. The youngest is special needs and the only books he likes is Llama Llama ones but they don’t have this one at my library. The older one wants to be an astronaut and devours any thing space related. Thank you in advance these books will be loved and read a 100 times
    https://amzn.com/w/10WIN7A2HB25N

  494. Tyler L, can you double check your link? It just sends me to my own instead of yours.

  495. I love this idea. I’ve been blessed with a large tax refund and have fulfilled someone’s entire wish list. All the littles are getting books in that home this week. 🙂

  496. What an incredible idea(s) you have, Jenny. You are like Mother Teresa only better. Mother Teresa would approve.

  498. Tyler L – Your link takes me back to my own list. Can you check it out and make sure your link is ok?

  499. I’d been doing well for such a long time, and then had a really bad slide back into depression this past week. Not quite as low as I was, but still could use some extra light this week. I’d love either of Jenny’s books, and promise to share it with others after reading!

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/9LMR38VBKLDK/ref=topnav_lists_2

    (And if any buy-ee feels comfortable providing their address in return, I’d love to mail a thank you!)

  501. Kelsey, just to let you know that someone in snowy Colorado hopes this book helps in all the ways that it can.

  502. Sarah, one of your books is coming soon! I picked the first one I saw on your list, and it seems like you must really be in need of this one. Your post struck me, and I’m sending air hugs from Colorado. It’s all going to be ok. <3

  503. Thank you so much to my book donor! I’m seriously in tears from your generosity. You are all amazing people.

  504. Buying a few books for others is the best feeling- thanks for this opportunity. The last few years have been a huge struggle and your books are one of the tools I’ve used to dig out from the bad times and laugh during the good times. Your projects and belief in everyone else is a real inspiration, Jenny.

  510. Purple Haired Liz #491 I’m sending you the whole Harry Potter set because everyone should have them. I’m also sending you a duplicate Chamber of Secrets because Amazon wouldn’t let me remove it and still send the other books to you. I know you can help it find a good home!

  511. I have 3 books in mine, but I only want one of the 3. Any of the 3. Its howls moving castle. Ive had these books on my to buy list for months but everytime I go to buy them, something else comes up and the money has to go towards that. Thank you.

    https://amzn.com/w/2C8D3QA6F3GUI

  512. I need a copy of Furiously Happy, like whoa. It really is awesome, and I relate to so much of it. And coloring books… seriously, adult coloring books are so great!

    Between school, dealing with mental health stuff, taking care of my (awesome!) kiddo by myself during the week because my husband’s job hasn’t let him switch shifts yet, potentially moving… yeah, there’s a lot going on, and money’s ridiculously tight. (I felt guilty spending $3 on a pair of trouser socks today, even though my dress shoes were chewing up my feet, if that’s any indication.) Someday, when I’m done with school, I’m definitely going to pay forward all the kindnesses that have been shown to me!

    http://smile.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/KA1TLOMAQO5B

  513. This may be an unwelcome suggestion, but Ima gonna do it for the good of the world. I was able to read Furiously Happy as an audiobook for free through my local library. It’s very easy. For iPhones at least, you just download an app called Overdrive, then connect to your library and put in your library card number, and voila! Free books! You can checkout up to four at a time for fourteen days each. And listening to Jenny read the book is an absolute JOY!! I really, really loved it and I cried when it was over. So, for Jenny’s book and for lots of other great books, for all you economically disadvantaged peeps (or cheap peeps like me), try your local library. I think audiobooks ROCK!!!

  514. Sharon/Sion – your book is on the way! #364 – though I fear you added one that is backordered – it said it will ship in September!!! Still, with love <3

  515. Books were purchased for me and I needed to say thank you so much. I’m humbled and touched by the generosity. It is very heartening to read the comments and to get to witness the selfless kindness and understanding of this community. Thank you Jenny for providing this opportunity.

  516. Christie (commenter 485), your book will arrive Friday!
    Hope it’s a ray of sunshine this weekend for you!

  520. Bipolar- though a good suggestion in theory I couldn’t get a library copy in any format, the waiting lists are hundreds of people long. I suspect a lot of us have run into that issue :p

  521. To whomever sent along a book, I am soooo thankful. I tried panning through the comments to give credit but don’t see it. Thank you thank you. It will be paid forward!

  524. I put Furiously Happy on my very lengthy book wish list, and posted…hoping for Furiously Happy, but some wonderful stranger purchased five of the books I’d wished for for my son, who will be born in April. I can’t wait to tell him that a beautiful stranger on the internet had such love as to send us those books! Thank you, whomever you are – I am paying it forward as soon as I can find a list that still has books on it! I am planning to write inscriptions in the books you purchased for us, so we never forget where they came from. LoveLoveLove!

  525. Somehow two people seem to have helped me out. I have no way to thank you both directly, so this will have to do: thank you, truly. This means so much to me and I hope to be able to pay it forward very soon! Caroline from #385

  527. ChimeraCat, your Brene Brown book is on its way and should arrive by Feb. 4th 🙂

  529. Alison – You’ll be receiving “Choosing Me Before We”. (It’s a sign… from the universe…) 🙂

  530. This is really amazing! I have a list that’s been accruing items for a while but alas no money. If anyone can help that would be great. I read a lot of YA but I share with 3 kids and usually donate finished items to a local literacy charity. Thank you in advance! http://amzn.com/w/2IJ2CZPXXUWVL

  531. Hello. It is rare that I am in the position to help but today I can. If some fellow Canadian is in need and wants to share their Indigo wish list, I would be send a book.

  534. I’m in a deep hole trying desperately to dig myself out. I have lots of books I’m too anxious to read, including Furiously Happy. But, I realized it would make me feel so much better if I helped someone else feel better. The only problem with this little plan is that I can’t find a wish list with any books left! This community is full of awesome people and that alone makes me feel better. (I’m going to keep looking)

  535. Hello. It is rare that I am in the position to help but today I can. If some fellow Canadian is in need and wants to share their Indigo wish list, I would be send a book.

  537. Jenny, this is an amazing idea. Honestly your first book saved my life, it helped me realize that there are other people that are going through some of the same difficulties that I am and helped me realize I am not alone. My parents have just separated and I am trying to put myself through college while being there for my brother. I think we could both use a good book right now, thank you so much.

    I have had 15 surgeries in the past 14 years because of ongoing health problems and have been waiting on disability for 3 years! I cant work and have no income. I have hunted & fished all my life, I grew up on a farm and am very handy…so thankfully, I managed to still raise my two sons after my husband passed in 2002. In doing so I have exhausted all my savings and retirement. So I am tapped out and unable to pirchase your books. I have had social anxieties since as long as I can remember. I have borrowed your audiobooks from my library thru my Overdrive app but I have to return those. I have never been one to ask for help, so even something like this is extremely hard for me to do. But I would love a copy of your book Furiously Happy. I’ll end this here, while there is a lot more to my story, I am not ready to share it right now. Thanks

  541. Jackie Kalbow #506, wish granted. Should be in your mailbox on Friday. I know you’ll love them!

  542. Great idea, Jenny. You may also want to donate copies to public libraries who don’t have it to reach people who not only can’t afford to buy the book, but who don’t use computers. (Personally, I’m good. I bought both the book and audiobook for my library.)

  543. Kylie and sticklady1, check your links…they’re not linking directly to your lists, just sending users to their own lists.

  545. 2broke2choke, sending a second note in hopes that you’ll see it: your link takes me to my own wish list. Would you please repost the link?

    P.S. I know reaching out is hard, but I’m glad you did. You’re safe here.

  547. Jocelyn #537–you need to associate a shipping address with your wishlist 🙂

  548. I read Jenny’s first book and loved it so much. I’ve had a really rough year financially, and have been looking at this book and waiting for things to stabilize before I can justify spending $13 on something that’s a want rather than a need 🙁 if anyone wanted to get Furiously Happy for me it would legit make my week.
    Wish list is for an ebook, since it’s easier and cheaper.

    Link: https://amzn.com/w/1C4UIR1T9CG6L

  551. Ugh I think my comment got eaten. Anyhoo, thanks Jenny for setting this up. I hope to embody even a small amount of how kind and warm you are. I gave and I hope the person that receives the book enjoys it!

  552. I don’t want to use pity to curry favor with anyone. But this is the truth: Today was a rough day. I was physically sick, and found out, after the second interview, that I was rejected by a permanent job I badly need. This prompted a shame spiral, but no suicidal thoughts – so progress?. I went to the local bookstore to calm myself down, and found myself staring at this book longingly. It was $20, and I couldn’t justify spending that much. One has to eat, and my savings are going to dry up soon. It will get better. I will find somewhere that appreciates me for me, and I won’t have to pretend to be someone that I am not. One day. It will come. Thank you Jenny. I saw you in New York, almost had a panic attack at the Barnes and Noble, but I made it through the line and you saw me. I think you could tell I was struggling because you wrote some incredibly nice and supportive things in Furiously Happy. I read that dedication sometimes and it helps. Maybe I’m just one of millions of your readers, lost in a sea of anonymity, and you write something like that for everyone, because you’re decent and kind, but, in my magical thinking world, that dedication makes me feel like I matter. Just a twinge. https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=17PEWNG9YTA6R&type=wishlist

  553. It took me forever to find a list that wasn’t already empty. This makes me happy.

  554. Make sure you double check your list to make sure you have a book on your wish list. And that you have an address associated with it. Happy reading!

  555. Wow, this is amazing! I would love for a book to be sent anonymously to my mom. She has been suffering from depression from a long time and I do my best to help and support her, but sometimes she really struggles. She spent half her life taking care of me, and as a new mom myself I am struggling a bit financially, but I want to take care of her too! Let’s see if this works….

    this is an amazing idea/offer, and this is an amazingly kind and generous community. I expect absolutely nothing out of this for myself (though it would be awesome, since I’m still job hunting and haven’t been able to afford the latest book), but whether something shows up at my door or not, I’m absolutely going to be paying it forward.
    <3

    if you ever doubt the positive good you do in the world, Jenny, just look at what an amazing load of people you’ve brought together!

    if I do wind up with a sweet, generous book-giver, thank you in advance to you. it will be so very appreciated! 🙂

  558. Jennifer #519…sending you love and light. Keep reaching out when you need to.

    I have been waiting to buy Furiously Happy but have been trying to hold back on spending money on the unnecessary items. (why am I saying books are an extra expense!! yikes!) With planning a wedding and trying to pay off debt or not create more at least I’m trying to watch my spending.

    I’ve given copies of Let’s Pretend this Never Happened as gifts for the past couple years. Can’t wait to read this one!

  561. I just want to say I wish we were all together and could have a glass of wine (or lovely sparkling water if you are a non-drinker) together. I love you, and this page, and you completely made my day, week, month, possibly year.

    Those of you struggling, know there are people out there who care.

  563. My fist link didn’t work so I’m trying again. Fingers crossed this one works because my child isn’t going to give me another chance to try again. I spent all of my book allowance on Furiously Happy and have already passed it on. I would love something new to read for me and something to read to my daughter before bed.

  567. @purple haired Liz I had purchased the one book on the wish list but then I saw someone else had bought the whole set for you which is so amazing. I tried to cancel the order but if you get extra copies, please pay it forward. Best wishes to you & your daughter. Every child deserves the magic of Harry Potter.

  569. I love this idea! I’d also love to buy someone a book they are in need of, but so far everyone’s list that I’ve looked at has either already been purchased or not have an address. I hope people will update their list to add addresses. Also set everyone has a bright and shining week because you thought of this lovely idea.

  572. Haven’t read any of the comments. Need no books from you. I just want you to know you’re book is currently downloaded on my Kindle via library loan. Thank you so much for all that you do.

  573. Books were my only refuge growing up. I don’t want them to be my sons only refuge, but I want him to understand how incredibly important that they are and what they can be. I REALLY want to read Furiously Happy but from what I’ve seen, 30 copies will go soooo fast. So, it’s my tax time item to look forward to 😉

    https://amzn.com/w/1IHNGLNQ2C7SC

  575. Whomever picked up my list (#486),THANK YOU so much!! ❤️❤️❤️ You just sent a care package to my beautiful little sister who’s about 1200 miles away from me and I miss her dearly. She needed a pick-me-up. Thanks again…and again and again. ❤️❤️❤️

  576. Thank you thank you thank you anonymous person who bought me and my baby our books! The thought that someone would do something so nice for a complete stranger is just amazing! I can’t wait to read my book and read all the Curious George stories to my little man!!!

  577. I discovered “Furiously Happy” somewhere on the internet, in an article talking about some of the best new books of 2015. It sounded just up my alley (didn’t mean that to sound dirty!), so I endured a long wait list at my local library to get a chance to read it. I enjoyed the book so much, that after just a couple of chapters, I went out and got a copy to give to my sister for Christmas. We both share your sense of humor and battle some of the same demons, she especially so. My partner heard me laughing and going on about the book so much that she went and bought me “Let’s Pretend This Never Happened” for Christmas, and I am savoring that right now! I’d love a copy of ” Furiously Happy” at some point, but I was lucky enough to have already read it, so I’ll let this opportunity go by so someone who hasn’t read it can enjoy your book. Once everyone in the world has read it though, I hope you have another giveaway. I’ve never hated to return a book to the library so much. I miss that raccoon smiling at me everyday!

  578. Kylie, when you’ve got your list open, click on the share button and it should give you a pop-up box that has the link.

  579. Hey 🙂 this is the first time I have every posted here but I could really use your book. I’ve been having a rough time lately and could use a bit of a pick me up. I’ve been healing from a broken ankle (my cast just came off today which is a good thing!) and I just found out my mother is very sick. I have severe social anxiety and find it hard to leave the house a lot of the time so anything I can do inside is a good thing! I have taken up amigurumi which I highly recommend to anyone who is crafty- it is a lot of fun. anyways… here a link to my wishlist. keeping my fingers crossed! http://www.amazon.ca/gp/registry/wishlist/353K4L028AOP7/ref=cm_wl_huc_title

  581. Books were my only refuge when I was a kid. I don’t want them to be my son’s only refuge, but I want him to appreciate literature and understand how important literature can be…and what it can, if that makes sense. I really, really want to read Furiously Happy, but from what I’ve seen 30 copies will go extremely fast. So, this will be a a tax time gift for myself 😉

    https://amzn.com/w/1IHNGLNQ2C7SC

  584. I really want to read Furiously Happy because I think it will be good for me. Things are improving for me in a lot of ways but I’m in a tight place budget-wise and have been holding off buying it since before it came out.

    https://amzn.com/w/2EI0LS85Z9TZY

    Thanks for this experiment, oh wondrous bloggess!

  587. YAY FOR BOOK #3! You can do it (of course), but take your time and enjoy the journey of it.

  590. I have already have copies of both of Jenny’s books, so I don’t need another one. However, I suffer from really horrible anxiety and depression, and one of the things that helps me through it is baseball. I’m in the middle of a years long project where I go to see the Detroit Tigers play at every single ballpark in the MLB (I have 13 parks already with four more scheduled for this year!). I play fantasy baseball (and have two different teams). It helps me stay focused on why I need to stay here – I have a goal to meet.

    Well, this book can help me with that, and I’ve been thinking about getting it for myself but it just seemed frivolous.

    If you’re a baseball fan, and want to help another baseball fan get through the days? Please consider this request, and I’ll definitely pay it forward once I can find a list that still has anything on it!

  601. It isn’t just James Garfield that is a saint-in-the-making, you know! We’re still struggling a great deal, but the blessings bestowed upon us by that Christmas endeavor have been our hand-holds to keep pulling ourselves out of the metaphorically chiched quicksand. In fact, our son has been rationing out his gifts over the weeks — there are still two left unopened! (This is why I haven’t posted a public thank-you gallery to share, yet.)

    As a family of bibliophiles (and, ok, since “Furiously Happy” has still been waiting on my wish list since then), I can’t help hoping for a little more luck and kindness. I have three books on this new wishlist, at the moment — one for each of our birthdays. I’ll be scanning the lists to see if anyone both needs something we have, and lives close enough to simply hand it to….just because we can’t buy anything, doesn’t mean we might not still be able to help!

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2OLB9LF8WNCVQ/ref=cm_wl_list_o_7?

  602. Maybe a weird request, and possibly way too late in the game, but for those that are asking for books other than Jenny’s, can you put the name in comment? I am looking for book suggestions and by the time I go in to check out people’s requests, and maybe send a book, they have already been bought and nothing is listed on the wishlist. Or maybe a suggestion for next time? Because I have a feeling this amazingness will happen again!

  604. You should name book 3 “A Box of Live Kittens.” I would definitely buy extra copies so that I could tell people I was going to send them “A Box of Live Kittens,” just to see how many would freak out thinking I meant actual kittens.

    I have & adore both your books. You are amazing, and so much stronger than you think. Thank you for sharing so much of your life with us. It has helped more than you will ever know.

  607. you all are amazing, I can’t find a wish on this list that hasn’t been fulfilled!

  610. On the subject of book sharing: My husband and I found let’s pretend this never happened through a friend or maybe i picked it up on the clearance rack at half priced books. No matter. We have both read it several times and have lent (given) many copies away. We never get them back because there is always one more person who just has to read it. I don’t think I’d laughed or cried harder while reading a book. When furiously happy came out I was so excited that I purchased it brand new in hard back. I’ve never ever purchased a brand new hardback book. Since then 4 other people have read our copy and we have purchased a second. Thank you for your words and insight for your transparency and your humor. Both books came at a time when I needed your story. So thank you for sharing.

    Ps: I kinda love you. In a sister from another mister sort of way.

    Pps: I may or may not tell everyone that we’re besties…my actual bestie doesn’t mind because you are well you and she figures we could share you. So welcome to the family and you have a place to hide out in southern Indiana if you ever want to see corn country.

  611. Just wanted to post a huge thank you to the person(s) who bought both of Jenny’s books from my wish list. I’d only hoped to get one, and am floored to be getting both. Thank you for shining some light in my life. I’ll be sharing the books with others in my life who I know can use some light too. And I’ll be saving up to be able to help another person (or two!) the next time we have a community giving event!

  613. Anon #588 Joshilyn Jackson. she brought me here. Her writing is a style all its own… Southern gothic. Give her a read. Her newest is out on February 16th.

  616. So excited about this. I have been in a major depressive episode for a couple of years. I got out of inpatient and am now in an outpatient program. We watched some videos on Brene Brown and I am hooked on her words. I would be so grateful to receive any book on my list. Thank you!

  628. I don’t post here much, but I just wanted to say you’re awesome for doing this for folks. Many a deserving person will get a great book! Stay Awesome! You’re good at it. 🙂

  630. You are the awesomest! When you are done giving out books, let me know and I will send one to someone in need.

  631. Tuesdays are the days of All The Therapy. Me in the morning, my five-year-old in the afternoon. I didn’t see this until just now when I hauled myself into the office after bedtime to go get in another hour or two of work before I fall over.. well, yeah, it’s been a rough day, so I made a wishlist. One book for my amazing five-year-old daughter who’s braver than most adults I know, one book for me because books make everything better.

    https://amzn.com/w/ERYMB2H3CGKY

    Thank you for doing this. Kindnesses make this exhausting world a better place.

  632. Have we broken Amazon? I tried to buy some more books but I’m getting an error message when I try to check out. It looks like it’s just in some areas according to downdetector so if it gives you a weird error just try it again in a bit. I’ve seen it happen before and they usually fix it within an hour. Just an fyi in case anyone else is getting the same thing.

  633. what an amazing community!

    I just posted a little while ago with a promise to “pay it forward”, whether or not anything was done for me. and while I’m not in a position to do much, a friend of mine who just started her residency in Buffalo, NY JUST posted this about http://prescriptionforwarmth.com/ (Prescription for Warmth (P4W) is a non-profit group founded by medical students at the University at Buffalo School of Medicine. The purpose of P4W is to purchase quality low-cost wholesale hats, gloves, and socks for frostbite victims and those in need in Buffalo, NY hospitals and free clinics.) and I’ve donated a small amount. talk about timing! 😀 <3

    so, while I’d love some motivational/directional stuff for maybe helping with the job hunt, if it comes down to books or helping this cause, I think I’d rather help them. but I’ll let you awesome people out there decide. thank you in advance, whatever you do–you’re here, so you’re clearly awesome! 😀

    I hope this is the correct link this time, thank you April
    I have had 15 surgeries in the past 14 years because of ongoing health problems and have been waiting on disability for 3 years! I cant work and have no income. I have hunted & fished all my life, I grew up on a farm and am very handy…so thankfully, I managed to still raise my two sons after my husband passed in 2002. In doing so I have exhausted all my savings and retirement. So I am tapped out and unable to pirchase your books. I have had social anxieties since as long as I can remember. I have borrowed your audiobooks from my library thru my Overdrive app but I have to return those. I have never been one to ask for help, so even something like this is extremely hard for me to do. But I would love a copy of your book Furiously Happy. I’ll end this here, while there is a lot more to my story, I am not ready to share it right now. Thanks

    (I kept getting error messages when I tried to by physical books this last hour but this one went through. Not sure if it’s because it’s an e-version or they’ve fixed the problem. Either way, it should be on it’s way. 🙂 ~ Jenny)

  635. Amazon is broken. Tried to buy books and there is a weird message. Did we do that? If so that takes us all to a whole new level of awesomeness!!!!

    Jenny H.

  636. Thank you for the book, Anonymous #532, it means a lot.

    Thank you to Blizzful #558, I will try. Reaching out is one of those things that I’m really bad at, but making more of an effort to do so, regardless of what my brain tries to tell me.

  637. Thank you so much for doing this now, heading into the grimmest part of winter. After the strain of the holiday just past, and the dread of holidays yet to come, a little unlooked for treat is such a treasure. For those looking for book recommendations, I’ve got Gormenghast by Mervyn Peake on my list, the middle of a trilogy about another gloriously insane dynasty. I’d also recommend picking up anything Terry Pratchett, the man was hilarious and righteous and good. Thanks again!

    https://www.amazon.ca/gp/registry/wishlist/2EC373GGOQ2LY/ref=topnav_lists_2

  638. Sent a few books out. So glad I could be on the helping end this time around, Thank you for doing this Jenny! Happy Reading Guys!! 🙂

  639. What a lovely idea! Generally, I would participate in something like this by sending someone your book, but finances are such that I can’t afford to. I’m much more comfortable being the giver, not the receiver. Also, no joke, it;s my birthday tomorrow. I’ve been feeling out-of-sorts about it, worried and broody. Basically disconnected.from myself and my loved ones – I call it the depression wall. So I am throwing this out there – I would love a copy of Furiously Happy for my birthday and, more importantly, I would appreciate and treasure the gesture. And don’t worry, if I am picked, I plant to pay it forward when I am able to.

    Thank you Bloggess for putting this together. and thank you in advance to whoever reads this and may respond.

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/3RZFIE6TR53V/ref=cm_wl_huc_view

    PS Nope, haven’t read it yet either. I’m #13 on the hold list at my local library for it.

  640. Is there a way to delete or change something in a comment once it is posted? The first link I used was apparently wrong, so I had to repost with a different link. If my second post with different link is still wrong, I guess the computer wins & apparently I’m not meant to get a gift of such an awesome book

  645. Jenny, as always, you’re amazing. This post is so timely for me for so many reasons. (And bless you for putting Good Omens on your list!)

    Here’s mine, containing Furiously Happy. Your writing always makes me feel better about my crazy. (Because you still manage to have such a good attitude, do such wonderful things, and tell such amazing stories!)

    I never buy books for myself anymore between my three kids I always put it off. I’ve followed you for years and you always manage to make me laugh until I cry. Which is a good thing. You’re amazing and if I was in a better position I would buy books for everyone! Thank you Jenny for being you.

  649. I have yet to read either of your books. But they look fun. I’ve been in a depressed funk for about 3 weeks and love this idea. I was able to buy one of your books for one of the people on Facebook and it made me feel better.

  653. Thank You so much, jamesjen. Your kindness has really boosted my spirits! Thank you Jenny. If & when I get my disability, I plan on paying it forward! You are all an amazing group…The Bloggess for President!😂💖

  658. Does anyone have interest in reading “A Man Called Ove” I just finished it and it really spoke to me. Would love to share the joy I got from reading it with someone.

  659. Jenny this is a great idea! Love your books and loved meeting you in Santa Cruz at your book signing!

    As a person who is pretty much bedridden with a chronic illness (Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Go Zebras!) I read A LOT and it’s hard to get to the library or afford books on a fixed income. I loooong this idea and I’ll definitely make a bit of room in the budget to buy someone else a book.

  663. This is a fabulous idea! I’ve got your first book and will pass it along as soon as I’m finished. I would do the same with this one. I could use a little bit of ‘take me away’ 🙂

  664. Hi, I’m Sarah. I could really use a book. To be honest, I can afford to buy a book and I’m sure others are more deserving. But I’ve been suffering from postpartum depression for 10 months and I feel so painfully alone. I could use a hug. I could use a friend. I could use the comfort of knowing that someone out there somewhere cared to send me a book. To send me hope, to send a funny little escape from reality. Just to be nice, to care, for me. I’m not sure if I did the list correctly or not but if I did, here it should be:
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ls/?ie=UTF8&lid=3SO3IGPHI3ZCA

  666. Any way to know how many books were given out? I’ll admit to purchasing more than one person’s request. Best thing I’ve done thus far this year!

    P.S. Is there anyway to tie this into Groundhog’s Day? That little bastard is so cute!

  667. I made a list with my husband’s account because I don’t have an account (or a job) but I got all confused and maybe did it wrong and someone should teach me interneting. Also, I think I’m too late to the party anyway. But this was an awesome idea!

  670. Hurray for breaking Amazon!

    The Bad Thing That Happened To Me That A Book Could Help Heal:
    Three months ago, after a horrific, drawn-out process, I was excommunicated from my church for the unforgivable sin of Ecumenism. Vonnegut was the only human who could pull me out of the abyss and keep me from losing complete faith in humanity and turning into an irrevocably bitter, angry, empty thirty-something whose only solace lay in blasting the Lithium station forever and ever.

    Here’s my book request: https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/277QZHB72ZNT

    (Thank you for using your powers for good and for awesome, Jenny.)

  675. I actually already had a book wishlist on Amazon, so hey. I would love to read the book by Bill Nye on my wishlist. I have been in a dark place for a while and my meds haven’t been working. I think it will make me happy.

  679. I am not sure if my other comment was sent after it asked me to log in with my WordPress account. Anywho, I actually already had a book wishlist on Amazon, so hey. I would love to read the book by Bill Nye on my wishlist. I have been in a dark place for a while and my meds haven’t been working. I think it will make me happy.

  687. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/registry/wishlist/ref=sv_wl_0 wanted a few new books for Christmas for when I’m having a bad day, got furiously happy which is wonderful but would love the other book I didn’t get if anyone is so inclined. Left a full time job in December that made me miserable and have a great new job which is awesome but it’s only 2 days a week so money is a lot more tight. Thanks for the help and hopefully when the next one rolls around, I will be able to repay the favour! Lots of love!

  689. Thank you so much to whomever bought my babies a book, you have no idea how happy it makes me during a hard time and how unbelievably happy they will be to get them!

  690. Yay, You! 🙂 Just smiling and reading and enjoying the joy… I think I’m Furiously Happy. Hmmnn. I had a great day at work, too. And I pinched myself in front of a witness to make sure it was real. Thanks, Jenny for keeping people hopeful and helping me find new measures of content 🙂

  696. Oh Jenny you never fail to amaze. I adore you and your ideas. As someone who lives for reading but hasn’t bought herself a new book in over a year thanks to unemployment, this is such a gift, even just for the chance of a new book to love. <3

    Here’s my list: http://amzn.com/w/Z4BV5ZMFV4RT

  697. Thank you Melissa (492)! The kindness of this special tribe I’ve found here is truly amazing. Honestly, that someone out there understands is what feels the best. (Not to mention that you’re willing to ship to Canada!)

  698. Thank you, Jenny. I don’t know how to express the depth of my thankfulness for you and your blog. It has helped me through so many dark times. It almost always makes me cry – sometimes in joy and other times in sadness. You are fabulous.

  706. This is so cool! I’d like for my kiddo to be able to finish the Lunar Chronicles series. She generally doesn’t like reading … she was born deaf, uses cochlear implants to hear, but is still a bit behind on language and reading … so when I got her Cinder and she she read it in two days, I was surprised and thrilled! She’s an 8th-grader, so finding something she likes is often hit or miss. 😂 I just want to continue to expand her vocabulary, her comprehension and help her LOVE reading. Thank you!

    http://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/177NTM6OHI5LO

  708. I hope it’s not too late! I would love “Furiously Happy”. I’m not working right now and I’ve recently moved to a new town and am having a really hard time finding a community to connect with. Of course my anxiety and depression don’t make that easy. If I get the book I promise to try and read it in public. Maybe it will prompt a discussion with a stranger? Here’s my wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=2EW29LN40FQJ&type=wishlist

    Thank you so much!

  710. (I have no idea if it’ll let me post a pic? Gonna try anyway…)

    Assuming the picture shows, that’s my Kahn dog. He’s 10 now, and he’s spent the last 3 of those years dealing with epilepsy. He’s pretty awesome about it, definitely a trooper. We’ve made do so far, and then when I went in on Monday to pick up his monthly medicine refill, I found out that the cost has suddenly tripled since my December refill. It’s now, literally, more than my truck payment. Not gonna lie, I stood there and cried in the vet’s office, and almost again today talking to my Boss about it. The vet is trying to help find a way to bring the cost down or switch his treatment, because $200+ just isn’t possible for me. I’m also concerned with his age and general health that we may be coming to the end of our time together. I almost don’t want to take him for his checkup in a few weeks because I’m so afraid of what we’re going to find out.

    The book I picked is a biography of Madeline Kahn, for 2 reasons – I named him after her since she’s my favorite actress ever, and because she never fails to make me smile. It’s kinda pricey though, which makes me feel a bit guilty, so I put Tina Fey’s book on there too. I’ll move Maddie’s bio out if Tina’s is bought cause I’m not trying to be greedy. And I’ll come back to this post when things settle down, hopefully soon, and pay it forward.
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2SUVK9RMNN3QK/ref=cm_wl_list_o_6?

    Jenny, I love your heart. (You can keep it, I’ll admire from afar.)

  712. #662 I’m married to a Vascular Zebra so I understand what you’re going through. (When he was diagnosed I was like Ehlers-Danlos what?) I’m attempting to send you a book – but Amazon is being a pain in the behind! Hopefully it will be on it’s way soon!

  713. I may be too late to the party but I thought I’d try anyway 🙂
    I made an account on dayzeroproject.com and one of my goals is to finish a Keri Smith book so I chose Wreck This Book
    It would be the very first thing I get to check off my list so that would be awesome, and it’s on sale! 🙂
    Another goal on my list is to pay it forward which I’d love to do through one of these giveaways when I can financially.
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=2ZXBC5DGGWHJB&type=wishlist

    PS Thanks for everything Jenny, you keep me going on the not so great days.

  715. I have read Furiously Happy and it is now one of my top three loved books of all time and I think I will stay on that list indefinitely. I even splurged and bought myself a signed copy. I recommend it to almost everyone I know. I will be more then happy to help one or more people from your long list of comments but I think you’re right, I think we broke amazon.

  716. To the person who has bought me a book, thank you!! I’m not crying I swear, it’s just this cold!

    Jenny, you are awesome organising this, thank you as well!

  717. My list is ridiculously long because I read A LOT and I use the amazon wishlist as a “ooh I need to check and see if the library has it or possibly buy it list”.

    Cept cos I live in NZ and the exchange rate and international freight SUCK I tend to buy ebooks – much more affordable.

    But I REALLY would love to have a copy of Furiously Happy in print so I can share it with all my crazy lovely wonderful friends who will ADORE it I am sure!

  718. This made my year. The power of people coming together for each other lifts my heart. I have one chapter left in the book so I choose something that will help with my goal of getting physically healthy as I’m always trying to achieve the mentally part 😉

  722. This is such an amazing idea.

    My husband and I are coming up on our one year wedding anniversary. Money is tight right now. The Princess Bride holds a very special place in our hearts, and I’m having to choose between the book on my list and the illustrated anniversary version as a gift for my husband. It would be amazing to get this book so I can buy him the other. I hope this link works. 🙂

  724. Amazon is still down and they say it’ll be at least another hour so I’m going to sleep and in the morning we can start again. You can still make wish lists. You just get errors if you try to checkout so lots of people (including me) can’t buy anything on the wish lists until they fix it. Just an FYI. Love to you all.

  726. I would like to request the book ‘Life Is Trichy.’ My trichotillomania started when I was 10 years old. I’m just now acknowledging this issue after dealing with it for 25 years. I was doing well on my own, but the holidays were mentally taxing and pulled out most of the hair that was finally starting to grow back. I would be so grateful if someone were to gift this book to me now. https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/I3XAX5HU95BF/ref=cm_wl_list_o_1?

  727. Like so many others, your first book helped me through some rough patches. I would dearly love to get a copy of the new book too. Right now, it can’t happen on my budget. Too many bad things keep happening and they just keep costing more money. I fight every day to remember that depression lies, there are people who love me, and that eventually there is no where to go but up. I just wish the pit wasn’t so deep. Please keep writing, because you help. You help me and many others.

    And just in case, my wish list. I use the library a lot, but ebooks are still not as common as physical books. And with the limited space in my apartment, ebooks work better.

    ttp://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/24UI3R7B147O

  728. For Stormy O’Dell and the pdf link for toxic parents–thank you. Greatly appreciated.

  735. I’d love a copy. I live in Flint, Michigan, and literally all my extra money goes toward bottled water. The poison tap water made me feel a connection to Jenny’s descriptions of her own water when she was a child. I also use her anxiety wig technique (except I can’t afford a wig, so I have a massive “anxiety beanie”) that I wear every time I have to meet new people. I have severe GAD, PTSD, and depression, and Jenny’s books keep me anchored when I feel lost in the dark. If someone wants to be so generous as to get me a copy, I promise I will pay it forward somehow, sometime.

    This is the link I got when I shared the list to my email.

  737. Oddly enough someone introduced to your second book today, and let me read the first few pages of Furiously Happy in their copy. Just the beginning had me both choking up and wanting to cry from laughter. I feel like for the first time ever someone has actually put into words something that has always seemed so inexplainable to me. Your words are the gift that I needed to pull me out of my own head for a moment, so thank you.

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1QZDXHL6FSRE8/ref=cm_wl_huc_title

  740. I am a very lucky girl with a wonderful mothers who saw you’re book and knew it was for me. I’m reading it out loud to her and we are basically having the best time, laughing and sharing. I am on disability due to crippling depression and anxiety plus medical issues but everyone knows books are my favorite thing so I recieve many from friends and family. I can not afford to buy someone a book, I wish I could, but I have already promised to send your book on to my friend in great need when I’m done and asked that she too will pass it on as well. As so forth. And so your book will hopefully come into the hands of many others who need it this way. I treasure that you are alive here on earth at the same time as me and that you wrote your books to help save my soul.

  741. Thank you! thank you to whoever bought my daughter books. I am so incredibly grateful. She will be ecstatic when she gets to open them on her birthday.
    THANK YOU.

  742. KA #631: Your books are on their way. I hope you and your daughter enjoy them. 😎

  746. @ Sarah #664 – you are not alone. Postpartum depression is one of the most soul-sucking things in the world, on top of parenting a baby which is one of the most physically and emotionally exhausting things in the world. If I could figure out a way to send you a hug and a cup of tea and eight hours of uninterrupted sleep through the internet, I would do it in a heartbeat – but since we don’t have that technology yet, I will instead tell you this: IT GETS BETTER. I promise. And you don’t know me, but if you need a friend, I’m pretty easy to find on the internets and I made it out alive and I keep odd hours and I don’t bite unless I’m asked nicely or recovering from general anesthesia.

    It gets better. Depression lies. Reach out when you need help. There are a lot of us mamas out there who’ve lived through it and made it out the other side – you are not alone in this struggle.

  747. If a like equals a purchase, the person I bought a book for will get two copies (692). I already had the book in my cart, and didn’t check the registry before completing the purchase. So yay for me being an idiot who can’t even do charity right. 🙁

  749. I accidentally had it set as the kindle edition on my wishlist and someone bought it, so I wonder if I could gift it to someone else who wants an ebook copy?

  751. Amazon is finally fixed. Genna and Kara, your books should arrive by Friday. Let’s hope we don’t break Amazon again, but if we do its for a damn good reason!

  755. I am anonymous 296 and i want to thank whoever fulfilled my book wish. I have GAD and depression and am in a physically isolated setting with my dementia ridden Mother and it is so so easy to think I am alone. (I have this weird fear of dying alone and squirrels eating my face.) This book will be a physical reminder that a.) despite all the grossness in the world there are so many people who want to help others out; b.) I am not alone, and c.) that asking for help when I’m in a lonely and dark place didn’t cause me to shatter into a million pieces.
    TL;DR You (and Jenny and others on this comment section) have given me hope that i can touch.
    I am looking forward to helping others next time

  756. I really loved listening to Jenny read both of her books on Audible. If there’s a way to figure out how to share it with fellow audiobook listeners, I’d be more than happy to share. It’s a joy to listen to Jenny and laugh out loud while people on the train stare at you 🙂

  757. Tamar (#s 270 and 312) – you have two books coming in the next two weeks. Sending care and strength to you!

  758. Anon (comment #753) a copy of FH is on its way to you – should be there by Friday. Enjoy and good luck with work!

  760. So I figured out Amazon and now Gabs (#710) you should have something heading your way!

  763. As one Jenny to another, I want to sincerely thank you for doing this. I am struggling with issues of fibromyalgia affecting my mobility and stamina. It’s been a tough thing to accept that I am now retired whether I wanted to be or not, and that the things I hoped I might fill my time with are difficult to do because of the fibro.

    My husband and I returned to my hometown of Syracuse, NY in 2010 after my father died. We had lived in New Hampshire since we got married – that was where Bill lived when we met. In the process of moving back to Syracuse to be near the rest of the family, our finances crumbled, and we were forced to abandon a storage locker full of belongings, including items I had saved as far back as childhood. Most missed of these are many, many books that I had collected over the years.

    The ones I miss most, I think, and the ones I wish I could turn to again, are the works of Robert Heinlein. From Stranger in a Strange Land, through to the numerous books about Lazarus Long and the long-lived Howard Families, Heinlein, more than anyone, could carry me away to a universe where people loved one another, cared about each other, and sought peace.

    I wish I could be the one giving books. I am not entirely comfortable asking, though clearly I am getting past that. I would be so grateful, however, if I could read these books again.

    My wishlist can be found at:

    My sincere thanks to you, Jenny, and my humble regards to all of the generous spirits who flock to this blog.

  764. Just to say thank you for being so amazing, Jenny. I live in France and people here with mental illness or disorders are still considered so taboo. Not to be talked about (this despite that the population takes the highest percentage of anti-depressants in Europe, talk about the Rory in the room!). Thanks for proving that wrong and for this amazing community for rising up to help each other. I am so proud to be a part of it. Books-giving should become an international holiday. Maybe to replace Valentine’s Day? 😉

  766. Thank you so much for doing this. Not only did I get a copy of Furiously Happy but another book on my wishlist. The generosity has made my heart soar. Thank you Jenny and the two amazing women who gifted books to me.

  768. For those looking to PIF – these are the possible still wanting as of 1:30am my time. I’ve divided it into a few sections, and in the interest of brevity I tried to weed out duplicates, broken links, and I only included the post # and the link. I hope my OCD helps some of you out and I apologize for any mistakes – I know this post is a bit ridiculous but this is how I roll 😉

  770. To Anonymous message #662: Your Kim Harrison is in the mail and should be arriving on the 9th. I love the stuffing out of that series and I hope it brings you many happy hours of reading.

  771. Tamar (post 270) I hope you enjoy your books, and I hope they don’t take too long to arrive.

  774. Nutbunnie (#759), there’s a little something on its way to you. Happy Booksgiving to the whole tribe!

  778. So I won’t go into all the reasons why this would make a world of difference for me. As with most things it’s a long story. Suffice it to say the short version is that I am thousands of miles from home and it’s been about 2 weeks since I had an actual conversation with someone. I’m trying to make the most of this opportunity, but to be honest I’m afraid that I might not make it through as the financial burdens feel overwhelming and the social ones make me want to run back to where home once was. It’s the scariest feeling but I’m proud of myself for at least trying. All of that said, being able to escape in to something would feels very necessary right now. I set up the book that I would really love as a Kindle delivery because I haven’t been here long enough to figure out the mail delivery system. Nor do I know if there’s anyone overseas that’s around to partake. Anyway I’m not sure if it will get approved because it’s not through the actual mail system per Jenny’s instructions. But I’m kind of feeling blue and so I thought I would give it a shot. The details to the list are as follows and if anyone sees this and then decides to help please know that I am ever grateful. Hi. Check out this list: https://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/2O5I38RD9ZV2M/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ip_wl_o_d1DSwbK7W2F94

  780. I’m constantly trying to grow my class library. I work in an urban district where we don’t really have money for extra things like new books that aren’t on the curriculum. If anyone would be so inclined to help a bunch of high schoolers grow their love of reading I’d appreciate it. 🙂

    Thank you for always being amazing, Jenny, and for this fabulous idea!! <33

  781. what a fabulous idea. I have been thinking a lot about community building lately, and it is so lovely to see a supportive, understanding community, especially one built around people who struggle as I do. Thank you, Jenny, for sharing yourself in a way that caused this to happen. I’ve gifted a few books and hope that they help their recipients feel less alone.

  782. Anonymous #772 You did that??? You sent it to me here in Brazil??? I’m shaking, I’m shaking I’m shaking. I juat can’t believe it, thank you so very much! It’s so far away, I can’t believe you sent me!! It’s the best gift someone gave in a very good while, because you dont’t know me, you have no idea who I am, and still you did that to me! That’s incredible. I d on’t have words to express myself, really, I’m not sure my words are coherent right now.

    Such a harsh world but we can still all connect no matter from where we are and do incredible things. I know it’s just a book, but actions like that make us believe in mankind once again and its power to change the future.

    Thank you so very much, it means the world to me, I’ve been dying to read Jenny’s book ever since it went out.

    And thank you Jenny for opening up such space. Booksgiving is a complete success! Did you see what you created?? I live in Brazil! And someone that never met me sent me a gift! I’m still shaking I’m still shaking, I’m still shaking..

    My son is a college freshman with much uncertainty and a mom who tries giving advice in hopes of fixing his struggles. Your idea made me think. I need to try a different approach. Send my book lover a book that is disguised as something that is not academic. Unfortunately, purchasing his academic books for second term would leave my thought as just that, without your wonderful platform. Thank you. I am grateful to read your blog and happy for your success.

  785. Pingback: Can we guess how old you are based on the books you have read?: Today in Critical Linking

  787. I own & love both your books, and I love this idea. My wish list is currently made up of books that I have come across in blogs and articles that I have slowly been purchasing for my 5 year old who came out to us last year as gender creative. They are all books about being comfortable with who you are and not hiding your differences. I’d be grateful for any of them. I think it is set up with my address… mobile devices don’t seem to give the option to check.

  788. Steve @ 736–I too struggle mightily with decision-making, so it took me a good 10 minutes to choose which format to send you. What if I send the digital, and he really wanted the paperback so he could easily lend it to friends and family, or make little margin notes in it? What if I send the paperback, and he’s like, “Crap, now I have to carry this thing around, the digital would have been so much better”? But I really, really want you to have that good day you need. So I sent you the paperback, and I hope that works out for you. Amazon says it should arrive by this Friday. Maybe you can even have a whole good weekend. Also, I had never heard of the book you chose, and now I totally want to read it so thanks for the book recommendation! 🙂

  789. I can’t help but to comment one more time (the last one, I promise). I was always very intrigued about you and what you’ve been bringing up to the world, Jenny, because it was very different, very powerful. And I tasted something so wonderful today that I think made me understand something very important about you: You believe in the best of people. You feel and expect the best of people, and you are able to notice the best in each and every one of us, you’re sensitive enough to do that. Now, having said this, take a time to notice the fact that what you’ve been growing around here echoed all the way to another hemisphere and transformed my life here in the very south of Brazil. I was feeling very hopeless about mankind, I was wishing very hard we were able to spread more Love to this world rather hate, and I had my focus on the bad side of humanity. And then this incredible thing happened, someone I’ve never met, that very likely lives in another country, sent me a book that I wanted for a long time as a gift. And then I UNDERSTOOD your power. You simply love people because you know it’s worthwhile! If we tackle the bad side we’ll get the bad side. You’ve been tackling the very best of us (friendship, hope, union, support, LOVE) and so we’ve been practicing here our very best. If you hope for the best, you will get the best. It is a very valuable lesson. I don’t know if you are aware of this, but what you’ve been teaching us (LOVE) is the best lesson one can ever hope to learn in life. You’re a natural. You’re not broken or anything as you say, YOU can’t be. But WE are so deeply broken in this planet that it takes us longer to realize that the best answer is and always will be Love. I speak here from my Heart, and I hope it reach yours, just as your actions have finally reached me here. You’re here for a purpose, clearly, and that it is to teach us, “smaller” beings, to learn the path of Love, so thank you for everything that you have done. All the time you spend trying to inspire us is very precious and makes all the difference… With all my Love…

  798. I really just need something happy or beautiful right now. Everything feels so dark and broken at the moment. I have and love both of your books Jenny, and my husband recently read Furiously Happy and it was like a lightblub for him, he now wants everyone to read it so that maybe they can kinda sorta almost ‘get it’. So here’s my list, as much as I’m ashamed to admit I need help, but right now we’re struggling so much I’ve had to give up buying coffee so I don’t really have spare cash to get a new book.

  801. Shannon (#595), one of your books will be there Friday!

    I love this idea! Books have always been my refuge, and this wonderful blog community has helped me immensely as well. I struggle with anxiety, and some days when it’s overwhelming it’s nice to have a site to visit that shows me I’m not alone.

    Much love to my fellow anxious bookworms!

    If anyone would like to check out my list, here it is:
    https://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/1R371O4FTT5PP/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ip_wl_o_46FSwbF6N7KRG

  802. I don’t need a copy, because I just bought one – but I really needed the one I got.

    My family lost almost all of our stuff in the flood in Columbia, SC back in October, but we recovered pretty quickly with a ton of help from our homeschool and gaming communities – it was wonderful to see.

    But depression and bipolar disorder lie, as you well know, and I’ve had a crazy time of things. I have a tendency when my disorder swings me in the other direction to take on way too much – I have to be supermom. I’ve been finding myself doing a lot of that, lately – I have to make everything great for everyone, even if it means I’m not always included in “everyone,” because I want to be prepared for the “next big disaster.” I’m -waiting- for it to happen, and that just feels awful. Things are wonderful, and I should be happy all the time, but I’m not – I’m just running myself ragged when I need to take a break and just -breathe-.I say “yes,” way too much when I know what I really want to do is avoid crowds, avoid people, avoid all the things that make me ridiculously anxious and just spend some time chilling out – but instead I take on another obligation. It’s been piling up, lately.

    Your first book pulled me out of one hellish depression; it made me feel far less alone. I’d been promising myself your second book since before it came out, but then the flood hit and it had to wait and I’d forgotten. Then you followed me on Twitter and reminded me of just how wonderful you are, and your talent for lifting us all up and making us feel so much less alone in the world. So two days ago, I bought your book, and in those few moments I dare to steal for myself, I read. I read, and I laugh and I cry and I laugh again, because you make everything better.

    When I get home tonight, I’m going to help someone else out. I’m going to get them the book they need to feel good, whatever that may be. Thank you, Jenny.

  804. Also? Can I just say how happy it makes me that SO MANY of the lists were empty when I went looking for one to send? Mine is sent. I hope it makes someone’s day!

  807. Jenny, you and everyone here are AWESOME. Not in a position to help now, but not in need either, and hopefully next time you do an amazing thing I’ll be able to help. I only got through like the first 50 comments, and had to stop reading because the wonderfulness of strangers was making me cry and I really don’t want to be crying for my first appointment with a new neurologist.

    But y’all ROCK

  810. FYI I’m in the US and was able to work Bryony Nelson’s wishlist on Amazon.co.uk just fine. As long as you have a credit card that will do the currency conversion (e.g., I use Amex) it’s fine. And BONUS: Furiously Happy is slightly cheaper than on Amazon.com! (though probably not once Amex adds in a fee for the conversion, but I was momentarily please).

  816. I love the fact that so many links I clicked on were empty, hopefully indicating that their wishes had been fulfilled already. Someone’s getting a book on Friday!

  817. Flatlander in VT (798), we all need help at some point in our lives, and it takes strength and courage to admit that. I have been there and know the power of having a stranger acknowledge that need. Your Terry Pratchett is on the way, because he’s one of my favorites too.

    Jenny, you are amazing! The need to help can be as profound as the need for help, and that you’ve made all these connections between strangers is astounding. Thank you!

  818. I almost didn’t put my post up but I did. And within an hour a Rachel W. had provided a book for me. And I was standing at a bus stop and I won’t lie and say that I didn’t start crying. Thank you to Rachel and thank you to Jenny. Life feels a little bit rough these days but this gift reminded me how of just how generous the world can be. Thank you Rachel W. With gratitude.

  820. 819 is a dup of 808. I am sorry for double posting, I didnt think it posted the first time 😡 sorry

  821. Hi. Check out this list: https://www.amazon.ca/registry/wishlist/9R8LGL1ZA0BY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ip_wl_o_-6FSwbWMRA9JV

    I have been struggling with anxiety all my life but the last three years were stronger than ever… I am getti g back to control it but it is hard.
    Than that book found its way to me and after that this comunity… Thank you every one

    (When I look at your list it says that the books you chose aren’t available for gifting at this time. Something about kindle having issues? Maybe delete those and try another? Sending love! ~ Jenny)

  824. Ataia (#721) your coloring book is on its way! We posted around the same time last night. Due to insomnia, I was able to stay up until Amazon fixed itself. I’ll be thinking about you. Hope you have a great day!

  827. This is amazing — I booksgivinged myself this morning (tried to last night but, you know, thanks for breaking amazon) and now searching through wish lists! Thank you for letting me be a Book Fairy!

  828. 747, THANK YOU THANK YOU! If it does happen to send me two, I’ll give the other copy to my therapist and have her pick a client to pass it onto when she’s done with it. I quote Jenny to her all the time. 🙂

  837. A day late, but I just bought one for someone (midway through the emails, and showed up on the wishlist) and it made me feel good. That’s the lesson isn’t it. On the card I put my favorite line from the book “depression is a liar.” I’ve been working on that one with my 9 year old and hoping it is sinking in for him. (On another note, I just published an ebook that parents may enjoy: Weaving a Family: Genetics, Identity and Adoption. Less nerdy than it sounds. My tagline is “I read the science books so you don’t have to.”)

  839. Sarah – #664, book on the way, you should get it on Friday. I hope it makes you feel a little less alone in the world. xo

  842. LISA BENNETT #778 – someone already purchased your book, but if you just need a friend while you’re far, far away, email me Deanne412@gmail.com. I’ll keep you company!

    KAILYNN #780 — I bought a book for your students, delivery date 2/5.

  843. It might be too late, but I’m having a very sad January, which is now bleeding into February. It’s one of those times when you feel like nothing can go right and it feels lonely. A break up, a lost job opportunity, and a senior dog who is slowly going senile are not the worst things in the world. But I feel like I’ve lost my ability to be happy and I miss it.

    Jenny’s first book got me through a long commute to a bad job and was one of the few things that made me laugh. I’d like that magic back!

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=25EOFMVJZ8U2K&type=wishlist

    (Sending such love. I went to buy you a book and was so happy to see it was already purchased by someone else. Thank you for sharing and thank you to everyone helping. Clicking on these links and seeing how many people are connecting makes me more than slightly sniffly. ~ Jenny)

  846. Erica #843 if you can change your wishlist to include the hardcover instead of paperback I will have it sent to you this week 🙂 I think the paperback is out of stock now!!

  848. 747, THANK YOU THANK YOU! If it does happen to send me two, I’ll give the other copy to my therapist and have her pick a client to pass it onto when she’s done with it. I quote Jenny to her all the time. 🙂

  850. Erica, I wanted to get you a copy but it looks like you added the paperback copy which doesn’t come out until September. I’m sorry about your January/February- I bet your dog is awesome, thank you for loving her.

  853. Actually, Erica #843 I figured out how to change it and send it to you anyway! Your book will be there this Friday! Sending you love and good vibes sweetie. I’ve been in your shoes and luckily right now I am in a good place so I HAVE to share this good energy with you!

    Jenny Lawson, you are my hero!! This is a most wonderful idea!

  854. I hope this works..I’ve been struggling the last weeks with my depression and bipolar sneaking back into control. I’ve tried to fight it off but last week I started on a new medication. I try to tell myself that asking for help wasn’t admitting I was weak. I tried to be strong and tell myself it’ll be ok…but I’m in a hard spot. I just try to take it day by day. Having a book to remind me that there are people out there who care and who understand my feelings…it would bring me an amount of strength I need right now.

    (Add a shipping address? Sending love! You’re not alone. ~ Jenny)

  855. My son and I are both still adjusting to living in a new country where we don’t have any friends. We could really use this.

  856. The next step is buying copies of Furiously Happy and leaving them around where people will need them: the Social Security office, the doctor’s office, the unemployment office. We could pepper the world with furious happiness. Who’s up for that??

  859. Abby B and Cherise L – your books are on their way! To Anonymous who asked for Red Rose Chain – you did not post an address so I can’t gift you that book yet.

  864. I wasn’t sure if it was proper to tell people when we’d bought them a book but other people are so to hell with it, I’m going too. comment #128 Robin! Enjoy your book buddy, stick your name plate in it because you don’t have to return this one! 🙂

  866. I really can’t think of a better way to spend part of the Amazon gift card I received for Christmas than to share this book with someone (ok, another someone – gave my niece a copy for christmas already!). book away!

  867. unikerm – Happy booksgiving, hope you enjoy the books and get settled in the new country soon.

  868. To Lita Hegemier – Thank you. Your generosity and kindness overwhelmed me. I tried to go through the comments to see if I saw you there but wow, what a response this post got! Kinda makes you think there IS hope after all. I don’t understand why you chose my post, but thank you. From way down from toes to the top of my head, thank you. I really hope you see this. I did not see a way to send you a thank you from Amazon so, again, thank you.

  869. It is awesome to see all those now-empty lists. 🙂 I eventually found wishes for kids books I used to read and a fellow strangeling in my state. Comments 180 (singlemomsickkid) and 209 (Terri Cole), books are coming to you! Happy Booksgiving, everyone!

  870. keep adding!! I will buy one for someone else too! terrible month/year so far but this feels good! also sharing this! Jenny, you totally make the world better!

  875. I want to give a book but can’t till Friday(payday). Is that okay? Will this post still be up? angrymamamicrobiologist your list is super!

  876. I am in love with this book! It made me feel not so “crazy” and weird. I just ordered one to send to my little sister, who just finally got the courage to tell her doctor she needs some help. Our mom is very against us taking medicine for anything, so I told my sister to make her read the book after she’s done. Hopefully, it will help her to understand us better. THANK YOU for writing this book, and for giving out lots of laughs!

  881. Toddler clicked post before I could add –

    I love the idea of Booksgiving! And everyone who is buying books for people, thank you all!!

  882. This made me feel very special. Thank you to my book givers – I will think of you every time I open my books.

  893. rachel paige (861), you should have your copy of Furiously Happy by Friday! Sending good vibes from a new Internet friend. 🙂

  895. I am so grateful to whoever brought me a book <3 <3

    Jenny, if you’re still giving out any of your books, a dear friend just had to pull her child from kindergarten because they believe he’s autistic and he can’t cope. She’s dealing with so much right now, and I believe your book might help her through it — http://www.amazon.com/registry/giftlist/2TASWUZKI7J2T

  896. Bernice j, for some reason I can’t ship to your address. Only mine. Love your name!

  897. What a fantastic way to give, Jenny! Books are one of my favorite things to gift & I am very excited to pick someone to give one to. What a great way to make another’s day a little bit better! 🙂 I have just very recently discovered your blog–I wish I’d seen it much sooner!! You make me smile (& laugh) every day! Thank you!

  898. Thank you to who ever took the time to create post #768….i was able to click through those links easily and send to some people who might have gotten overlooked buy the huge response to happy booksgiving day.

  899. Bernice (number 884) I just tried to send you a book but your address isn’t in the wish list. Could you add it?

  902. I would gift a book but through amazon.ca only… if anyone wants one from there leave a link here for me, thanks! It was an amazing book that really makes you feel less “not normal”.

  903. Tiffany–#860 Your book is ordered and will hopefully be on it’s way shortly! Wishing you much happiness.

  904. #847, I hope your friend is able to find her way out of the darkness soon. Books are sent.

  905. As usual late to the game, lol but alas motherhood. I’ve never commented here before but been a lurker and follower for years. Jenny has helped me think of things more positively and that is a great thing. I’ve not had the chance to read her newest book but would love to but since breastfeeding, kindle is really my only option. However for my 5 year son, I love letting him just touch and enjoy books. He’s currently sitting on couch flipping through a library book, “reading”. It’s adorable and gives me hope he will be a bookworm like me. I really want him to have the “Families, Families, Families” book because both his godparents are gay and in interracial marriages. Plus my son is half Mexican so I want him to learn how families can be anyone and just love everyone despite differences. It looks like an amazing book!

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/8QV264E2OXYP/ref=cm_wl_huc_view

  907. I’m late to this party but just made my list, and dammit I going to be happy today even if I cry while doing it.

  915. Finally found an unpurchased list! Yay! Deb s you will have your wish in 2 days! (Yay for Prime!, lol)

  916. This was an amazing book and it helped me realize about what I am currently going through. I told my husband and sister to read it also so they can understand what I am feeling. Thank you Jenny!!!

  921. The Book I REALLY Need Right Now:
    Furiously Happy
    https://amzn.com/w/2X1IDZZVVJ857

    May of 2015 we lost our sweet girl Mocha (lab/doberman) after a two year battle w/degenerative myelopathy. We’re still struggling w/her loss everyday, but we finally felt emotionally healed enough to bring home a puppy companion for her depressed brother that really misses her. This past Wed we brought home a 10wk old puppy & they both bonded closely, as did we. Sadly though, even though our puppy had a parvo vaccine he was admitted to emergency/critical care on Mon & is still there trying to beat parvo. Despite what he is going through, he still manages to wag his tail occasionally & has maintained his sweet personality.

    Financially, we lost it all doing every & anything we could for Mocha & now what we managed to save since May will be wiped out once more trying to save Gryffin @ a cost of about $1,435/36 hrs. with an estimated stay of at least 5-7 days. Literally every last penny that we have, is going to be spent on giving Gryffin a fighting chance & we just hope & pray that our money doesn’t run out before he is ok. We just want to bring our little guy home to us, because we all miss him more than words can express.

    My wife & I could really use a much needed distraction from all of the sadness & constant worry. I’ll read to her at night before we go to sleep & because of the kindness & compassion of a stranger, we’ll have a temporary escape.

    Thank you kindly to anyone that even considers gifting a book to us. And if people could send prayers, positive thoughts, loving healing energy, etc. to our little guy Gryffin, it would mean the world to us. (Thank you Jenny for even making this paying it forward gesture possible. You truly are the internet’s most bad-assed Mother Theresa/Princess Diana super hero!)

  923. Erin D, #905, Your post was the last one here when I logged on, late to the party, too! But hey, nothing like making an entrance. You should have your Kindle redemption email shortly and the book for your son by Friday! Julie M.

  926. Brooke CG (909), your ukulele book will arrive soon!
    Ukuleles are good medicine. <3

  927. I spent my youth in the Circus, yes literally, spinning by my neck and whatnot. The Wenatchee Youth Circus. Our founder who started the circus 64 years ago passed away Sunday and I am completely lost and haven’t slept since I got the news. My heart is broken and could really use a little love and laughter. Thanks friends across the world.

    http://smile.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/1RGD1YAELQ8VT

  928. I’m a single mom, so money is always tight. I have been having a rough time lately, possibly a little depressed…it feels like all I do is work, and it still isn’t enough. To the person that may help me, I truly thank you from the bottom of my heart. I hope that one day I will be in a position to pay the kindness forward.

    https://amzn.com/w/2BLOFHXM90KRW

  930. It seems like Christmas! Jenny I want you to know that I put your book first but it’s at the end of wish list! Thanks for all you do for us, if I’m sad I can always reread Knock Knock MotherFucker and that will have me laughing out loud!

  931. http://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/1T4ZNSKP87JAF

    I am currently lying in bed due to severe depression and anxiety. Most days I have a hard time getting up just to take my kids to school or let the dog out. I’m working with a psychiatrist and meds to get me better but I know this book would help as the blog has in the past.
    Thank you Jenny for being so open, amazing, kind, and hilarious.

  934. Oh, that post. Crying at the bus stop post. Made my day. Such good in the world and you’re helping make it happen, J:). Applauding from afar . . .

  936. Erin #931 . . . I just tried to purchase the book for you but there doesn’t seem to be a shipping address. Hang on, sister … I’m wishing you light at the end of your tunnel!!

  946. I hope I’m not too late. I was reading this last night when my insomnia kept me from sleeping. I created a special wish list on amazon for this, and I don’t feel like I deserve anything but if anyone decides to buy me something off the list I promise to do my best to pay it forward. I tried to buy something inexpensive off of another persons list last night but amazon was broken. I shared this blog post everywhere I could think of because I think this is an excellent idea.
    Your book helped me tremendously. I have bipolar I with psychotic features, generalized anxiety disorder, and schizoid personality disorder. Having these problems makes it difficult for me to relate to other people but after reading your book and finding your blog Jenny, I think I found my tribe.
    Lately my hands have been swelling up at night to the point where I have to take my wedding ring off. I feel so bad not wearing it, but whatever is going on with me makes it impossible. I looked up my symptoms online last night and I called the VA’s telenurse and although she wouldn’t diagnose me on the phone she told me to make an appointment today and see a doctor if possible. Everything points to congestive heart failure. At the very least I might have diabetes. Not knowing is driving me crazy.
    So crazy I had my first panic attack last night. My heart was racing, I couldn’t stop pacing. I woke my husband up and begged him to either give me more Klonopins or take me to the emergency room. He keeps the pills safe for me so I won’t take too many and run out before my prescription can be refilled. My doctor refuses to prescribe me the amount I actually need because of my past struggles with addiction.
    Thank God for my husband. He knew what to do to calm and soothe me. I wish I could share Furiously Happy with him but he doesn’t read because he has dyslexia and it is difficult for him. However he will listen to audio books with me and that is why I put the audio version of Furiously Happy on my wish list.
    Today I am just going to take a mental health day. I am going to see if there is something on someone’s list that is five dollars or less so I can feel like I have participated. I am really tight with money right now because my husband is attending college full time and we rely on financial aid and my disability for income. Something went wrong with the financial aid this month and we are not sure if we are going to have enough money to pay the mortgage. I really hate borrowing money from people but I might have to suck it up and ask my mother in law for help this time around. I am not looking forward to it.
    If anyone has it in them to buy the audio book for me I greatly appreciate it and I promise to pay it forward when I get out of the red.
    Here is a link to my list:
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/T6ZWQ68BUSSM/ref=cm_sw_em_r_wsg_BQISwb0AK9MKF_wb

    Thank you and bless you Jenny and all the kind and generous members of your tribe.

    (Audiobook on the way to you now. ~ Jenny)

  947. Jennifer #510 THANK YOU! I’m so grateful and touched. You are wonderful! I wish the comments would let me reply directly to your comment to thank you, but I hope you see this.
    Also I would have thanked you sooner but for some reason Amazon isn’t telling ME who/what was purchased off the list.
    I will DEFINITELY pass on my extra copies. Ideally to a family who won’t be able to get them themselves. 🙂 😀

  952. What an awesome idea – thank you for letting us all participate! I missed this post yesterday, but yesterday was my Dad’s birthday. My Dad never finished school, but loved reading. He would read anything, literally. You know how people have a random box of books at a garage sale with a 25 cents each sticker on the box? Dad would buy the whole box and just pick up a book and start reading. And I’m pretty much the same way. So in honor of my dear departed Dad, I’m so thankful to be able to send a book to someone who also loves books. Happy Booksgiving everyone!

  956. To Jordan (#812): Enjoy your book! 🙂 It should arrive Friday, 02/05. Happy reading!

  957. We’ve had a very rough year. My father-in-law was diagnosed with ALS, and passed away a month ago. Between that and a very active little 2 yr old (and all the other normal stuff), I regained 20lbs that I had lost.

    This book is more expensive than I would normally ask anyone to pay for anything for me, but I’ve heard amazing things about the step by step process it uses to help get a person building muscle to get in shape. If anyone actually buys it for me, I will be amazed and beyond thankful!

    And thank you to anyone who can’t, but goes on to buy someone else’s book wish!

  959. Teresa (950) … thank you a million times over!! I am so touched by your gesture and by this whole virtual book-giving love fest that Jenny has given birth to. Humans are awesome!! 🙂

  960. I missed Booksgiving yesterday, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed, especially after I had a client cancel on me today. I run my own business helping people improve their health, and while I love it and have had great successes with my clients, it barely pays the bills, let alone anything “frivolous” such as books. (I really don’t think books are frivolous, but when you have to make a choice between food and books, well, I go with eating.) Jenny, I loved your first book, and trust me, I can relate! I can’t wait to read Furiously Happy! http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/MWJWQLXHL5NH/ref=cm_wl_list_o_1?

  961. Feenicks (comment#929) – your book is on the way! Jenny is a gift that keeps on giving.

  964. Thank you, Jenny. I’ve been feeling pretty down for the last few weeks. My mother chose to disown me because I’d asked her for an apology for something she’d said. My sisters don’t talk to me much now that our mother & I aren’t talking. Just feeling very lonely & isolated.

    This is my first time making a wish list, so I’m hoping this link works. Thank you to anyone who chooses to send me a book. Know that I’m sending you all a lot of love & my deepest gratitude back.

  966. Minischism in Canada, I hope you enjoy your book. My 17 year old daughter loved it. I hope everyone who reached out gets a response. Is there any way we can find out if there are any people who didn’t get anything at the end of Booksgiving? I worry.

  967. Jenny, I dragged a friend to your book signing in Dallas. She was grieving the loss of her dog and a generally sucky year, but I hoped that you would help her find a way out for a little while. This is the very same friend that introduced me to your blog and 1st book, so I had to try! Our faces hurt from laughing so much, and the day was a much needed break from our realities. I wear my silver ribbon with pride. Bless you for being willing to share so others know they are not alone.

  969. This community is absolutely amazing. I was having a really bad day yesterday and then I saw booksgiving. Thank you so much to whoever purchased books for me. I don’t usually feel like I matter but I sure do now. <3

  971. MomofNate — if you can, please add your address. It doesn’t show up when I try to order.

    Kathy

  974. Just tried to order a book for someone and the shipping address isn’t there! Please make sure you have a shipping address! Just tried to order for someone & no address. Thanks all!

  975. Firestar, Your post immediately spoke to me. I hope your book helps you find peace. xo

  976. I’ve been arguing with myself since you posted this blog. I really could use a book to pick me up right now, but there are so many who probably need it more. There have been a lot of obstacles in the way of my dream and it has pretty much drained a formerly healthy bank account. Add mental and physical illnesses on top of that, and well…I could use a book. So I decided to post for one, hoping that most of the people who really needed one more than me will have their wishes fufilled!

    Anyway, I put some coloring books for stress-relief on mine…one sweary (for those times when frustration at those obstacles demands it) and one sweet (when I just need a little mood-lift. Thanks…either one would be appreciated!

  977. So, I followed this whole thing yesterday, bought a couple of books, felt furiously happy about life in general because of how awesome it is.

    Then last night, I went home and discovered my husband is text-cheating on me.

    But damn it all if I didn’t come back here today and still feel pretty good about humanity when I saw that the number of comments had more than doubled.

    This is a good tribe to be in.

  980. This is a really wonderful idea… Giving it a shot, though not expecting anything 🙂 I’ve been really focused on positivity and affirmations this year, after a really rough three years. Focusing on personal happiness and gaining back the self confidence I lost so many moons ago.
    https://amzn.com/w/1YXZF4SNOAODD

  981. Betty Widerski (#810), thank you SO SO much for purchasing a book for me. I am honestly so grateful and can’t believe someone would do something so kind. Thank you very much again!!

  985. Bride Of Sparky (962) I literally sat here and cried when I saw your post. Thank you. Not only for the books, but for proving the voices in my head wrong – at least for now. I do matter, and things will only get better if I can just hang on. I’m trying. hugs

  988. You’re awesome. I’m in a good place in life right now, but have bought your book for my daughter, who has gone through some traumatic and trying times this past year. Thank you for all that you do!

  991. Post (921) here.
    Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to the kind hearted soul that gifted us Jenny’s book. It was nice to cry tears of joy for once, as it’s been awhile. As soon as we can, we will be paying it forward in honor of you & your touching gesture today. My spirit already feels elevated & the little kid in me eagerly awaits the arrival of our book. Thank you again.

  993. MR – your book is on the way. Should get it around the 9th. Hope it helps your shyness.

  996. Becki (986)- I haven’t been having the greatest year either. I bought both of us Jenny’s book- hopefully we can both turn things around 🙂

    If anyone is looking for another great book I loved, “Your Voice in my Head” I read it when I’m down and it gives me so much hope.

  1003. I’m a little late to the party. I only saw this yesterday after amazon crashed. My friend who’s pretty much my sister is having a horrible time dealing with mental illness. I really want her to read Furiously Happy but I don’t have money right now. If someone could help me help her, I would be so grateful. When I have some extra money I’ll get my own copy <3

    http://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/1BV5MOEC3VINU/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_ws_ARJSwb08N5NV9

  1004. I’ve read both of Jenny’s books from the library (love, love love!). I’ve been needing to make a change in my life. I don’t feel well, have recently gained 40lbs and need to get back to eating better for my physical and mental health! My list has a couple Paleo cookbooks (and a microbiology book my HS senior daughter is going to need for school, and a sketch book my younger daughter wanted but didn’t get for Christmas, lol).

    https://amzn.com/w/1A8AJU4LP99Y9

  1005. Normally I’m the one doing the donating, but the last few months have been rough. There’s no cure for my husband’s migraines, despite many years of treatments from multiple doctors. We’re not getting a paycheck for him, and he’s probably going to lose his job soon. We’re on a “spend nothing” budget now to cover the bills, but it’s getting lonely sitting at home virtually all alone by myself while he’s constantly drugged up or asleep because of a headache. Something new to read would help keep me busy and take my mind off constantly stressing out. https://amzn.com/w/3NS0F3S94OHS8

  1006. This is Megan again from comment 854. I updated my list with shipping information but can’t seem to figure out how to update my comment. It’s not even noon and it’s been a long day 🙁 Thank you for doing this Jenny. You’re so inspiring to me every day. The community of strong readers that surround this blog…it’s so touching to be a part of.
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=QYC36M65CPM7&type=wishlist

  1007. So here’s the deal, I don’t need any books really. But I love when my kids get books, so here’s their list. I updated it a little today to give a better mix. If you feel so inclined to send them a book, please leave a gift note so I can tape it inside. It makes it that much more special.

    http://amzn.com/w/24FO8KIQIIHVV

    And now, I must go gift books to strangelings!

    What a fun idea Jenny, you’re pretty awesome.

    (Book coming your way! ~ Jenny)

  1010. I keep seeing comments from people saying things like “I have a hard time asking…” or “I don’t feel like I deserve this” and “Other people have it worse than I do….” and I want to just hug everyone and tell you that I am VERY proud of you for reaching out to ask, especially knowing how hard it is (I struggle with this too), you DO deserve some kindness, and just because someone else’s situation is different doesn’t mean that yours isn’t hard.

    I am so grateful that I was able to participate in this, as both a giver and a recipient. Thank you, Jenny, and thank you to everyone here, especially those who gifted a book to my daughter.

  1012. I would like read ur book “let’s pretend this never happened”. . .but I don’t have an amazon account, I read ” furiously happy” cus I’m a barns & nodle hobo (when my lil girls @school I go there to read) can’t lol in the library, ppl get mad

  1013. I’m just posting a list, I’m not sure if we are too late to participate. My little boy (almost 4) and I are voracious readers. We can always use more books! I’m re-reading a series for the 4th time, simply because I can’t afford anything new. I am a single mom who is just trying to make a good life for her son. Thank you for considering us.

    Ginger

    (Can you add a shipping address? Thanks! ~ Jenny)

  1017. I have tried to buy 10-15 books. Either they are already purchased ( hurrah!) or the only shipping address is mine. I would love to buy a book ( or 5). If someone wants to send me a link directly in my fb box- I will buy it. Otherwise I will keep trying. I wanted to buy for the man who requested Serendipity by joss wheeden. No address in the list. 🙁

  1018. This is for myself as I struggle on a daily basis with severe depression, and panic attacks. This would make my year. It’s good to know I’m not only one who finds this hard, and it’s nice to know there are books out there to help.

    http://www.amazon.ca/registry/wishlist/TNZ9H8FVFG3O

    (The one you selected is on pre-order and doesn’t come out until late this year. Maybe choose hardcover or e-version instead? ~ Jenny)

  1022. I’m really glad you did this! I always wanted to help before but wasn’t in a position to do so!

  1025. Anonymous #1013 – I’d love to help out you and your son, but I believe you need to add a shipping address. Thanks!

  1029. MR #1000 – I hope it works now. I think I added it to the wrong list initially. A thousand thanks!

  1030. Kerri (The Maven) #1007 – A book is on its way to your kids! I hope your family loves it as much as mine. 🙂

    And Bloggess… you have created magic here today.

  1032. As always this community has made me smile. I was a little late to the party and couldn’t find a list that hadn’t been fulfilled and as sad as that made me it also made me furiously happy. Count me in next time. Booksgiving is truly the awesomest of holidays.

  1033. I’m a single mom with major health issues. In a rut just waiting for the next step and need something to keep me going. I’m trying to read more because following a friend who is an avid reader just makes me want to read. She posted this and I thought I’d give this a go. I don’t expect much.
    Book I need right now
    Link: http://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/791JXOFB6473

  1034. Overwhelmed and unsure – I am willing to ask for help. It would be very nice to read this book. Thank you Jenny… you are amazing.

  1037. Julie Olson – someone beat me to it! If there is anything else your daughter would like, please add to the list!

  1039. Anonymous #1012 – I don’t think you have to have a credit card on file or anything to create an Amazon wish list. You can create an account to put stuff in your cart or in a wish list without ever adding payment info. Give it a try!
    amazon.com… create list… create account (email or phone)… list settings (right side), make default, public, and VIEW DETAILS (so you can add shipping address)… save changes, add a book to the list, then copy the link! Get your book so you can LOL at home! 🙂

  1041. Is this right? Is this still ongoing? Here’s my link:
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2F9BLI7SKR88L/ref=cm_wl_list_o_0?

    I’ve been wanting to read Furiously Happy since it was first released… I bought your first book when it came out, and then bought another copy for my best friend, who really needed it right then. But this time round, it’s had to go on my “when I have some spare money” mental list, since I really don’t have any (spare money, that is). Should someone be kind enough to send me a copy of Furiously Happy, I’ll be sure to lend it to my best friend after I’ve read it, since she loved “Lets pretend this never happened” so very much… as did I, of course.

  1043. Dear Suzy @1033 – One of your picks plus a favorite, funny & uplifting book that I love are on their way to you. Enjoy them in good health! With love, A Mom in CA

  1044. this whole idea is deeply beautiful!
    Books are my escape and also catalysts in personal growth – both of which I have needed a lot of recently. Life is just plain hard sometimes. I am there right now and struggling.
    I create a list for myself and now I look forward to finding someone to send a book to.
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2B86BXSSSQKN6
    Thanks Jenny for kicking out this idea to all of us!

  1048. I neither need a book right now, I mean I always want a book, nor can I afford to give a book right now. I just want to say thank you to all of the people who are participating on the give side for being generous and good people. I also want to tell the people on the receive side that no matter how hard things get, support is the best thing humans can give, no matter how we give it. So look at the book you receive as a bit of love from one human who wrote it and one human who gave it and there you have at least 2 humans who love you 🙂

  1049. To whoever filled my daughter’s wish and those that tried and already found it filled…. Thank you!!!!! It’s the time of year when depression gets the best of a lot of us and she is no exception. She spent the weekend in the hospital with a severe intestinal infection (today is her first day back at school), and she has a birthday coming up. She will be so thrilled to get this book and know that it was a strangeling just trying to make her day. Love to all of Jenny’s tribe.

  1052. I’ve tried to buy for a couple of people, but you’all need to put in your shipping address 🙁

  1054. Added the address! Sorry. Couldn’t fix it till I got to an actual computer. Mobile devices don’t give the option.

    MomOfNate | February 3, 2016 at 5:56 am

    I own & love both your books, and I love this idea. My wish list is currently made up of books that I have come across in blogs and articles that I have slowly been purchasing for my 5 year old who came out to us last year as gender creative. They are all books about being comfortable with who you are and not hiding your differences. I’d be grateful for any of them. I think it is set up with my address… mobile devices don’t seem to give the option to check.

    http://www.amazon.ca/registry/wishlist/1JOFXWWBLMOH

  1055. LOVE how popular #booksgiving is – I had to click on dozens of wishlists before I found one that still had books in it! Alex, something is heading your way.

    Much love to all of you, especially Jenny.

  1062. Julie D, enjoy Chaffy!

    Find Chaffy will be shipped to Julie D by BookdonorsUK.
    Estimated delivery: Mar. 2, 2016 – Mar. 15, 2016

  1063. I have been searching for self-help books for a while and mostly ones that are focused on anxiety. I have struggled with it for years but I no longer want to be on medication. It makes me feel groggy, less kind and less aware. That’s not the person or life I want to live. I also don’t want to be the anxious freak I sometimes feel like I am! I came across your book accidentally on Amazon when I was searching for new books to read. I then read reviews where someone mentioned your blog and now I’m here, writing to you. Weird day. Anyway, the fact that you’re doing this brings tears of joy to my eyes. Not because there’s a possibility I might receive this but because it allowed me to reach out to others who may need a gift as well. To me, giving is much better than receiving and I hope we can all pay it forward if we are financially able! Thanks for being you. Although I just discovered you!
    Have a great day!

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=46C1GYTGOLWM&type=wishlist

  1068. thank you thank you <3 Stacey #771. I’m overwhelmed by such generosity from strangers..This really made my day. Just reading all the comments is so uplifting

  1069. This is the second time I’ve witnessed you being incredibly charitable and offering others the opportunity to give as well. I truly admire your selflessness and wish I had it in me to be the same.
    I’m having to rely heavily on coworkers lately, because I’ve taken on a supervisory position but have no associates currently to work in the department. It’s so humbling to have to ask for help and then to accept it. Multiple times I’ve nearly destroyed my health just so I could say I did something myself. I’d say that having to rely on someone else has been one of the most emotional challenges I’ve had. And yet, even with all the help I’m receiving, I still don’t take the time to help others like I should.
    This and the Christmas event are emotionally educational to me. I have not, nor can I ever ask for something I haven’t earned. So, I’m seeing the strength it takes to ask for something you can’t get yourself, and I admire those here who are brave and strong enough to do so.
    So, thank you. Thank you for being the kind of person I wish I could be, and giving others the opportunity to be the kind of people we need to be.

  1070. The top book on my list is “Roller Girl”. My 9 year old daughter has been begging for it, she wants to own it and read it over and over (we had checked it out from the library). She wants to take it to school and tell all the other kids about it. It is the first time she’s been enthusiastic over a book and it would be a great gift if she could have one.

    http://amzn.com/w/2MZXPJBDO1ELX

  1071. Thank you so much for your gift, I feel better already, and I haven’t opened it yet! I can’t tell you how such a beautiful gesture has made my day! 🙂

  1080. I just wish I could hug people through the screen. Thanks, Jennifer, for making these tears happy ones. (((Jennifer))). Really needed this today and will pay it forward when able!

  1081. Deir, I would love to send you the coloring book but there is no address. Please update your wish list and it will be on it’s way <3
    Love, Sheri

  1082. I just want to thank the person(s) who purchased books for my Mom (comment #106). It took me a bit to figure out that my list was empty because folks had purchased the books- and so I had added more because I thought i did something wrong!

    Our gang is the best! Warming hearts and lives all over the place! Thanks so much!!

  1084. The Book I Really Need Right Now
    https://amzn.com/w/3LWYTR4O0Y6G7

    This is for my hardworking & loving wifey. She’s endured an incredibly rough two past years & books have always been her way of relaxing. It would be a most wonderful surprise for her to experience this type of kindness & love from a stranger, as in some ways she seems to be losing some of her hope & faith that life can be wondrous & good. I look forward to telling her all about the story behind BooksGiving & how the world is still filled with points of light.

    Thank you for this opportunity.

  1087. i have been wanting Furiously Happy since it came out, but simply can’t afford it. i struggle with depression and anxiety, and i need a great book by a great author that i can relate to. so much love and light to all the strangelings helping each other! <3 you, Jenny, you’re an inspiration!
    https://amzn.com/w/11M9UFVTSJA0T

  1088. Just got home from a really shitty therapist appointment. Crying, snot the whole 9 yards. I’m almost 4 years free of self-harm but stressed out from grad school and work and really just need some downtime to reset myself and breathe. I’ve been struggling lately with anxiety and reading helps a lot to take me out of my head. I put 4 books by Francesca Lia Block on here (all have used options for less than $2) her stories always have helped me in the past. Sending the lovlies on here many hugs for helping. Surprises from kind souls are the best…
    https://amzn.com/w/YEWWALJ9NOT8

  1090. Sarebare – your book should be on its way, soon. I hope it helps. Just remember – you’re not alone. Especially not here. <3

  1091. This is SO beautiful!! I love you Jenny and every generous, kind soul here. <3

  1092. I just wanted to say that I really needed this today. I’ve been going through a very rough spell with my bipolar and anxiety disorder to the point where I’ve been feeling pretty hopeless. “Furiously Happy” made me feel less alone and less crazy, and being able to gift it to others who need it is turning this bad week around in a big way.

  1093. Cheril- 1088. 4 years free of self harm is a huge accomplishment! Take time for yourself. 3 of should be coming to you on monday! 🙂

  1094. Ps, I’m not really a hobo, more like an old mall rat but the bookstore in the mall closed and the “new mall” (I hate outlet malls thinking they are real malls, the nerv)… Ur book is the embodiment of my spirit animal. I have arthritis, lupus & I’ve gotten to a point in my life where I couldn’t control my mood swings, roming thoughts, witch caused paranoid fits,& deep depression. Reading ur book helped give me the extra lil push I needed to get help. My fiance(3yrs going on 4 ever woot)is very supportive and is happy that I’m happy. Even if it means I got to name the family pet taco…he’s a Chihuahua.

  1095. Dana, drama therapist – watch your mailbox!

    Jenny, this is so awesome! Thanks for giving us to each other. Now I need to find myself a rogue-signed copy of Furiously Happy. Still haven’t found one!

  1097. I don’t know if you are taking more book requests so I’ll add mine here on a hope and a dream. After an incredibly hard and trying year of loss I just now lost my beloved furry companion suddenly on Saturday. She’s the one who has seen me through everything and has kept me mostly sane. Without my beloved Missy to help me through I am not sure how I’ll go on. Things seem so dark right now. There’s one book I have kept in my Wish List for years because the cover is my beautiful Missy’s face. I never could afford it but I kept it there to make me smile. I know it is an expensive book but I figured this may be my only chance at maybe getting it as a remembrance to my girl. Thank you for the opportunity.

  1101. Thank you thank you thank you, to whom ever bought me books from my list. There are no words to describe just how much this means to me. I am sitting here at work crying happy tears. My coworkers probably think I am nuts, but I don’t care😄 . I am speechless. A thousand hugs and thank-yous.

  1102. Hi. Check out this list: https://www.amazon.ca/registry/wishlist/9R8LGL1ZA0BY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ip_wl_o_ttLSwb14CQQSN

    I tried 3 times and i dont know if that works this time…

And it makes me sad. I started to read again after 4 years and this is such a releif…
    But i am on a short budget…
    Thank you for helping me and as soon as i can i will help someone too

    Thank you for this beautiful comunity, i am sooo glad i found you guys!!

    Saracmartel@hotmail.com
    Let me know if i fucked it up again

  1104. Bonnie N I have been trying to figure this out since yesterday afternoon. I just want to read this book so bad! I hope this works ☺https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1250077001/ref=aw_wl_ov_dp_1_1?colid=1HQTJD37Q88ZA&coliid=I15N4LATXUKIQ9

  1105. so incredibly grateful right now. the kindness of strangers is amazing and is going to make me cry the happiest of tears <3

  1106. MUCH LOVE to the person(s) who purchased books from my lists. Sending you a million hugs from my bed oxoxox. I was glad to be able to financially help out folks during the Christmas wishlists with gifts and please know that I am very grateful that someone took time from their day (and $) to help me out. Books save and I will remember your kindness every time I reach for my bookshelf. xoxoxoox thank you -Cheril
    ps. March 16 is 4 years free of self harm. I always get really dressed up on the day and invite others to as well, as a way of celebrating life’s accomplishments! It started when I organized it at the treatment center I was at and I try to continue it as a recovery day for all my friends out there fighting.

  1107. Ginger, I can’t afford much but I sent you one of your books. Hope you enjoy it, and best of luck to you and your little one.

  1108. Anonymous #1084 — the book is on its way to your wife — should be there by Friday — from one Wisconsin person to another. 🙂

  1109. I feel simply amazing right now because Jenny Lawson herself fulfilled a wish for me of all people. I am going to bookmark this page and revisit it whenever I feel down. You are all wonderful people and I hope you all get what your heart desires.
    As an update I feel much calmer, I talked to my psychiatrist and he recommended some medication changes and assured me that I do not have congestive heart failure. He directed me to make a doctors appointment, which I did just now because he thinks I have a UTI. Well that is something I can deal with, completely curable I think.
    My loving husband has been texting me while he’s away at school asking me to please take a nap or at the very least lay on the couch and watch television (that’s his cure for everything). I think listening to Furiously Happy will help him understand where I am coming from better then he already does. Thank you Jenny, thank you..from the bottom of my heart and soul. You have made my month if not my year.

  1113. We’ve had a very rough year. My father-in-law was diagnosed with ALS, and passed away a month ago. Between that and a very active little 2 yr old (and all the other normal stuff), I regained 20lbs that I had lost.

    This book is more expensive than I would normally ask anyone to pay for anything for me, but I’ve heard amazing things about the step by step process it uses to help get a person building muscle to get in shape. If anyone actually buys it for me, I will be amazed and beyond thankful!

    And thank you to anyone who can’t, but goes on to buy someone else’s book wish!

  1114. Karen #1108. Thank you so much for your Wisconsin generosity! My wife will absolutely grin from ear to ear with this book in her hand. <3 Many blessings to you & yours.

  1115. This is Amanda from comment #1097. I feel I can’t ask someone to get me a book that costs so much. It’s too much. So I amended my list to add some funny cat books that are a lot cheaper but are sure to make me smile. Thanks again for the opportunity. This whole process has made me feel warm and fuzzy, especially after purchasing my own book for someone in want on this list. Jenny, you are truly wonderful!

  1116. Let me try again… evidently the universe said ‘no’ last night…

    https://amzn.com/w/3DBVXG7FKZZEW

    I try to be open and compassionate, but it’s hard and scary to be vulnerable like that. I love that Jenny has found an awesome way to embrace the scary and still be loving and kind.

  1117. Thank you ninmah… thank you so very much. I shall pay it forward when that time comes <3

  1118. Shannon (595) – There is a bit of sunshine headed your way. I hope it makes you smile. 🙂

  1120. i hope i am not too late on this! my books that i have been wanting to read but cannot currently afford due to bills are all kindle books (i read them on my ipad in the kindle app. i hope kindle books are ok for this list! my book wishlist is here: https://amzn.com/w/320WQZ9BYR6WH

  1121. I am so beyond overwhelmed. To whomsoever purchased books for me, I am so very grateful and feel so full. I’m crying at work. It’s helped create a unique personal bubble for me in the break room haha this is such a wonderful community. Hugs and love to you all.

  1122. I love that it took me a solid 15 minutes to find a link with a book still on it!!! Happy Booksgiving day 2!

  1124. I know I’m probably too late to the party, but I made a wish list. I’ve checked out the ebook of furiously happy three times from my local library, and thanks to my monster of a toddler I still haven’t finished it.

    https://amzn.com/w/1JGB3LQU6OJGQ

    It’s been a pretty rough couple of years, and books like these are all that get me through some days.

  1125. I very needed a bit of hope yesterday when I first put up my wishlist (post #421). Today I decided that what I was hoping someone would do for me, I could do for someone else….and now I hope that my gift to them means as much to them as it would have to me. Thank you for doing this… it allowed me to put into practice some lessons I have been trying to live by.

  1126. Bookshop one is amazing!!

    We’ve had a very rough year. My father-in-law was diagnosed with ALS, and passed away a month ago. Between that and a very active little 2 yr old (and all the other normal stuff), I regained 20lbs that I had lost.

    This book is more expensive than I would normally ask anyone to pay for anything for me, but I’ve heard amazing things about the step by step process it uses to help get a person building muscle to get in shape. If anyone actually buys it for me, I will be amazed and beyond thankful!

    And thank you to anyone who can’t, but goes on to buy someone else’s book wish!

    http://smile.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/34NW7MSIYP5LT/ref=topnav_lists_2

  1129. Jenny- thanks for the great idea to pay it forward! Books on the way for several people 🙂

  1130. My gosh, thank you, Jenny! This entire thread is making me tear up. So many wonderful people. I will be paying this forward in time.

  1132. Just bought an e-book for someone. Thank you, Jenny, for creating this opportunity to share. It touched my heart.

  1133. Both of Jenny’s books are so amazing. I have read the first as well as listened to it on audio with my sister. Which brought us to listening to Furiously Happy. (I also own both books) As a fellow suffer of panic disorders and depression most of my life, I think these books should be a standard for workers in the mental health field to hand out to people who suffer and loved ones who deal with the sufferer. It can only help. Seriously. I wish these books had been available back when my troubles started.

    When the stigma of mental illness hit the worse for me, and I couldn’t get people to understand my pain, I would have loved to have handed them these books.(With a gentle note inside “learn, so you can truly help). I am so grateful to Jenny for putting it all so wonderfully on to the page for all to see. So anyone else suffering(although I wish there wasn’t such a thing, truly.), to help themselves, and to offer guidance to the people sharing their lives.

    My husband had a breakdown several years ago. He has been diagnosed with severe anxiety and depression due to PTSD. I remember several months ago, in an attempt to get through to him, telling him “that his brain was lying to him”. Then I read Jenny’s books and her way of putting it, as all of us in this community knows, “Depression Lies”. This is such a better way of putting it. I love it, this statement, now a Mantra it seems. Something I only just really figured out for myself a few years back. That knowledge changed things for me. Turned my life a little more in my favor. I am glad Jenny wrote a book and is telling the world. They really need to know and so do we, the ones being lied to. I can’t praise these books enough, or the wonderful woman that wrote them and shared them with the world, our world, the Broken..the ones working every moment of every day to be Furiously Happy because that’s what we all deserve.

    Happy Booksharing Jenny. This is amazing! The world should know what you have done here. And how grateful we all are to be a part of it. Thanks!

    I wasn’t going to add a book that I need but after seeing everyone else going for it I decided to give it a try. http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1DRV6Q2Q8AMOG/ref=topnav_lists_2

    Maybe I did it right?

  1134. Just sent a book off to someone in Canada and never left my desk! I love technology 🙂

  1135. Thank you for continuing to write. Your second book helped me to understand what my mom was going through/feeling this last year. I found her after another attempt. Instead of getting mad I just held her. My son was just diagnosed with clinical depression and severe anxiety. It was reading your posts that opened my eyes that he needed help. Thank you so much for all that you do.

  1136. I am crying – not because I needed a book or got one, but because I keep clicking on links and so many of them are empty. I struggled with anxiety and depression and so much darkness for most of my life and am finally in a much better place and able to pay it all forward. Sending everyone love and support and books to those I could find!

  1137. Dear Jenny. I look forward to your posts everyday. Through good and bad, you remind me that we’re not alone in this insanity of a life. I like feeling like part of the tribe. It makes me feel a little less hopeless. Thank you for all the times you’ve made me laugh even though i was feeling sad. I’d really love to get to read your book. https://amzn.com/w/2P27Y0MHDXG1C

  1138. A big happy hug to @theologies, and @Cynthia k, as I sit here and cry my eyes out. Today, for at least a while, I mattered to someone.

  1139. Janie, #421 and #1125 your wish list still does not have an address attached. If you’re doing it from mobile, it won’t work. Jenny posted pictures up at the top for people because it’s a really silly process. If you can get it updated I’m sure someone will send you a book right away <3

  1140. Depression lies. It also keeps you in bed and away from awesome stuff like this. I’m late, I know. I’m also Canadian, so I don’t know if this will work for me. There are two books on my list. One is for me and one is for my younger son, who has had to put up with a lot of crap from me and my depression. He deserves the Lovecraft book. I share my account with him for financial reasons. I’m sure he has his own account, but I don’t know what it is. If you can help, I would greatly appreciate it!
    My thanks in advance.

  1141. I still can’t get over how great this idea was. It has been so nice to get a glimpse into so many other people’s lives, many of them struggling just like me. It’s humbling to know that I’m not walking alone in this dark and scary world. I had the pleasure of getting a couple of books for people and I’m so ecstatic for them to receive the books they need. Thank you, Jenny for bringing this group of people together and for hosting such an awesome idea.

    http://amzn.com/w/2W5JW3UZLAYP9

  1142. I didn’t realize that you did a similar book thing for Halloween. 2015 was kind of a lengthy and hard year, so I’m not surprised I missed it. My lovely college aged daughter bought me your most recent book as a Xmas book, and has gifted it to others as well.

    My friends and I have declared 2016 to be the Year of Charitable Giving, and between making hats and things last month for Cancer patients, and coats for greyhound rescues this month, and knitting all the things, it is wonderful to be able to participate in this. Thank you.

  1143. I’m getting to the party late, as I often do. My resolution this year was to read 100 books so ironically I already have book list going I’m also seeking suggestions as there are so many amazing books I may miss. I got some super frustrating news yesterday and my normal escape would be the bookstore but now moneys tight and its not an option. Here is my list, I also have many of my favorites stacked up at home that I can read 100 times and not get sick of. I wish you all happy reading!!!!
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/E374KQLTFUY8/ref=topnav_lists_2

  1145. Thank you thank you thank you to whoever purchased the book I wish-listed for our son’s birthday!! (I don’t blame you for picking the kid’s birthday wish over the ones for the adults….I’d do the same….because….BOOK-LOVING KID!) I put that book on his Christmas wish-list for his grandparents, but they never pick the books. Don’t bother asking why. I’m just grateful that he’ll be able to have the book for his birthday. I bet you anything he’s going to read it aloud to his dragon collection…

  1146. This Booksgiving has made my to-read list grow a 100x longer. I can’t convince myself to ask for a book because it sounds like many others need one more than I do but it made me very happy to send one out to someone! I wish I could afford to send out TONS of books to everyone!!

  1148. Looks like Booksgiving is a success!!

    We’ve had a very rough year. My father-in-law was diagnosed with ALS, and passed away a month ago. Between that and a very active little 2 yr old (and all the other normal stuff), I regained 20lbs that I had lost.

    This book is more expensive than I would normally ask anyone to pay for anything for me, but I’ve heard amazing things about the step by step process it uses to help get a person building muscle to get in shape. If anyone actually buys it for me, I will be amazed and beyond thankful!

    And thank you to anyone who can’t, but goes on to buy someone else’s book wish!

  1149. Anonmymous / 1147 – your book should arrive on Friday. Happy Booksgiving! Thanks for using Amazon Smile. I always use it for my local rescue group, too.

  1150. Whenever people ask me why I read so much, I say, “Because it’s the cure to life.” When people ask me why I read books, I say, “Jenny Lawson.” And when they ask me in the future, I’m going to give them the link to this post right here, because, damn, this right here is why you were put on the Earth. To make people happy. Keep working your magic.

  1151. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1250077001/ref=aw_wl_ov_dp_1_1?colid=3T4SWRIKS6BY4&coliid=I1F8IWHNO0YVXW
    Thanks Jenny for the delicious idea. It’s hard for me to say I need something from others. There are always people “worse off” than me and I feel guilty taking instead of giving. The last two months have been a particularly craptastic mental and emotional time. It would be nice to escape. I also plan to buy a book for someone else so they can experience what random kindness feels like.

  1153. Janie, #1144
    Darn! Still not. Amazon needs to change their list process. Click on ‘your lists’ and when the page loads there’s a link in the upper right corner that says ‘list settings’ then click ‘view details’ next to the book list. That’ll send you to a page where you can reenter a shipping just for that wish list. Hopefully that will fix the problem!

  1155. Now that my bank account is empty, I have been going through seeing how many people still have books left on their list so for anyone having trouble finding a list thats not empty, here are a few
    528, 641, 709, 620, 707, 537, 669, 650, 648
    Thanks

  1156. Well, the book I put on my list a little while ago is now gone from the list, so either I hit the wrong button and accidentally deleted it, or some wonderful generous soul has already purchased it for me as a gift. Wow. I don’t post here often (I mostly read this blog via a an RSS feed) but I’ve gotta say that this is quite possibly the most kind and wonderful community of folk I’ve come across in a long time. The generosity of spirit that I see here leaves me speechless. And I’m not just saying that, yannow?

    I and my partners have had a horrible horrible last-two-years. It’s the moments like this that remind me that there is still good in the world as well. Thank you, thank you. All of you. crying

  1161. Jenn, before I said ur book was like my spirit animal. . . could be cus u write what I think. On a date night w/ the bo we went to the movies and there was an kool looking ushers glow wand, I had a party on my planet(that’s what I call it, I like my planet even more now that I know its more like a galexcy)some random guy was filming me and I got creeped out till my love played some music on his cell and used it like a glow. I still have my moments of depression and anxiety along with arthritis and Lupus pain but ur books make my day…that and my 6yr old nomi

    I’ve tried to buy you both the book but your addresses don’t appear to be populating in your wishlists. Please could you double check them for me?
    Thanks ever so – sending love and light
    Beth xx

  1163. Thank you so much for happiness in the middle of another hard winter. Reading everyone’s comments has felt so good. My little one is napping so I am catching up here. Thank you to whoever purchased a book off our list!! I had a book list ready because my daughter’s birthday is coming soon and books are the best gift. This is the best website on the internet. Really. Thank you, Jenny. So much love to you all!

  1164. I thought I posted last night but don’t think it worked from my phone. So here I am today posting from a computer. This past year was a battle of illness and depression and now my child is fighting it as well. To see this whole thread brought a smile to my face and melts my heart. Looking forward to sending a book to someone who needs a little love and kindness in their mailbox. Love and Light!

    http://smile.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/3CG7OOL3G1TW0/ref=topnav_lists_2

  1166. I loved this so much that I came back today to gift more books. (Because books are wonderful!) Used up a Christmas gift card but it was worth it. Suzanne (#1120), Wendy aka Catlina Dances (#1137), Joanna (#1143), and Ashlee (#1141) – books are headed your way. Enjoy them!

    Thank you Jenny, for doing this. You’re a blessing.

  1167. I just got home to a box from Amazon– someone (with Prime Membership obviously LOL) gifted me both of Jenny’s books 😀 I am so thrilled and have happy tears… my current story isn’t as sad as a lot here (though it has been at other times in my life), but it’s very real and hurts deep, so thank you to another Heather for brightening my day!! 🙂

  1168. A wonderful idea I hope I can be part of.

    Books are some of my best friends, especially since I became disabled with a few chronic illnesses. I may spend all day stuck in bed, but at least they let me travel.
    https://amzn.com/w/RWNFRXQ223ZZ

    I sent a few books to some people, I’m sorry but my migraine brain doesn’t remember your comment numbers, but Savannah O’B, and Kristie R (both comments were in the 400’s I think), your books should be there Friday!

  1169. I suffer regularly from depression, and I’m coming up on the anniversary of a day that brings me to my knees every year. Reading is my therapy (along with actual therapy, so don’t worry), but money is tight right now, because, well, therapy isn’t cheap, and it’s hard to be so depressed and keep the checks coming. I chose “A Man Called Ove” because it’s supposed to be hilariously uplifting, and I need an uplifting distraction.
    Thank you, Jenny, for spreading joy. You don’t know how many times you’ve encouraged me to keep going.

  1171. This is amazing. A fan and fellow librarian pointed me to this site. I had major surgery just over a month ago and I received book suggestions to help me deal with the solitude of a prolonged recovery time. While my physical recovery is on track, I am struggling to maintain my mental health. I am a woman diagnosed with bipolar disorder and the routine of my daily life helped me tremendously; being home alone for 6 weeks and counting, not so much. Thanks Jenny and thanks to all of the people who want to give but aren’t in a position to do so, and to those who are in the position to give and have chosen to give the gift of books to others. Blessings and peace to all . https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/3VG9LYAZMPZWO/ref=cm_wl_list_o_1?

  1172. My parents were broke as $%# while I was growing up, but they did anything to keep us reading. Me and mine are only just pulling out of a severe income crunch, so it is a blessing to be able to pay out some of the kindness that was sent my way.

    Kudos to everyone brave enough to ask for help, and thanks, Jenny, for creating the platform for this.

  1174. Ok, I’m posting a list. This week has been both hellish and sweet because my almost 2 year old had a fever for 4 days and insisted I sit with him in my lap while he watched Super Why 24 hours a day. And for the first 2 and a half days I was reading Winter by Marissa Meyer, and it was SO GOOD! But the thing is I got it from the library, and when I escaped for a bathroom break, my little sick dictator found a pen and added to the story. 🙁 And I was JUST talking to my husband about how we needed to tighten the budget, so it really sucks. So I thought I’d put this out there in case someone wants to buy me another copy which I would dutifully give to the library and start my collection of this wonderful series with a copy that will always remind me of my little boy and the kindness of strangers. 🙂 Thank you, if anyone does buy it!
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/XGHNF25SQMKB/ref=cm_wl_huc_view

  1177. This is just amazing. Thank you to everyone who is being so generous, I am in tears (in a good way!) right now seeing that my list is empty. Thank you Jenny and thank you to such a beautiful community.

  1178. Today I was able to leave the house and go to work. Success. Here is a list of self help and other books that I’ve been told are good to use to help manage. On a side note I’m freaking out I have my first therapy appointment tomorrow morning. I finally took the step to get therapy help and I had been on a eight month waiting list.
    Hope this helps someone else as well

  1180. I would love a new copy of this book! I received it as a Christmas gift from my husband. He read it and, although he also found it hilarious on its own, said that it gave him insight into the struggles our daughter and I face with anxiety so he wanted me to read it as well. I gave it to a friend because I knew she would love it, but I really want to re-read it (pretty much every day because I feel like I am reading my own life).
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=2EDVJJRWHRXGS&type=wishlist

  1181. I was going to say that this is a great way to get book recommendations but people are having books gifted so quickly it won’t work! I am still in awe that there are so many here who are so willing to help others. Booksgiving is melting my cynicism.

  1182. Brandy (#1063), “Hyperbole and a Half” is on the way. Should arrive on Friday. Happy Booksgiving!

  1183. Jenny love your writing, I really enjoyed reading “Let’s Pretend This Never Happened”. I would love to read Furiously Happy. No funds for extras, I added a book for my son, his birthday was on Monday.

    ww.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1SMQI1V7HNM2H/ref=cm_wl_list_o_0?

  1185. @Tristan (from the UK) I’m not sure if you’ll see this but you don’t seem to have a shipping address assigned to your list. Or I am being inept, quite possibly that!

  1187. Thank you, Carey H! Just told my daughter that someone else was happy she was reading and sent her a copy of her favorite book to keep. So excited, she’ll be checking the mail definitely. Thank you again.

  1188. Thank you so much to whoever bought my book for me, I was #713. I was going to use a gift card to buy it myself so now I was able to use that gift card to pay it forward 🙂
    Genna, #685, Let’s Pretend This Never Happened is headed your way. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

    Misty

  1190. Jenny…this is an awesome plan. I hope the books I sent will help brighten the day for those deserving folks. Thanks for Furiously Happy. After listening, I realized I’m not the only one. You have no idea (or maybe you do) how much that helps!!! If anyone wishes, here is my own list: https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1NQLLYCY7U1N9/ref=topnav_lists_2 . Thanks to everyone and for everyone who said “you may want to choose someone more deserving,” YOU TOTALLY DESERVE A BOOK!!!

    Petey

  1191. ok, just for fun i went through 400-500. these are still have books on the list in case anyone wants to get something:

    407, 408, 414, 417, 421, 426, 427, 429, 435, 444, 446, 449, 450, 452, 457, 465, 471 (though i think she got one book on her list), 487, 497

    409, 458 and 479 need to check their links i think.

    if a few people take 50 or 100 to look over we can update and see who else needs books 🙂

  1193. Did i say it already? You guys are awesome and a very good community!!
    Keep it up people! you have no idea how you are helping!!
    I am so amazed right now…

  1194. I don’t know if there are any would-be Book Gifters still looking for unfilled requests, but since my request earlier was filled within a couple of minutes of posting (THANK YOU!) I suspect there may be one or two… If so, and you feel inclined, would you consider this request on behalf of my best friend Caz, who could really do with a Surprise Good Thing?

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2F9BLI7SKR88L/ref=cm_wl_huc_title

    She’s physically disabled, has multiple mental health issues and is poor as a church-mouse… and yet she’s among the kindest, most generous-spirited people I know. The request is for a copy of Furiously Happy and/or Hyperbole and a Half, and I’d buy them for her myself if I could. Right now I can’t, so if you’re looking for an unfilled Book Wish, maybe consider my friend here? Surprise books (especially these two!) would really make her day. 🙂

    (BTW, I’ve set the mailing address for that Amazon list to go directly to her. )

  1196. Elise,

    Enjoy your poetry book!!! As a poetry teacher your book request made me smile. You’ll be getting it on Saturday. 🙂 Happy Booksgiving!

  1197. I’m a very new reader on this blog and just blown away by the response to this. I have the amazing fortune to have been able to gift a book or books to a dozen people in these comments and it has made my week to be able to do so. As a children’s librarian, I went for the kid books because I love helping to get books into the hands of kids. As a former independent bookseller I have certain feelings about Amazon, but this use of it is beyond incredible. Thank you, Jenny, for this opportunity.

  1200. Simplydab #951 your books should be there in the next couple of weeks, hope you enjoy them.

  1202. Anon, thank you SO MUCH! Incredible. I can’t wait to read it and to pay it forward someday.

    #485

  1203. hfinn212 – genius idea!
    I checked 300-400, below are the wishes still to be fulfilled:
    310 and 387 – check yours, they say “can’t be purchased as a gift at this time”, whatever that means.
    316 – check your link
    399, yours is a link to Jenny’s book, rather than your wish list.
    313, 314, 323, 338, 345, 347, 352, 356, 364, 369, 371, 376, 377, 397

  1205. abbymax (1183), books on the way to you and your son. Happy Booksgiving! It appears that somehow I’ve ordered 2 copies of Furiously Happy…I don’t know how I did that but in the spirit of Booksgiving, if you do get 2 copies, pass one along to someone else. Happy Birthday to your son too!

  1206. Thank you to whoever ordered my books. Today was not a very nice day, but I guess even at our lowest points we can always turn it around. Booksgiving is officially my favorite holiday, and a complete success.

  1209. This is amazing! After a super crappy week, I’m so so so very happy I could send Furiously Happy to others and share the love of reading with some young readers.

    I’ve read both of Jenny’s books and have been working my way through Brene Brown’s. So here is my wish: https://amzn.com/w/TPT23ZBDHTNV

    Love this community!

  1213. Jenny…you are an inspiration. I have anxiety and depression and I struggle with both daily. That being said…I could really use a copy of this book. I, however, am not sure I did the wish list right…even with pictures. Here is the link:

  1215. I absolutely love this! I have been watching the thread all day. It’s so nice to see the good in the world. 3 individuals have books on the way from me. It feels so great to share the love of books and I have loved seeing all the different ones that people are interested in as well. This is one of the days that I find technology amazingly wonderful.

  1217. It was a long hard day but made so much better by discovering my wishlist was empty. I honestly cried happy tears, and when I told my son he’d get that Princess Celestia book and why his face lit up with joy and to whoever did this my son has a message to you “I love you so much for being kind!”

    Thank you

  1218. Links in the 800s unfilled

  1219. To Becky, whoever you are: Thank you so much for granting my wish! I have had a really tough week dealing with my younger daughter, who developed a number of physical and mental disabilities after brain surgery for her epilepsy, and I know reading anything by Jenny will brighten my day.

  1221. I hesitated to comment with my wishlist, but since I devoured both of Jenny’s books from our local library, I can’t really go back and bookmark, or underline, or re-read the parts that really got me through some lonely times…so here goes my list and maybe I can come back and help someone with their “forever” copy 🙂 <3 Anita Jo
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=3SWB92ULMMCKI&type=wishlist

    (Check your email. Book coming your way. 🙂 ~ Jenny)

  1224. hfinn212 —– I did the next 100 so 500-599
    Some of these may have already received one or have addresses missing, These are just ones that still have books from yesterday. I love seeing the ones with more than one book, that means you couldn’t pick just one and someone else can pick for you.

    505, 506, 511, 512, 519, 522, 526, 528, 530, 533, 539, 539, 549, 557, 565, 580, 582, 587, 588, 595, 596, 598

  1227. Thank you again to the person who got me Jenny’s book, and also thank you to the person who got me the couple of knitting books I added later!

    Question for the tribe – any recommendations for books for the people in our lives who are dealing with those of us who struggle? I’m so blessed to have someone who loves me and he tries, but he doesn’t understand. I thought a book might help him 🙂

  1228. Not sure if anyone will see this comment, because it’s pretty far down at this point. I’ve been under a lot of stress basically since November, for one reason or another. (Health problems, being unexpectedly fired from work, trying to get used to freelancing, family member had surgery, relational problems with a roommate.) I’ve been going back and forth on whether I want to try this book out, whether it’d even help. I’ll leave it here just in case someone would see it: https://amzn.com/w/33I3JNPMB1UOT

  1229. Abbymax – your link comes up as a typo…. if you go to the wishlist and look for the share -> email option, copy the link from there, that might work better! 🙂 I tried to look at yours as books make great birthday gifts. 😀

  1232. I don’t know how to thank Jenn from Colorado for buying a book for me. I couldn’t stop crying for a while, because, in a time where I am simply trying to survive each day, the kindness of a stranger hits all the feels.

  1233. just ordered a book for somebody on here. opted for standard shipping though as I couldn’t afford the extra p&p (exchange rates, …guess that’s what I get for being the only brit at this end of the comments block) lol 🙂

  1237. You rock, Jenny! I love listening to you read your work through audible. I put you up there with all my favorite comedian/authors (Poehler, Fey, Dratch, Kaling, and Day). So thank you! Thank you for giving me, and others, something to escape to, without having to be so far removed from reality that we can’t take your anecdotes with us. It means everything to be giggling along with you, and this community, when the unthinkable takes place in my own life.

  1239. I sent your book onto a friend of mine who is going through a rough time. I felt she needed it because with your help, I too feel furiously happy <3

  1240. I know its a day late but I’ll give it a shot. I have a book on my wish list that I’ve been wanting to buy for my nephew. He’s an amazing kid and is my light on dark days because I’ve spent a lot of time taking care of him.

  1245. Hello! I love your writing. It keeps me floating. I bought your first book, and it is now being mailed around the country between friends. I would love a copy of your new book. Here is my tiny reading wish list for me, and my newborn. Thank you for all the joy you bring into the work.

  1247. You are a generous, wonderful person. I hope everyone who needs to read your books, gets the opportunity to do so. I have a copy and love it. I will lend it out but it must come back to me!

  1253. Not sure if anyone’s still doing this but I love this idea. I had a super traumatic pregnancy and birth experience and now I’m a stay-at-home mom (thanks, understanding company, for making me leave my job because i used up my leave time in the hospital trying to hold my twins in) two preemie twins. They have special needs, we are struggling financially, and I could just straight up use some escapism and cheer. Thanks to anyone listening!

    Link: http://amzn.com/w/3BHJIKV2Z7V36

    PS: Got your latest book for Christmas and I swear to God it was the first thing that made me want to stay up late since I had my kids!!!

  1254. Hello Kailynn,
    Thank you so much if I’m the Elise you sent the book of poetry. If it’s another Elise, I thank you on her behalf! Great poetry always lifts me up. Many blessings to you…
    Elise

  1259. I got not one but BOTH of your books TODAY ALREADY! It was a wonderful gift and just in time bc I pretty much lost my stuff on a mom I barely know when the straw broke the camel’s back this evening. I had to admit to my daughter that there is a 50/50 chance she lost a friend bc the mom is either going to feel insanely sorry for me or she is going to think I’m bat shit crazy, which to be honest, is probably not all that far from the truth lately. I can’t wait to start reading. Thanks again for this wonderful gift whoever you are!

  1260. http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/25ROQKNL1X1SO/ref=cm_wl_huc_view
    Hi thank you so much for reading this. Your books, have inspired me to start a blog, began a podcast, and write a book. I was discharged out of the navy after 12yrs with Depression, Anxiety and I wanted to give up, but I came across your first book, which really made me believe that I can do it, then i saw the other book and was like wow. thank you for inspiring me to be a better person, to come out of my shell and speak my mind. I am not sure how good of a blog i write, because i just write. no spell check, no font check.
    thank you for all that you do and inspire me
    yours truly

    (Thank you so much! And a book is on the way to you now. ~ Jenny)

  1261. Melissa 1258 thank you! I added my shipping address. It was tricky from my mobile. I am so excited!!!

  1262. To Jo Evans, from 1147. Thank you so much! I cannot tell you how much I am looking forward to it. I promise I will pay the Universe for your kindness. <3

  1265. Lauren Jeanne #1246, A book is on the way for your baby! It should arrive by Wed the 10th. Enjoy!

  1266. For anyone who thinks their wish was not fulfilled: Go to your Amazon list, click on “List Settings” and UNCHECK the box that says “Don’t spoil my surprises.” Otherwise, the item will still be in your list, and it won’t show that someone gifted you.

    I thought my link didn’t work or maybe my comment just got lost in the noise because my item still appeared in my list, but the lovely person who gifted me left me a comment. So now I don’t feel passed over.

    Thank you again, everyone, for restoring faith in humanity. Is this going to be an annual thing? Semi-annual? It needs to be!

  1267. I’m not sure if this is still going on but I could definitely use a reason to smile. It warms my heart just reading through this.

  1269. I’ve been spending the last few hours creeping through the wishlists at random. So many empty ones, and I feel like I won a lottery if I can quickly purchase a book for someone before it’s bought by another person! Such a wonderful idea and community here.

  1270. I’ve been struggling with anxiety and depression for a while and books are always my go-to way to feel better, so I love this idea!

    I know I’m…uh, a little late, but here is my link: http://amzn.com/w/23CDSAXVHDJHL

    And now I will go and try to find an item on someone else’s list that does not blow my college-student budget, since giving other people books they’re excited about is the best feeling in the world 🙂

  1272. Wendy K. and Heather P. Thank you SO much! Also thank you to you Jenny, dear Bloggess! You are a light in a world that can often be SO dark…The extra day made it so I could scrounge a little bit to be able to pay it forward as well. It is a great feeling to be able to give a little something to brighten someones day.

  1276. MR #938 I really wish this would let me reply to your comment to THANK YOU! I hope you see this!

  1277. Kel,you might need to check your address settings, sweetie. It didn’t auto-load it for me. :/
    About to go to bed, but happy to carry this into tomorrow.

  1278. OK, I guess I didn’t have a shipping address on mine. So I’ll post it again. A few books my son wants, and one I wish I could splurge on.

  1280. http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/F3O4CLQYAS0W/ref=cm_wl_list_o_1?

    I posted at 1140, but managed to muck it up, of course. I will try it again. Sorry for being a persistent pain in the butt.
    If someone can help, it will be much appreciated. Teaching my 15 year old son that depression lies. We’re a support group of two!
    Jenny, I caught him reading Let’s Pretend in the bathroom. The only reason I noticed was because he happened to be reading the story about you being trapped in your bathroom while the home invaders kept slipping you a note under the door.
    I have not heard laughter of that magnitude from that boy in months. Laughter is golden, but our children’s laughter is more precious than anything on this planet. Thanks for reminding my kid how to really, really laugh.

  1283. (The comment box is getting distorted on my end so I don’t know if this will work Xo)
    I, too, have severe anxiety issues, so I wasn’t able to meet you when you signed your first book for me, I sent a friend instead. I bought a copy for my cousin as well, we both have social anxiety, it runs in the family, so we both very much identify with the stories. I would love to read your newest book but I’ve become disabled and unable to work in the last 18 months due to a genetic disorder called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. I’ve been housebound for several months and could use something to lift my spirits smile emoticon Xo Here is my link to my wish list, if you or anyone else is able to help. Thank you so much, just you thinking of us this way is so kind! Xo

    http://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/2GHDW7VF85KQK

  1286. A Friend 1251, three books are on their way to your friend and her kids – should be there by Saturday. Best to all of you!

  1287. Lisa, THANK YOU, that was so kind of you. Sorry it’s late, my son is sick again, second time this winter.
    Jenny, please, please write another book, I love your sense of humor.

  1289. Thank You Erin Stretch! You bought my book less than a minute after I posted and it made me burst into tears, I DO feel less alone, I can’t thank you enough! <3
    It’s funny, it’s less the book than your kindness and your note. I’m truly touched <3

  1290. Erin S, a book should be coming your way soon!

    And GeekGirl318, my address should be fixed now, if not please let me know

  1292. Too much overtime, and just saw this. Wishing I could buy a book for someone As this is the brilliance of community. Caring for one another.

  1293. crankybytch, I got the same address issue for you too. Sorry.

    Three of you are getting books, but I honestly didn’t track all the screen names when I was looking for wish lists that still had things to buy. Surprise, whoever you are!

  1295. Holy shit you guys are all such an amazing group of people! My faith in the human race is being restored as I browse through all the comments & see all the kindness! Now I have to get back to reading my copy of Furiously Happy! Thank You again & I look forward to paying it forward when I get back on my feet!💖📚

  1296. OK I added some children’s books for my son I hope that’s not against the rules. Alex will b 6 in may and he just devours books faster than we can get them especially since we started home schooling him. If its not OK then please delete I don’t want to go against thee spirit of this cuz I was already blessed enuf to get both of Jenny’s books! BTW lots of love to u jenny!u r amazing!

  1297. @Amber #760 – I could see but not reply to comments while I was at work earlier, and I went straight from one job to the 2nd so I haven’t been able to get in here – THANK YOU. You made me all sniffly at my desk and I’m glad my boss didn’t walk in during that period. I’m not sure my dog is as uplifted by this as I am, but I’m still gonna read him a chapter when it gets here.

    Thank you for giving us something to look forward to. <3

  1300. I’m reading all these comments from people going through legitimately terrible things, and I’m not. I know I’m not. I have family, security and health, and in general things are really fine, other than dealing with quite a few assholes. I know things are fine, but I’m staying on the border of a panic attack and just want to cry and scream and howl and hide under furniture and bite someone and be invisible at the same time. Almost every new thing is making me feel like this. I talked someone down from a panic attack today, and I honestly wanted to join them. Maybe we could have lost our shit together and that would have finally helped something. I just… need to be surprised by something not overwhelming right now, if that’s OK.

    http://amzn.com/w/1DZZUJVQSTD0

  1301. Hey there Strangelings!! I made it my mission to make sure nobody got buried in the long line of comments here (and there are a lot…so many, holy cow I love you guys! <3)

    Here are all the wishlists still open up to #1250. Below that is a list of people who forgot to add their shipping address!! It makes me so sad to think they feel unwanted because no one has send them a book so I’m hoping they will see the error soon and fix it and you can check the links for good ones =)

    If I missed anyone I’m so sorry!!! My eyes are starting to cross

    Also, I wasn’t going to ask for a book myself because I asked someone to send my best friend one who needed it more than me. But going through all those lists has me feeling impatient and grabby and if someone wants to get me one too I won’t say no > .> haha.

    <3

    (Now I’m going to take tylenol and actually eat. And maybe ice my wrist. Ow, haha, JK……maybe)

  1305. HI everyone I am a bit late to this.
    First of all this has warmed my heart! You are all wonderful.

    My issues keep me very isolated from the world, but with this blog and Jennys twitter..I feel just a bit connected and I feel so much less alone. I may not have the courage to actually talk to anyone out there very often..but seeing everyone in the community Jenny has created just makes such a difference. I would really love to have Jenny’s books, I read the first one and it made me laugh so much. https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/KL8GY49AMMPU/ref=topnav_lists_1

    One day I hope to be in the position to do this for others.
    This has all warmed my heart 🙂

    Thank you Jenny for all you do xx

  1306. Thanks for trying geekgirl. I tried to put it in again, but I really don’t know what I’m doing. The thought means as much as the gift. 🙂

  1308. Arg. Trying to post the list for everyone still looking and it’s not working! Let me try this again.

  1309. My first take didn’t seem to show up. Let’s see if this one works <3

    Hey there Strangelings!! I made it my mission to make sure nobody got buried in the long line of comments here (and there are a lot…so many, holy cow I love you guys! <3)

    Here are all the wishlists still open up to #1250. Below that is a list of people who forgot to add their shipping address!! It makes me so sad to think they feel unwanted because no one has send them a book so I’m hoping they will see the error soon and fix it and you can check the links for good ones =)

    If I missed anyone I’m so sorry!!! My eyes are starting to cross

    Also, I wasn’t going to ask for a book myself because I asked someone to send my best friend one who needed it more than me. But going through all those lists has me feeling impatient and grabby and if someone wants to get me one too I won’t say no > .> haha.

    Gentle hugs and cookies for everyone who’s been so crazy awesome <3

  1310. I’m guessing it’s getting put in moderation sigh
    Sorry! Hopefully it’ll show up in the morning, if not I’ll try again <3

  1311. Lauren Jeanne #1246
    I’m glad to report I’m happy to say,
    Cooking Giraffes are now dancing your way!!

  1312. http://amzn.com/w/99CR9QZ9MEY1

    I understand if this gets lost in a sea of over 1,000 comments, but I wanted to give it a shot. I work with adolescent boys who are in recovery for substance abuse. Many also have psychiatric issues, behavioral problems, and unstable family environments. This, combined with my own depression, has resulted in my heart being in a perpetual state of achiness for the past several months. These boys are just so broken and lost, and sometimes I feel inadequate to help them, not to mention helpless when their inpatient time is done and we send them back to the same environment that triggered their use in the first place. I would appreciate a book to help me escape and maybe get a little bit of my strength back. Much love to whoever reads this regardless of whether or not you give.

  1314. Emma #1304, I would love to send you these books. However you need to fix the address part of your amazon wish list first. I will check back to see if it is changed.

  1315. That was so much fun… I’ve just gifted a book to a stranger and I hope she thoroughly enjoys it… Thank you Jenny for such a brilliant and thoughtful and wonderful idea – you are such a beautiful person!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂

  1318. Thank you to whomever purchased a book for Nate from my list. It’s been a long year filled with a whole lot of fear and anxiety on my end, and a whole lot of frustration on Nate’s end. Nate’s at such an age that thankfully none of their peers are judging the transition, but at the same time they are all so young that they think nothing of questioning Nate’s gender out loud. And Nate just doesn’t see why they are even asking because in Nate’s eyes she’s been a girl all along. I am beyond grateful to get any book that Nate can relate to, and that can be shared with Nate’s class to help them be more understanding. Thank you SO much. ♡

  1320. And Thank You to Jenny for doing all this. I read both your books just this last Holiday break. My mother had gifted me the second one, and I used a gift card to purchase the first two days later. I loved them, and related a little too well. And at times I laughed so hard that I cried. Which I hadn’t done in so long that my husband actually was taking pictures of me reading them. Thank you for writing, and for sharing it with all of us. ♡

  1322. Ahh, Sheri, you made my morning so much easier!
    Thank you! I love seeing all the empty wishlists, but it’s so great to find people to buy for

  1323. The community here is so inspiring! I hope to return the favor, one day soon. Y’all keep your fingers crossed for me that things will get better! In the mean time, big thanks to whoever purchased Furiously Happy for me! I cannot wait 🙂
    {{{BIG HUGS}}}

  1324. Oh – I love when we break Amazon!! 🙂 Awesome idea Jenny. I’ve all ready loaned my copy to a dear friend. She’s loving it too. <3 The book is truly fantastic. Have a great day.

  1326. crankybytch, I found your first e-edition list when I tried again, so you have two of those. Sorry.

  1328. Jenny, thank you so much for doing this! Getting emails from Amazon telling me books are on their way to random strangers feels as good as when I placed the order – like a second helping of dessert! I really needed this furiously happy experience this week. Seeing the tribe helping each other makes me feel less alone. I hope your book helps everyone as much as it did me! Thank you!

  1331. Thank you so much to the wonderful person who bought my son and I the Neil Gaiman book!! #941. During the last James Garfield Miracle, we had some money and were able to help a few people and I told my son if you help people when YOU can, people will help you when THEY can and that’s how we make the world a better place. Thank you for helping me teach him to be kind!

  1332. Anon comment #1307 — you don’t have an address. I’d already gifted on the first day, but when you mentioned Richard Scarry I couldn’t resist. I remember having his books when my kids were little — they helped with shapes and colors, my oldest (at age 18 mos) would point to everything round and say “pennies!”

  1335. Brittany (#1312) – Mad props for the work you do, and please know that while you may not see the good you’re doing, it’s out there. I did similar work for many years with adolescents (1 year outpatient, 2 years inpatient, 5 years prevention/intervention) and while I loved “my kids”, it’s heartbreaking. You may be the first person who’s ever cared about those boys, and they’ll carry that with them always. You’re making the world a better place. Your wish has already been fulfilled, but your post spoke to me and I just had to say something! 🙂

  1338. Jennifer #1238– Look for your book on Saturday!

    I’m late to this, as I’m rarely on a computer and didn’t want to try it on mobile. But I love this, and hope it becomes an annual event.
    Also decided that I should just go ahead and buy Furiously Happy for my daughter. I had it on my e-reader from the library the last time I sat in an ER for 2 days while they tried to find placement for her at a children’s psychiatric hospital. I ended up handing it over to her and she gobbled up half of it in that time. Hoping it can help her feel less alone.

  1339. Wow! Thank you to whoever purchased books from my wish list (#983). I’m stunned by the generosity of strangers. I’ve been having a tough time lately especially with the hate and vitriol I see in our country right now. Reading all of these comments and being on the receiving end of such love has helped to restore my faith in humanity. Thank you.

  1342. My bank called me to ask about all of the “suspicious” Amazon.com transactions I had- I had cancelled a transaction for some bakeware so I could have more Booksgiving money and they were concerned that maybe someone had stolen my card and was sending gifts all over the country. You should check on me but not on holidays involving books and no one’s books got held up! When I told the representative about what I was doing, she asked if she could contact me on her lunch break and I gave her my cell phone #- and she did, because she couldn’t discuss over the work phone personal stuff like Booksgiving – so everyone please say Hi to the nice bank lady who is here buying books with us and let all of my book purchases go through and didn’t blab to my husband! PHEW! More gravy for everyone!

  1345. Kaitlyn’sMom & Dawn ~ Thank you so much for the baby board books! I live far away from a quality book store and have been to tired and busy with baby to drive out and pick up the books I really love. (And I keep putting off renewing my prime membership to get some last minute thing I had no idea I needed for the wee one, so I keep putting off ordering online.) You really have made my month! I had to think outside the box as to how to pay it forward, since I am low on funds. In your name, I will gift some of my chickens to my elder neighbor, whom could use the eggs. She spends every penny on others, so I will be happy to spread your light her way!
    I do not have a website yet, but will post your pay it forward chickens at http://www.facebook.com/LollysEggs (a live Beyonce the Chicken!!!)
    Thank you for brightening my day!!!

  1347. Such a wonderful idea Jenny, so generous! I covered Mary who asked for her friend Kelly and also Cassie whose husband is going through a tough time. I wish I could do more. :hugs:

  1349. Canadian Angie @ 1344 – your link just pops to the generic “make a wishlist” page. Can you re-post?

  1350. I started off today, feeling a bit like I might be sinking- stupid reasons.. fight with a friend, parents aren’t coming for a visit.. you know. Small stuff. But I opened my Inbox today to find out ” a Friend of Jenny” bought me a book. And now.. I have this warm happy feeling inside and a smile. Thank you.

  1351. Thank you to the lovely person or persons who purchased something/somethings from my wish list. I am touched by your act of kindness. Bless you and anyone who gave anyone else something from a list. Virtual hugs to everyone, I hope you all have a fantabulous day. Thank you, Jenn, for coming up with this. 😀

  1352. You hit another one of the park, Jenny! You are appreciated and admired, crazy and all. (no pressuring expectations of perfection, just stay being exactly you).

  1356. Sheri (#1308) I tried to buy you a book to thank you for all the work you did in putting the list together and your link took me to my own wishlist (where I was a little slow to realize that and bought myself a book off my own wishlist. ) Please post it again!

  1358. I want to say thank you to the person(s) who fulfilled my list. My heart is full and I only hope my surprise for someone else makes them feel as happy and loved as I do!

  1359. 2015 included: the death of my mamma, no less than 5 hospital stays for me (3 included surgery – the last stay I got out on New Year’s Eve (our 10th wedding anniversary)), multiple other illnesses due to my AWESOME immune system, and congestive heart failure (at 36), the loss of our fur-baby standard poodle, a small car wreck, and me accidentally breaking two of the bones in my foot and tearing two ligaments… 2016 began with recurring bronchitis, and two weeks of a major depressive episode. I always say that things could be worse, but damn, they could be better too. Anyhow, I don’t know how many times I’ve wanted to pickup your book when things were “normal” for me last year, but I didn’t. I’m really regretting on passing on a signed copy too, there was just too much of “life” going on… anyhow, I know that I’m late to the party (like always) but I figured that I’d give it a shot. I didn’t mean to throw myself a pity party here, but sometimes it just happens. This idea is pure AWESOMESAUCE – I’m going to pay it forward when the timing is right. http://amzn.com/w/1BRTGDP3HFMNK

  1360. Kailynn – #780. Just got a message from Amazon that the delivery person has no access to your delivery location front door/building. You need to contact them at 1-877-252-2701. It’s order #104-5471872-9271466.

  1363. As I scroll through the comments, taking stock of this beautiful Booksgiving Experiment taking place, I am in awe. However, one thing I see repeated over and over is people minimizing their hurt, saying it’s not as bad as what others are going thru…Please don’t do that, folks! One person’s pain is no greater or worse than someone else’s! Pain is pain, it all hurts!

    Bless those who are giving and hoping that things turn around for those who are receiving! A special Thank You to Jenny for starting this whole snowball effect and giving us a Weird Wagon to jump on and feel comfortable riding

  1364. I came here to thank whoever bought from my wish list (#1005… THANK YOU so much) and saw andrewmoney’s post at 1359, which reminded me that no matter what I’m going through, someone always has it worse. Andrew, you’ve got a book on the way. Hoping that it puts a smile on your face the way others did for me.

  1365. I love, love, love that you do this. However it always makes me wonder when people say they love to read but can’t afford a book. Why not just go to the library? That’s free. I don’t read as much as I would like, but I’m cheap and never actually buy the books.

    (GIANT fan of libraries but sometimes it can be difficult to find one nearby, to get access, etc. When I was a kid the best days were when the bookmobile would stop near my house and my whole family would walk there to check out books. Driving into the next town would have been too much in gas. There are some libraries now that will mail out books or offer electronically delivered copies though so it’s a good thing to look in your area. ~ Jenny)

  1367. 641- Sarah. The book its on it’s way. I’ve read it and it’s lovely. Self harm is an evil monster that is hard to slay. But if I can do it, and fight though all the bad days, I am 100% sure you can as well. Sending you love. #bookssave

  1368. Wonderful gesture.
    Read furiously happy in December. I haven’t laughed so much, ever. I am now reading your blog from the beginning. I am coming to terms with my depression and OCD. Finally someone who understands. I am from India and support for political like us is little. So thank you for saving me.

  1370. Meg here (#57 +#98)
    Thank you so much for the people who have purchased books for me. I literally gasped out loud and started to cry with tears of surprise and joy. I dont know who you guys are, but just know that you made me so happy which is a great feeling from the constant depression and self hatred that I have for myself. Words cannot express how grateful I am for this.
    Friday (payday) I will give back to a few people to make them feel special too 🙂

  1371. Stacy, #1365 – libraries are great! I use mine all the time and love it…but Jenny’s books have long wait lists (about a year to get Furiously Happy here in Seattle), plus library books have to be returned. For something you might want to read over and over, and/or highlight your favorite parts, it’s a lovely luxury to have your own copy. 🙂

  1374. I am #714
    Thank you Loretta and thank you Jenny!
    I am completely grateful and overwhelmed to have received the book on my Amazon wishlist for my daughter’s birthday in May. Boom – it magically appeared – SO quickly, thanks to the kindness of a stranger named Loretta. : ) My girl will be delighted to add this book to her bookshelf as she loves this Sarah Mlynowski series.
    Happy Booksgiving to all and to all HAPPY READING!

  1376. Stacy, about the library……

    For some people, it’s a miracle to get out of the house. For others, the library isn’t easy to get to (lack of transportation options, for instance). And for some, the library is just fine, but they want the book to constantly refer back to and you can’t really do that with a borrowed book. As for me….. I can afford to buy books, so I do. But the reason I stopped going to the library has nothing to do with money and everything to do with time. I’m at work when it is open, except on Saturday. The local library on Saturday is very crowded and noisy, so no thanks. The library is great, and they get donations from me, but it’s not the be-all, end-all.

  1379. Sticklady1 you are 100% correct. Struggles and pain aren’t meant to be weighed and measured. Only healed. Everyone’s pain is important and remembering that will make the world a better place for everyone, especially those of us who deem ourselves less worthy than others. This whole experiance isn’t really about books or who can give and who needs. Its about showing every single person that they matter. Maybe they are needed to give someone something they desperately desire but can’t get (and I just don’t think I’ll ever believe borrowing a book from the library is as soul mending as owning one) or that they are giving someone else purpose by needing something that they can help with. Some people see 2 sides, giver and reciever, but I have begun to realise it all comes down to one thing. That we matter and make a difference just being here. And that’s really all anyone really wants. Thank you to everyone for finally helping me put in words the phenomenon I’ve been seeing for so long. Thank you to whomever gifted me in a time where running away seemed like the best thing I could do for those I love. Thank you for showing me that if I can see how so many people matter in so many many ways, that I must as well, even if I can’t always see it.

  1380. To the person who sent me a copy of “Furiously Happy” Thank you!!! (I was comment # 209) And thank you Jenny, for giving me hope that the world might not completely suck!

    I intend to pass my book on to someone else, with the instruction that they should do the same.

  1382. I know that I am late, but here we go:
    I’m Jessica and this time last year I was a medical resident (have my MD but learning to get license) at a hospital and volunteering at hospice when I had time. Then in May I was diagnosed with bi-polar disorder and had to be hospitalized. I lost my job because of missed time while in the hospital. I then spent from May-Oct in full time treatment both in and out of the hospital. Because of my missed time from the bi-polar my job will not allow me to go back. So I spent 9/5 years of my life in education and training and will never be able to treat patients again. During my own treatment I lost medical insurance and used what little I had saved up to pay the bills. While in treatment I took a class based on Brene Brown’s work and would really appreciate an opportunity to have one, just one of the two in my list, of her books to read on the train…I am crossing my fingers that I will get a new job soon. I cannot afford a book myself due to my medical debt and lack of current job. I know there are probably better people out there that deserve it…but it would mean the world.
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2IKF58JTGCRIP/ref=cm_wl_list_o_2?

  1386. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! I struggle with depression and over the last couple years, added anxiety. I appreciate you and your writing and your courage to do what is very hard. Thank you!!!!

  1388. Jerri DesJarlais #1385 Your wishlist has no shipping address. If you made it in mobile, there’s no option to do it. You have to go in and edit the wishlist settings from amazon’s main site <3

  1389. Oh my gosh, Catherine B #1381 – thank you for putting a tear in my eye and making me furiously happy at the same time! I truly wish everyone feels as lucky as I am at this moment. 🙂 <3 Big hugs!

  1391. My thanks to those who got me the book on my list!! I wanted some of my childhood back in the form of reading an old favorite, but I’m getting another part back as well-the faith that there are good people who will do a nice thing simply to be nice. I love this, and I’m so glad I got to be part of it!

  1392. I apologize for my short sighted thought about libraries. I have always lived in a town with a public library and had the means to get there, but both sets of my grandparents live in the middle of nowhere NM and TX so I should have known better. I also never thought about other things that may keep someone from going to the library, and preach about Jenny’s books having a forever long wait list. Like I said, I absolutely love that you do this and keep clicking on wishlists but they always seem to be purchased. I think I will just donate some books to the school library in honor of “booksgiving”.

  1393. Not sure if my comment got lost or hasn’t made it through yet – my browser crashed before I could tell if it submitted.

    Melody #1387 Your book should be coming between 3/3 – 3/16. It’s shipping from the UK.

  1397. Hey Stacy (#1392)!
    Comment #1301 is a great big list of all the open wish lists. Several still have Jenny’s books if that’s what you’re looking to send <3

  1399. I just realized that someone bought not one but both books on my list. I was shocked and kept looking at the screen and then had tears of joy. To know that someone I have never met was so very kind…please know, who ever you are, that your act has made a big difference in my life. Thank You.

  1402. Lauren #1246, Deir #1294 & Lisa #1296 your books should arrive on thursday, 2/11

    JB #1317 I’d love to buy The Day the Crayons Quit for you, but you have no address.

  1404. Tristan #429 – tried to gift you your book but you haven’t added your delivery address yet!

  1405. Thank you to the strangeling who bought me a copy of Furiously Happy. There is a warmth in knowing that someone else out in the world is willing to send me a dose of happy. Today has been a heavy one, thank you for lighting my load a bit. 🙂

  1407. Just bought a book for someone on the list and it felt so good that I was hoping to see what it feels like to be on the receiving end! This was a great idea, Jenny! Have read you for years and never posted but this concept inspired me.

  1409. I WON! I WON IWONIWON!!!!! I feel like I won the lottery, not just a copy of Jenny’s book! Thank you so much to whoever gifted it to me! You’ll never know how much I appreciate it! I have no words!

  1412. You guys are amazing. I had to search so long before I found a book to give someone. Just being a part of this has made me happier than I have been in days. I’m including my list but please give to others before you give to me. 2015 was a bitch but I’m in better shape than many and really I would just love something to distract me while I wait to hear if I was accepted to grad school.

    https://smile.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=3OD3WJI4O79IR&type=wishlist

  1415. When I was in college all I wanted was to have a job where I could buy a hardback if I wanted…now I do ebooks mostly (and audiobooks–that’s how I “read” Furiously Happy!”) So glad to send a book or two to someone else.

  1416. Mom2Boys (#1340), I hope your son enjoys this book. Does he want to study forestry science? We need all the scientists we can get to save the world.

    #1329 – I chose to send Brene Brown. I love her work, I hope you do, too.

    #1413 – Hamlet von Schnitzel will be to you soon.

    Thank you so much, Jenny, for giving us this opportunity. It’s like Christmas, but with fewer considered stabbings, and more love.

  1417. Proving yet again how wonderful thou art Ms. Lawson, this is a generous and wonderful idea. It also gives me an excellent opportunity to actually own this book, as I bought a copy of “Furiously Happy” at your Toronto book-signing, raffled it off at a Mental Health Peer Support group meeting, and all the proceeds went back to the group (MHPSO in Toronto). Heavy sigh. I’m a bit of a dork, as I was too embarrassed to admit what I’d done.

    If I don’t win and/or receive a copy I will buy one eventually, and thank you for being the best Bloggess ever. Here goes:

  1418. Aimee who sent to me (I was #556) – thank you!

    And as promised (now that payday has happened), I came back to pay it forward. #1414, I hope it makes you smile.

  1421. Mom2Boys, comment #1340: I’m a high school teacher with a degree in environmental biology and I would dearly love to get your son a book but someone beat me to it. If you want, put another book on the wishlist and let me know, or contact me at my gmail address: eileensc

  1422. Thank you for reaching out, Anonymous #1335. Your understanding is comforting beyond words. Sometimes I get so caught up in the day-to-day that I overlook the big picture. I am occasionally reminded of the true impact we make when former clients call to check in and say hi, or parents of former clients give us positive updates months later. However, those calls are few and far between. I don’t have children, but I imagine it’s what empty nest syndrome feels like. All you can do after they go is hope and pray that some of the lessons stuck and you never see their name in the obituary.

    And of course, thank you for the e-book. I am already daydreaming about reading it with a big mug of hot tea as soon as I get off work tomorrow. I am going to ban myself from checking work e-mail throughout the weekend and practice some self-care for a change.

  1426. Oh, Lorraine, #1416, thank you so much!!! He is going to be thrilled and yes, he is planning to study something like conservation biology, or environmental science, and will be applying to UC Santa Cruz later this year.
    And fourfeetonetrip #1421, you are so generous! The other one he wanted isn’t out until September. It’s called “The Hidden Life of Trees: What They Feel, How They Communicate—Discoveries From a Secret World”. Thank you for your offer and for what you do every day!

  1427. 1340 Mom2Boys – Your book for your son is a pre-order of a new edition that won’t be released for several months. You may have to give him a note that he will have a copy hot off the presses when it is released! I hope he finds is as fascinating as I would!

  1430. Thank you so much whoever has been buying my son children’s books. I’m so awed by all this generosity! It makes me cry to know that somebody out there cares! The real world is so harsh and Alex is already at a disadvantage being autistic and people r just soo mean sometimes! People like you give me hope for his future for when I’m no longer here to take care of him. Thank you for this experience.

  1432. Tonik #1161: Your copy of “Let’s Pretend This Never Happened” is on it’s way! It should be there between Feb. 10-26, according to Amazon. Hopefully it will make you weep with laughter like it did me. Feel free to add another book to the list and e-mail me, and it’ll get done. Reading is the best escape.

  1433. Thank you so much, William J! I received my Jenny Larson books today. I was sick all day, feeling kinda worthless, and then they arrived. You took my breath away. I can’t stop smiling. Thank you Jenny for this marvelous idea! I will pay it forward…

  1434. All of you in this community – you’re the best! Jill, who bought me a book (and figured out that I added the pre-order paperback but somehow managed to buy the hardback) – you’re a rockstar!

    I’m almost crying at work. There’s something so amazing about just knowing that people care even though they’ve never met you. And Jenny, to have created such an incredible group of people who actually give unselfishly and want to share, wow. Just wow.

    It’s better than Christmas!

  1435. Just another broke teacher (#1425): I’d love to you buy you the book, but I’m not seeing a shipping address!

  1437. Carmen 1341, Please check to be sure your shipping address is attached. Then I can send your book!

  1438. THANK YOU!!! Receiving books today was AWESOME! It was a blessing after a truely crap past few months!

  1439. Thank you thank you thank you to “Micah”, who so awesomely sent a book to my friend Barbara (#411 request)! This project is so great, thank you to Jenny too for putting this together!

  1440. I debated on whether to add my wishlist or not as there are so many others who could use the help, but I decided I would for my littlest students. I work with DCF/homeless children through a family child care system and there are books that I would love to build curriculum around that I just don’t have the extra money to purchase myself following being out of work for 6 months due to a fall and head injury. So if any of you would like to help, I am including my wishlist. I really don’t mind used books, so if it’s cheaper, please choose those. Thank you so much for any help you can offer. 🙂

  1441. A few hours ago I asked for a book and my wish was granted two fold. At the same time I said I was waiting to hear about a job. Well, a couple hours ago I got the offer. The books that are coming will really help jump start this new path as I read them on the commute. Thank you to those who gave and for Jenny who inspired this. As soon as I get a paycheck I will be donating to a charity to giveback.

  1442. I’ve brought a book for a second person now, will check back when I next get paid (ok, late feb….but better late than never!) to see who is left and buy for a third person then 🙂 wish I could afford to buy more today.

  1444. Beth (#1435), I went in and fixed the list, if you’re still interested in sending the book. Thank you so much!

  1445. I’ve been struggling with a whole host of exciting medical complications since my now 4 year old daughter was born. My neurologist told me I was one in a million with my very rare strain of Guillian Barre. I’m the crazy looking lady that shows up to drop my girl off at preschool in my pajamies with my hair sticking out everywhere at 12:00pm. I love reading, but I lose library books with my memory problems too often to be able to check things out, and today I found out that the BBC has pulled streaming Doctor Who off every site I could afford. (All the Whoovians in the house, holla!) I also struggle with keeping friends because of depression and the whole memory stuff. (I can literally forget someone exists until I find my phone and see them in the contacts.) Anyhoo… I feel better just having put my struggles out there. I did already receive one book from an angel, but I guess I just wanted to talk. Thank you for the listening ears, and big jedi hugs to all. Just following Jen and her army online has made my life so much less lonely feeling.

  1446. k8heron (#371) Sending you your crochet book from the other side of the Pacific!

  1451. Sharon from Texas #1427 you are a blessing! I will print your note out and put it in a card for him for his birthday 🙂 THANK YOU!!!

  1452. This is such a fantastic idea. Loved Furiously Happy (total pick me up read)

    I think I’ve done this correctly… I already had a list going (because sometime I needed to treat myself as a reward for getting through the day). Just had to make it public, which I think I did??

    Now, to buy some people some happiness

  1453. Hi sodonne7 post #650 your wish list does not include your address. I tried to send you a book but couldn’t. Hope you are able to get it fixed so you can get your book 🙂

  1455. #1440 out of time mom, can you link your mailing address? I’d like to send these children a book.

  1457. Thank you to the two amazing women that bought me books and showed me love, kindness and support. This was one of my hard weeks and coming home to books has made me smile and cry. Thank you Jenny Lawson for showing us your dark places and teaching us that they are not always bad places to be. You have helped our dark places become more gray by letting us know that we can take a flashlight with us and make shadow puppets and inappropriate gestures.

  1460. I just realized I posted (1443) anonymously, oops! Thank you Jenny for giving the gift of giving. I never knew it would be so joyful to give a book directly to someone I never met.

    “A book is a dream that you hold in your hand.”
    –Neil Gaiman

  1461. Some days are worse than others. And some days you come home to a book sent to you by someone you don’t know. Some days have pretty, sparkly edges.

  1462. https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=2XQCMUCFJIWG3&type=wishlist

    I spent most of the day getting testing done at my new psychiatrist’s office. Apparently describing how you operate at work as “work, work, ohhh shiny” doesn’t pass muster to get continuing care for adhd. It was a long day and I had to come home and take a nap with my dogs. Anyway, I’m going to be searching through the list to gift someone a book as long as I don’t get distracted by something.

    Jenny, thank you for being an amazing writer and sharing your stories with us. I still laugh out loud when I think of the chapter “Jenkins, You Motherfucker”!

  1464. I’ve never commented here before, though I’ve lurked. =) I’ve fallen back into these stories when things were hard and I was struggling, and when I was broke and quietly breaking down a long way from family and friends, and just needed a reminder that there were other crazy people out there who let their strangeness define them and were brilliant and amazing for it.

    I’m so happy with how things are for me right now and I’m so excited and hopeful for the future. It means a lot to pay that forward, cause I wouldn’t be where I am without the help of complete strangers. (This is the first philanthropic post one been able to participate in! I’m helping!) Thank you for all that you do- Jenny, and all you other fabulous people who bring your own brand of awesome to the world <3

  1469. To D. Rhoda – you are my hero. I needed this in my life so bad right now and your unfathomable generosity has left me speechless (and teary-eyed – I haven’t stopped crying since starting this comment). I’m so glad for the reminder that there are amazing people out there who care – even when it’s about a stranger.

  1470. If anyone wants to get books digitally from their local library, you must check out an app. Alled OVERDRIVE this app is awesome. All you need is a current library card, then you can borrow ebooks or audiobooks even magazines thru the app & read or listen to books without ever having to leave your home! A great option for those of us who have social anxiety! I went to my library to renew my library card and then downloaded the Overdrive app on my kindle and my iphone. Then I searched my library in the app (which in my area is the Pioneer Library System), o opened an account using my library card number & pin (which the library gave me) and waaala, I had access to every library within a four county area! It is an awesome app & I highly recommend it! My Overdrive app has been a lifesaver for me and without it I would have truly lost my mind in the past couple years as much of that time I was recovering from multiple surgeries.

    Another great idea is to go to bookbub.com and sign up for their daily specials, I have a kindle fire that my family purchased me because I couldn’t comfortably hold a book anymore (sad but true) & I can set the kindle up & read only needing a finger to touch the screen and turn the page. Anyway, BookBub has daily specials on books of all genres & a lot of them are free!

    Thanks to BookBub & my Kindle I have a vast library of books (literally 50-75 of them) that I haven’t had to spend a single cent on. Add to that the hundreds of thousands of books available thru my Overdrive app and the vast library systems that are connected thru the app, I can read nust about anything. Check the app store connected to your device & read or listen to your hearts content!

  1473. angrymamamicrobiologist , as much as I would like to live in the UK or Canada I can assure you #703 is in the United States ( and seems to have been taken care of, thank you <3 ) . My listed shipping address is in Massachusetts.

    This has been a wonderful experiment, Jenny <3

  1474. My copy of Furiously Happy has arrived!
    I visited my mom in her nursing home tonight. It was really hard. Coming home to the package was like getting a hug. Thank you so so much whoever was kind enough to buy it for me! Thank you to all of you, for making this even happen. <3

  1476. I caught this post right as I was about to board a flight. The entire flight I kept smiling and thinking how JL makes me want to help others. I know books don’t solve all of the world’s problems but I sure hope they shine a little light. I just bought a bunch of books for the first ten people who still had books left on their lists. It makes me smile even more that it took me an easy three dozen clicks to find lists not fulfilled! Go, Jenny! Go, team!

  1477. Alright, Sandwich Fox Mulder. My internet crashed when I tried to leave my comment so I re-typed and was verifying it went thru. I saw you had just posted so your book is on its way now too!!! Yippee!

  1478. LOL. Marie from 9:10- you have a book coming too! Now I am logging out before my husband kills me! Hugs and happy books giving to all!

  1481. My daughter has recently been diagnosed with bi-polar with psychosis(or maybe psychotic) elements. She has also become very afraid of a lot of things, but likes to color and likes reading the bible. I just found a bible she can color in, and it would be really great if someone could send it to her. Sorry I’m late to the party, but things are kinda hectic right now. <3

  1485. I think my original post got lost during the great Amazon shut down of 2016 (#723)! I see some people posting that they can’t find a list with books left to purchase (see below)! I have been dealing with a fair amount of rejection lately, which I’m trying to keep in perspective, but it’s also triggering my anxiety. Actually, sending books to others has made me feel great! It’s taken my mind off myself, which is just what I need. I love reading your stories and seeing how vulnerable everyone is able to be here with total strangers. Y’all inspire me.

  1486. I know I missed Booksgiving Day, but I wanted to say how warming it is seeing a community of people reaching out like this to one another. Things have been rather unpleasant for a while and I don’t have funds currently to participate, but what I can do right now is send out lots of love and wish you all the best in everything you do. You are all really amazing, wonderful people. Thank you Jenny for starting the ripples of this grand wave.

    Hard week: leaking pipes, tripping breaker, surprise cold showers, in winter. On the positive side, I’m learning lots of DIY and how to use tools…and to stand on a rubber mat when working with electricity. Can think of many funner ways I could get fried but, eh, life’s a crap shoot. Wait…did I just beat anxiety with sarcasm? 👐💟

  1492. Out Of Time Mom #1440, I would love to send your munchkins a few little books, but there’s no shipping! =( Please go onto the full amazon website and edit the settings <3

  1493. #1440 Out of Time Mom, I wanted to get your books for you but your list doesn’t include your shipping address. I will check again tomorrow

  1495. Anonymous #1491, There’s no shipping on your wishlist! You’ll need to go on the full site and edit the settings before someone can send you a book. Hope it gets fixed soon <3

  1496. just received my care package from a stranger who sent their love with a book. Never felt such warmth and caring from a stranger before. Thank you, nameless ones and Ms. Lawson!

  1497. To Jade and to Kim P, thank you so much for the love that you’ve sent to me. My brain completely forgot all about my book request and when an amazon truck arrived today I was thinking “uh oh, what did I order?!” until I realized the packages were book shaped. I am beyond touched. Thank you for the kind messages included, I’ve taped them inside the front covers. I can’t explain how much your kindness means to me. Thank you so very much.

  1498. Just had one of those days where something good happened, but it meant an unexpected and somewhat pricey (to me at least) purchase, so I shouldn’t be buying any books right now… that said, I couldn’t resist the idea of paying it forward and getting a couple of people here books from their lists, so I’ll add mine in the event that someone else feels like doing the same.

  1499. Can I just say how amazing it is that so many of the links I click on are already empty because everyone here is so awesome?!
    Jenny, I think it’s a real credit to you and the joy and hope you bring to the lives of everyone who comes here that so many people would reach out and do something kind for complete strangers. I know that your blog and your books have provided me with much needed laughs and moments of “I’ve found my people!”

  1501. I bought a book for Linda B. I don’t know if she will see this. Enjoy! I had birthday money left and wanted to buy something for someone else with it. Jenny, this was the right thing at the perfect time! Thank you for all you do! This awesome/strange/amazing community ROCKS!

  1502. Not sure if it’s a good idea, but what if The Bloggess Community ever set a date and a place to meet, those who wish to meet each other? Reading those comments made me think of how people here can connect so well.. I know some might not feel comfortable with it, I understand, but I’m really amazed by the warmth of Jenny’s tribe haha Anyway, just and idea I thought cool to be shared

  1503. I was able to fill a couple people’s wishes, and I have been thrilled to see that mine also were filled! I needed the reminder that doing something for another person lifts you out of the hole (at least this time it definitely worked for me). This made my week. Thank you, Jenny.

  1506. Dakota Marin, your book is on the way! Estimated delivery: Feb. 12. With affection, Elise

  1507. Dakota Marin, your book is headed your way! Est. delivery is Feb. 12. Enjoy, my dear!

  1508. Lauren – comment 1494

    Check your mailbox this Sunday! Love to you fellow tribe member! (my daughter’s name is Lauren 😉

    Again – Jenny, props, props, props. Maybe we should do Booksgiving every Feb! <3
    Once my copy of FH comes back to me, I’m going to give it out again. It’s definitely doing the work it was meant to do.

  1509. Thank you Space Gandalf, I love surprises- so much, in fact, that there’s one on the way to you! xo

  1511. Thank you, thank you, thank you to whomever filled my wish! What a great feeling to know a stranger cares about me! I’ve paid it forward and will continue to do so knowing how great it can make a person feel. 🙂

    Jenny, as a scientist-in-training, this is the best experiment I’ve ever participated in! 😀

    they donate a portion to the charity of your choice. i choose Cpc Behavioral Healthcare Inc
    in Eatontown, NJ because the staff there is amazing and has changed my life, they keep me sane and safe. If you can, choose them or another local place you are passionate about. Just wanted to spread the word about more good that we can do without leaving the computer.

  1514. Hope I’m not too late to the party – but I guess it’s OK if I am, lol.

    I still haven’t had a chance to pick up Jenny’s new book – things always seem to come up! If anyone wouldn’t mind grabbing a copy for me, I would so appreciate it!

    I put the Kindle version on my list as that is the format I most often read.

    Hope someone can help, but no worries if everyone is tapped out! Thank you Jenny (and everyone) for doing this!!! xoxox

  1515. This is a great idea Jenny.

    I loved your book–and I’ve bought one for someone this time, so I thought I’d throw out my wished for book–not because HR is my happy place (by far), but because I am struggling to find the right words and I know they might be IN my wished-for book….

    I’m in performance review hell at the moment. As a newer manager, the pressure of helping my employees understand how they might be successful requires using the right words!! I’m so anxious about someone fixating on a particular turn of phrase that I’m finding it difficult to write performance feedback. I haven’t slept in two weeks, I swear!

    HR recommended this book…but I’m putting it on my wish list so it’s my personal copy to keep at home! The company won’t purchase a book this expensive for one person, so I really need my own.

    It’s too expensive for me to justify buying on my own…but I thought I’d put it out there for a chance that someone might be feeling generous.

    Check out this list: https://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/298VX1LQO3LDU/ref=cm_sw_r_ip_wl_o_3RlTwbPD6NSSH

  1520. Agreed Catherine B – this is so MUCH fun! I gave yesterday and had such a good “high” off of that, that I gave again today! So Catherin and Braxton both in Winnipeg, expect a Booksgiving gift on Wednesday! Hugs! 🙂

  1522. Oops, sorry Caroline in Winnipeg, not Catherine….got too excited and a bit ADHD had me reading someone else’s at the same time! 😉

  1523. Emma (Now at #1505 after address fix)
    Your books are on the way. Amazon says estimated delivery dates Feb 19th-24th. Suspect it’s because it is international from me to you. Which by the way I think is so very cool! Enjoy the books you deserve them. Happy Booksgiving! This has truly been a blast.

  1524. Sticklady1, I second your suggestion about Overdrive. I don’t have a car or money to order books online, so checking digital books out through the library is how I feed my reading addiction.

    Kylie, I don’t know if you’ll see this but I ordered the books on your list as soon as you corrected your link and it STILL says “shipping soon” and that it’ll be delivered on Wednesday, but it worries me that it still hasn’t shipped, so make sure everything is good on your end (updated shipping address, etc.) If there’s a problem, you can find me on Twitter @apriltara

    Cynthia K, the book you got for my daughter arrived last night! She dove right into it and started connecting with the writings right away. I think it’ll be a big help. And she’s using the gift receipt with the message from you as a bookmark and a reminder that she’s not the only one who lost a parent. Thank you!

  1525. Jenny, I just wanted to tell you that this Booksgiving has been a wonderful experience for me. Your books have touched so many people in my own life. Me, and my dear Sistermine. Recently I gifted them to my oldest son so he could have something to read on his kindle while caring for his newborn daughter(my first grandbaby). My sister has passed them on to my our Mother. Yesterday at almost the same time I got a text from my son telling me he was reading your book but struggling not to laugh so hard due to the sleeping baby he had on his chest at the time. A few seconds after reading that text I got a call from my mother telling me that she wasn’t speaking to my sister and I ever again(through tears of laughter, though). Apparently she decided to start reading your book at work and was laughing out loud in front of customers and co-workers. Too funny! We had a wonderful conversation about the parts she was already finding hysterical. (the bit about your dad having you and your sister look up movies(won’t say to much for those who haven’t had the delight yet)…..had her barely able to speak.) Great Fun!

    I am a parent of a special needs child. His bestfriend’s mother is having a very difficult time and I had already decided to get a copy of each of your books to drop off for her to enjoy. I think they will do her a world of good.

    Jenny, your books really are bringing light and joy to so many people in need of just this kind of mental medicine.

    Thank you for not only bringing these gifts of words to myself and the people in my own circle, but giving me the opportunity through this Happy Booksgiving event to share with others, literally around the world(as I just sent books to someone in Woy Woy, New South Wales from my living room in California…just how cool is that!! Very!)

    Happy reading everyone!

  1526. I am so sorry but someone had listed “Where The Wild Things Are” by Sendak on their list for their child. I bought it for them but I accidentally shipped it to myself. So if you are someone else sees this and really wants this book, please email me at jgargarello at gmail dot com. Thanks!

  1527. i’m such a nerd that i keep checking amazon to see if the books i got people have been delivered. i’m so excited for them to get them!! anyone else?

    i have to say I didn’t post a list bc i truly do not need anything but it does seem so cool to come home and find something that a stranger got you to know that you’re not alone out there.

  1528. I love this so much. I had not one, but TWO books show up at my door today. Thank you Kacie and Jo! My original post is #874 🙂 The best part is the books are for me to read now, and my daughter to read later (after I approve them 😉 ) so you got double the awesome out of this. I’m looking for someone else who still has books on their list to pay it forward again since I was lucky enough to receive two, but the only ones I’ve found don’t have shipping addresses. Anyone else still waiting for a book??

  1529. I put a list up here a few days ago and honestly forgot about it in the rush and busy of life, then today came home to not one but two packages containing wonderful new books. Thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart to those kind souls who gave me a touchstone to better times today. I may be crying a little (and getting weird looks from my 3 year old).

  1530. A lovely strangeling has gifted me a book. I received it this morning. Thank you so so much kimberly k. It really did put a smile on my face

  1531. Thank you, a stranger named Heather!! 🙂 I thought my package today was some groceries I ordered and was SUPER EXCITED to get a book!! 😀

  1533. hfinn212 #1527 – yes! packages delivered to recipients today! (please post your list too!)

  1534. I have received my books yesterday and there were tears. One of the books sent for Moo (3yo) was a book my partner had bought her but his ex had taken in the split. He was thrilled to have a copy for our house since it’s one of her favorites. Thank you so much for the love this post manifested. I not only got books out of Booksgiving, I made some new friends who “get” me immediately. Pretty fucking awesome.

  1535. Hfinn212 I keep doing the same thing! One of mine has just shipped to WA!

    Becky #1528 try scrolling towards the end of the first page of comments. Someone collected a list of lists that were still active, and other latecomers have posted their lists too. You might have better luck there. 🙂

    It’s been a bumpy few months, we’ve lost people, and various things have been up in the air for a while. Some of those things have recently been resolved, or at least given a set timeline, which is a lot easier for me to deal with than not knowing if/when something might occur… even when it’s a potentially good thing. Things are starting to even out and get a little less stressful in my life, so the idea of doing something that adds a little needed joy and love to other people is awesome. My family loves Random Acts of Kindness, so this Booksgiving thing is great! I really think we should do it a couple of times a year!

  1537. So I have had the fortune to be able to gift some books and have been fortunate to be gifted some books in return. Now I would like to help my daughter who is taking Psychology in University and has 2 books on her “to read” list that she has yet to buy. Last year they read Jenny’s first book..”Let’s Pretend this Never Happened.” We love her psychology professor!

  1538. Tina D. from Charlottesville, VA – thank you SO much for purchasing a book for me (I was comment #43) The Nightingale has been on my list forever to read. I’m going to send you a proper thank you card, but just in case you read the comments, please know how grateful I am for your kindness. Thank you so much!

  1539. Second attempt calling my fellow UK Bloggess-followers…
    Anonymous/Emma Lloyd, #287
    Tristan/Jadeana Alteryns, #429

    I’ve tried to buy you both the book but your addresses don’t appear to be populating in your wishlists. Please could you double check them for me?
    (Any more UK peeps who have been missed?)

    Thanks ever so – sending love and light
    Beth xx

  1540. You rock, kind stranger (#872). You have made my Friday! Here’s to things turning up =)

  1543. I was comment #207, and then, unbeknownst to me, my friend went in at #1377 to let folks know my list was still not filled. I just now went to add Jenny’s other book to my list, because I figured if I wasn’t going to be chosen (a central theme! – to lots of us!), then I might as well not get two books, instead of just not getting one. I know this doesn’t make sense, but . . . welcome to my life. As I added Jenny’s first book, the info came up that someone has gifted me her second book, although it still shows on the list? I am confused, but I am once again hopeful, as I’m not gonna’ lie, I was starting to feel even more rejection. I hope this all works out for all of us, and I will pay this forward as I am able. Thanks Jenny, and possible mystery gifting person –

  1544. Thank you so much to whomever purchased my books! I got two in the mail yesterday (one for my daughter with ADHD). I was able to “pay it forward” today…payday. So, enjoy! This was so fun and uplifting!

  1545. I really really really don’t need anything but I thought it was fun to make a list anyway. It’s been a crappy year so far but I feel like I’m back on track (knock wood) and buying other people books and reading this thread for the past few days is a big part of it (sorry I’ve posted so much! Eek!)

  1546. Hello! I already posted my link earlier(#487), but I didn’t mention anything about myself. I told my therapist about this and she suggested that I should talk a little bit about my struggles.

    For the past 9 years I’ve been struggling with depression and anxiety. I had no support until last year when I started college and found the help that I needed. According to my therapist, I’ve improved a lot in the past few months. I finally opened up about my depression. I even stood up for myself and quit my job. My managers and coworkers have been treating me really unfairly for the past six years.

    Jenny, I also started my own blog because of your book, “Furiously Happy.” I talk a lot about my life on the blog and it has been helping me open up more to new people.

    Reading and writing has made a big impact in my life. Thank you so much Jenny for everything you are doing! I wish I could help out with Booksgiving, but I’m actually jobless at the moment.

  1547. Thank you thank you to whomever sent me The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. My life is in a bit of shambles right now, and I feel like this is a great step in the right direction. xx

  1548. I’m always excited when amazon tells me a package is out for delivey. Today it will be showing up on someone’s doorstep just shy of 1000 miles away and I am more excited then ever. She picked Stanger in a Strange Land. I book I love and own. Tonight I’m going to pick it up and read it knowing someone else is reading it too.
    Jenny you rock in ways you will never know.

  1549. Thank you to all of you wonderful strangelings that bought me books and highlighted my days. You beautiful, wonderful people have made so many people’s days and weeks know that I love you all and thank you for your generosity and thoughts.

  1550. Julie Olson, Amazon just told me your daughter’s book was delivered. I hope she enjoys!

  1551. My copy was delivered to my office today! So now I’m sitting at my desk, crying happy tears because this? Exactly what I needed this week. It might not seem like much to some, but to me it means someone out there cared enough to send a perfect stranger a gift when they needed it most. Thank you, Megan…whoever you are. I promise to spread the happiness when I find it.

  1558. Angiem23 you have one on the way!! Should be there Sunday! Have to love Amazon Prime!

  1559. Brandee (#1541) Your book is heading your way!

    Jenny – Thank you again for doing this! I’ve sent books all over the US and one to Australia all from my desk in California. I know it’s just the internet, but it seems like magic.

  1562. Thank you so much Suzanne for your gift it truly will help 🙂 It renewed my faith in humanity during a week were I thought there was none. You are amazing. Love, Meg #1061

  1563. Thank you kindly to the w.h.b. (wonderful human being -hasn’t caught on yet, but i’m sure it will) who bought my 15-month-old Calvin a book -arriving tomorrow, can’t wait to read it to him!

  1564. Thank you so much to whomever sent me a book, I’m having a bit of a pity party and it was just lovely to see it had disappeared from my wish list. I’m just an average girl surviving the chaos that is my day to day the best I can, and my faith in humanity is restored by such a lovely act.
    May good karma follow you wherever you go.
    xx

  1565. For those of you looking for last nights list of lists that are/were still active, it’s by Sherri #1309 and there are several lists posted after that that are still active as well.
    Happy Booksgiving!

  1567. SuzyBee, you are so welcome! My daughters love reading, too! 🙂

    Elizabeth (#1176) watch your email box!

  1570. anon 1568- your daughter has two books coming her way! everyone should have some john green! she should get them on sunday 🙂

  1571. I haven’t got a copy of the book yet, but it’s on my bucket list of ‘must read’s. However I would really like one of those kittens, I’m in bed with the flu and I think a kitten is the only thing that will help. Well maybe chocolate as well ?

  1572. Anon @1568 – Another two books are on their way to your daughter! One from the list and one of my personal favorites for uplifting hilarity. Enjoy!! A Mom in CA

  1573. Anon @1569 – With hope that you find some light and humor with these wonderful books. All best, A Mom in CA

  1574. Annoymous 1523 – I am so very touched, thank you very much. It is just so wonderful and heart warming to know there are people like you, Jenny and everyone else here out in the world. I wish you, and everyone here happy days 🙂

  1575. Another Sue 1543 – If you selected the option to keep the gift a surprise, Amazon won’t send you a message to say it has been ordered – they do keep it a surprise! However, if you try to add the book to a cart it gives you a warning. If someone else looks at your list, the book does not appear. (I hope that made sense to you!)

  1576. Post 1568 – your books are on the way. 🙂 It said they might even arrive Sunday! Hugs to you and your daughter.

  1578. That moment as a single mom when you are exhausted after picking up all 4 kids from school only to find a book in the mail from a complete stranger. Nothing but tears and gratitude. The amount of kindness on here is amazing and uplifting. Much love to all the givers.

  1581. Yikes! I couldn’t figure out how to add my address from my mobile phone. All fixed! Thank you so much for considering helping out my kiddos. Jenny, you’re amazing! I can always have my spirit recharged from you and the amazing people on your site. Thank you!

  1582. I would have loved to have been part of this when you posted it on Feb 2. (my birthday) But I was in jury duty. When I told the court clerk it was my birthday she handed me a jury badge and said, “happy birthday”. Milk of human kindness, not. But am so happy to see what was going on on your blog that day. Wonderful idea!

  1585. Thank you, thank you, thank you to Anne! I am crying, good tears right now. It’s so very powerful to get a book as a gift from a stranger.

  1587. Thank you Sara F wherever you may be! My book showed up in the mail today and totally made my day!

  1588. I’m in tears witnessing such kindness and generosity. Thank you so to the people who granted my wishes. I’m trying so hard to find wishlists that aren’t empty! Booksgiving is the best!

  1591. Jennifer, thank you so much for the book. It means more than you could know! As soon as I can, I will pay it forward. .. thank you.

  1592. Out of Time Mom, you have a book on the way, hopefully arriving Sunday. Theresa Saylor, Amazon says your book was delivered today.

  1597. Anon #1555 – I think maybe your list isn’t public? Every time I click on the link it takes me to my own personal list.

  1599. Thank you SO VERY MUCH to my sender. job hunting is one of the 7 levels of hell (I’m pretty sure, anyway!) and I’m looking forward to poking my nose into my books when I need to get out of my own head and maybe have a laugh or two to shake off some stress.

    This whole experiment–and seeing how many people stepped up for others, had kind and encouraging words, and just the generosity of a big community of total strangers–you’ve renewed my faith in the awesomeness of humanity.

    Thank you, Jenny, for yet another fantastic thing you’ve given us. <3 I will continue paying it forward as best I can. <3

  1601. I would love to send a signed copy to someone since that would make it even more valuable in the future (though it’s priceless now). Any way to make that possible? I got to meet you in Wichita (moose hat) and my circumstances have changed dramatically for the worse physically and mentally (having THOSE thoughts) so I want to be selfish and feel good by doing good. Love you for being your

  1602. Nikki Gilbertson #1583, you have some goodies coming your way. Much love. Carrie

  1605. I couldn’t decide on a book for the list, so I put four down in the hopes someone would put me out of my indecision-inspired misery. Instead, three strangers bought the books and I received three packages (4 books total) from three amazing women whom I will never meet. My heart is so full right now… I’m humbled by this embarrassment of riches. Thank G-d for Jenny Lawson, furiously happy racoons and foxen, and all of the people on this site! Is there a kick-ass name for Jenny’s fans? I will brainstorm the shit out of this. Probably obsessively. sigh

  1607. Thank you, book angels, for delivering a little bit of joy to my door step.I love that so many people were eager to help spread kindness to others.

    Thank you for being awesome, Jenny.

  1609. I’m late to the party, but if anyone is still participating, I could use a book pretty hard.

    A Tree Grows in Brooklyn is one of my childhood stories. My sister and I shared a hardcover edition that was both A Tree Grows in Brooklyn and Maggie Now, but that first half was by far the most read. We were bookish, second generation Americans, from a low-income family, so it’s no wonder that Francie Nolan spoke to us. My family is now scattered, and it’s a struggle to make sure the older generations are safe and cared for when those of us still living are few, and thousands of miles apart. I could really use a trip with my childhood friend again.

    http://smile.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1E16K6Y8QQFBO/ref=cm_wl_huc_view

  1610. This is exactly what I needed today. My eyes are still burning from a super humiliating crying-at-work incident today, so I just sent off 3 books to hopefully make a few peoples’ days. Off to pick through the comments for any more unfulfilled lists. 🙂

  1611. Okay, I’ll bite. I listened to Furiously Happy via an Audible gift subscription recently and it was nothing short of life changing. I have told everyone I know about this book and several of my coworkers have purchased it on their Kindle. I am dying to own a hard copy that I can dog ear and highlight and make my own personal Bible. However, working for a non-profit agency (I help low income individuals and dislocated workers find jobs) doesn’t leave a lot of excess money for the extras. I would be forever thankful to add this book to my library!
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=MT4P9UMDM7LU&type=wishlist

  1612. To the wonderful women that have purchased books for me I would like you to know that the sweet sentiments that were sent along with my book are now glued to the front cover of each book so I have a reminder of the wonderful generosity, support and love of my fellow Bloggess fans.

  1615. I’m late to this, but should there still be a generous giver out there, I’ll give this a shot.

    I could really use some new reading material right now, as I’m home on sick leave, have been for the last 3 weeks and won’t get back to work for at least another 3-4 weeks 🙁
    On top of that I’m on financial aid and have been using a good deal of that on medicin and I have several physiotherapy apointments ahead, also costing me a good deal.
    I LOVE books, but right now buying any myself is a no-option.

    I have listed a handful of books, including Jenny’s. Didn’t want to ask for more, if any actually get picked, as there’s so many others who’ll hopefully get a wish picked. I have listed the eBook version of each book, because I live in Denmark and shipping here is pretty expensive. SHOULD you be in a paperback mood, my package must not be over the value of $11.50 ($55 if it’s specifically marked as a Gift) + shipment. This is important, because my country has a very strict custom rule. Everything above that and I,ll end up with a custom and shipment claim waaay above the value of the book itself.

    Thank you to any who might decide to gift me, and thank you to Jenny for doing this.

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/GOIB24Z23VFS/ref=cm_wl_list_o_1?

  1617. So I made a wish list on Amazon. It didn’t ask me for my address. Is that because I’m already a customer? This technology stuff turns me into an enraged toddler: “I want it to work NOOOWWW!”
    Any thoughts, o Bloggess?
    Also, this is a kind and brilliant idea!

  1620. Thank you, thank you, thank you Abigail and Jessica. Your thoughtfulness and generosity mean so much to me!!! I got the books yesterday after a particularly bad day. It instantly changed my day!

  1621. Hi. I never post stuff like this but I’m going through the hardest year of my entire life right now and I could use a friend. My fiance isn’t sure he wants to get married anymore because my depression is SO bad, and I’ve been in electroshock therapy for the last ~4 weeks. I’m hoping against hope that this will finally cure me, or at least clear away the darkness long enough so I can see a little light. Anyway, it would really help to know that there are people out there thinking of me. Thanks. http://amzn.com/w/4GEUQ1RKUIES

  1622. Thank you to the people who sent me a book. Means so much. Today was a hard day, started off good then ended with tears and a bad panic attack. Some days I don’t think I’m strong enough to fight the depression and dark thoughts. I’m now in bed in the dark about to send a few books. Below I’m sharing my list in case anyone is in need of self help books. These are ones that have been recommended to me so maybe they will help someone else as well
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1DEERG92K3OLE/ref=topnav_lists_1

  1623. Rachel #1609 you should have your kindle book!! I hope you enjoy the book it is one of my favorites

  1627. I don’t even understand that not even an hour after a post, I have three new books coming my way. I had such a physically horrible day, and I’m crying furiously happy tears for the first time in a while. THANK YOU, beautiful strangers, and THANK YOU Jenny for this truly beautiful experiment!! I assure you if there are new posters by the time I’m out of this flare and back to work, I will pay this forward!

  1628. I’m the Anonymous from reply #46 – THANK YOU so much to the people who sent me both of Jenny’s books! Booksgiving is the Best.Thing.Ever. Next time, when I’m in a better place, I will definitely pay it forward!! You all ROCK! 😀

  1630. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you, Jonathon!!! I am so Furiously Happy to have received my book. The last few months have been tough and this was such a burst of sunshine! Next time, I’ll pay it forward to someone else 🙂

  1631. Comments 1625 Deb Pascoe, 1626 treehugginhippiechic …you didn’t set up your address properly so I cannot send the book to you. Go back to Amazon and fix it so you can get your book!

  1632. Oh my Cat! I really didn’t expect anything to actually come of this, but today I went to get the mail and I had a bunch of packages!! The timing was perfect, too! I really can’t say “thank you” enough, but… THANK YOU!!! I edited my wishlist to remove what I’ve received from the amazingly generous people here… wow. I am overwhelmed, seriously. (Hilarious that this happens now, when I’m trying to figure out how to feel emotions instead of bury them… overwhelmed is definitely the word!)

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! 😀

  1633. Forgot to post about myself.I too suffer from anxiety disorder with panic attacks, ocd, and ptsd. I come from a dysfunctional family that doesn’t recognize such illnesses so it’s wonderful to find Jenny’s books and know that others are making it through and to take it day by day. This booksgiving Is a fabulous idea and I hope those receiving books are feeling the love and comfort that the giver is sending.

  1634. Those of you who have not heard anything PLEASE make sure you have your address set up at Amazon. I have attempted to send books to 5 different people and I can’t because your address isn’t set up properly for your wish list.

  1636. Thank you so much! The book came yesterday. My daughter grabbed it out of my hands when I showed her. Mother-daughter reading, laughing, crying weekend coming up. Thank you again, with all my heart! (Comment 431)

  1637. I wanted to repost my original post because my first link didn’t have any shipping information on it and I’ve tried to go in and put the shipping information on and it doesn’t seem to save. Here’s my original post:

    “I think I’ve done this correctly (turns out I didn’t!!) to create my shopping wish list. Here’s the link: Books I need right now to make me furiously happy Link: https://amzn.com/w/3A2RBASHBQTTK
    It’s on my mom’s amazon account, so it probably says “Linda Smith”, but I put in my information for “Lorin Smith”. Sometimes I’m technically challenged (apparently this time I WAS!) and sometimes I’m not. Reading your blog and your first book always makes me happy. A box of kittens would make me happy too, but they don’t ship well. :)”

    But, here’s my new link for my wishlist: http://amzn.com/w/2UO9DH9N2CRWO. I took my wishlist off my mom’s amazon account, created my own amazon account and created my own book wishlist. See? I told you I was sometimes technically challenged! 🙂

    If anyone has tried to be an angel and bless me with a book from my list and hasn’t been able to, I sincerely apologize and hope that you won’t give up on my technically challenged self! I love you Jenny and your blog and your first book. Whenever I’m feeling down and depressed, I love to come to your blog and read past articles that make me laugh until I’m crying. My absolute favorite posts are any involving Beyonce. KKMF!!

  1638. Sometimes a book really does make all the difference. I like to escape in YA books. I don’t expect anything to come from me posting, I know how busy you are, I just want to let you know that reading both your books (and blog) made such a difference in my life. It’s SUCH a relief to know that I’m not along, and I’m not the only crazy person out there. I have nothing but the utmost respect for you, and I think that what you’re doing is amazing. Thank you for being an inspiration. 🙂

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/15W8CW5S0N1BO/ref=cm_wl_huc_view

  1639. ladysupermarket, you need to add your shipping address – amazon is trying to send to me instead of you.

  1640. OMG! I’m overwhelmed with people’s generosity! Thank you so very much, Lesley, Geoff, Kim G., and the anonymous person who gave me Jenny’s “Furiously Happy!” I’m in reading heaven. 💖💖💖💖😍😍😍😍

  1642. DANG! Competition to be nice to others sure is steep! I was trying to purchase the text books for Angie 1537’s daughter and someone out paced me in niceness. I am having a difficult time finding books to be sent. So I am going to purchase Jenny’s books for my friend. She spent much of her life over-sedated and in constant pain until a wonderful doctor finally diagnosed her with fibromyalsia, got her off the heavy duty meds, started appropriate treatment and just gave her a new lease on life. My friend is currently back in college at 50 to become a drug counselor. She has no extra money for books and has asked to borrow these on her next school break. I think I shall celebrate Booksgiving by sending Jenny’s books to her if that is OK with ya’ll.

  1643. I sent Daring Greatly to Levi in CA (somewhere in the 100s or 200s…couldn’t find your comment just now) but Amazon said they couldn’t deliver it… 🙁

  1644. Okay as of now, these lists still have active items on them. I went through Sherri’s post #1309 and on, removing the empty lists, then adding new ones.

    That takes us up to and including post #1643 I think I need to go sit in a dark room away from any screens now… yikes!
    Mad props to Sherri for compiling the original list!
    Happy Booksgiving everyone!

  1645. Sharon from Texas – #1575 – thank you for taking the time to explain that to me. This technology stuff confuses me on a good day, and between my challenges, and my providers’ challenges, well, let’s just say there is a shortage of good internet days. I changed the setting so it now looks like someone(s) have gifted me both of Jenny’s books. I have lusted after them both, but simply could not justify the expense in my current situation. Was thinking I would just have to wait out my local library. I am giving a lot of books away from my personal collection, but I have a feeling that Jenny’s books will need to stay close. Thanks again, and thanks to all those gifting books to others !!!!!

  1646. treehugginghippiechi, I don’t see an address to ship to, did you put a shipping address?

  1648. even tho things are tough for me at this time, the generosity flowing in these comments is addicting! I received Jenny’s ebook (thank you again!) On day one of Booksgiving & I said I was going to pay it forward when I get back on my feet, but I cant wait, so I’m going to try and sell some items on eBay just so I can buy someone a book!!

  1650. I have updated my list some. I asked for some suggestions from some friends for books to help me through my relapse in my depression. If you have any suggestions too, I’d love to hear them. I’m trying really hard to fight back, but most days lately, I’ve been reduced into anxiety attacks and lapses of despair. It’s been a few years since I was really this bad. I figured if I could share this anywhere, it’s here.

  1653. Hello lovely fellow Jenny fans. I may be late to the game here but I figured it’s worth a shot. I have been sitting in bed all day studying for a state board test that I have to take after going to a school where the teacher hated me and didn’t bother to teach me anything. I went to become an esthetician to help people with their skin problems, to help people feel good! I’ve left that school having been bullied by the teacher and drained and with worse anxiety than when I started and questioning if this is even what I want to do anymore. I’m almost thirty years old and feeling so far behind in life. I’ve added Jenny’s book to my list along with Fk it therapy because I think I need a little help learning how to say Fk it! I have the signed book plate for Jenny’s book but haven’t had the funds to buy it! Looking forward to having a home for her pretty gold pen signed bookplate 🙂 http://amzn.com/w/JNAZYVCDCNL0

  1655. Hi all! This is my sneaky wishlist. I suffer from a chronic illness, I won’t get into details because this isn’t for me. This is for my amazing boyfriend. My patient selfless caretaker who I would be lost without. I broke into his amazon account and made him a wishlist. Shhh, don’t tell. I’m going to buy someone a book on his behalf and I hope someone sends one his way. He really deserves it.
    Link: http://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/CZF0PEHDEYNU

  1658. (Oh goodness, I hope that didn’t sound wrong. I’m possibly having a panic attack by my last post. I hope you know it isn’t me being needy and wanting books or something, when in reality I’d like your suggestions for happy books. Yeah, I’m taking away my computer until I can stop typing nonsense like this so I can’t make myself sound stupider.)

  1659. Curiouser & Curiouser #1642…Thank you so much for trying! Buying books for your friend is exactly what this experiment is all about! And good on your friend for going back to college late in life, I am in awe of them! And thank you to whoever is willing to help out my daughter!

  1661. I love you guys. I just bought more 10 books off lists because it makes my day brighter. I lost track of the comment numbers though because I’m foggy-headed tonight. Also, one was one I used to read to Hailey and it made me all sniffly because I’d forgotten about how much she loved it. You people are full of magic. ~ Jenny)

  1663. Oh and Sheri #1309 I just realized that your wishlist links to the generic wishlist – whomever is looking at it will see their own list. Please repost your list so others can see it!

  1664. I had a really crappy day at work, but I came home to read this thread. Now I’m crying and happy, all at the same time. Someone is getting a book. I didn’t note the #. Love to all of you out there!

  1667. I hope it’s not too late to place my Booksgiving wish. I’ve struggled with major depression and anxiety since I was 12 yo. My anxiety has been through the roof since a head injury over a year ago. The past 3 weeks have been just awful awful awful deep dark depression. It’s been so bad that I haven’t been able to work at all, and wasn’t working a whole lot in the last year. I’ve felt so alone in the dark depression it would be wonderful to read a book that would help me feel not alone in my craziness. I love the Bloggess because she helps me feel like more “crazy” is really just a different type of “normal.” Not always a fun “normal”…but a survive-able “normal.” Comming soon…hopefully…an extra blog for those darkcrackers.com moments. At least for mine dark crackers moments. If only they were dark chocolate moments instead…sigh…dang it! Stop rambling and ranting, girl! “Over and out”

  1670. Oh man this was fun! Caroline (1594), Heather (1521) and Lisa S (1430) I hope you ladies and your kids enjoy the books!!!

  1671. JB in Ontario- yay! Glad you added your shipping address! Good books are on the way! I got you the hardcover of The book with No Pictures- because paperback wasn’t available- so you may want to take that one off your list 😉 enjoy!

  1672. Cle_Jen – thank you so much!!! That’s so nice of you 🙂 🙂 -Lauren (but not your daughter Lauren) 🙂

  1673. I am struggling to be a mom. A good mom, who doesn’t get angry at her kid and yell or walk away. A mom who doesn’t hit or spank. A mom who is not frustrated by all the demands and wants and emotions of a toddler. A mom who doesn’t cause the damage that my parents did.

    Really, I just need to know that it gets better, that it will work out. Right now I wonder if I can even do this.

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=3I5PLVLLKZJVP&type=wishlist

  1674. I think this is a wonderful idea. Normally, I would be buying books for people, but I have had a really hard time lately. I recently lost my job, my car broke down last week and I had a water pipe leak all over my back porch. Money is tight and I can’t be as generous as I would like, but would surely pay it forward when I am able to in the future.
    I own both of Jenny’s books already, so I added a new book that I discovered today. It deals with alcoholism, of which I suffer. I am in recovery, having been to two inpatient rehab centers in the last three years. In the description of the book, the author “discovers the person she buried, as well as the confidence, intimacy, and creativity she once believed came only from a bottle.” That really resonates with me. Thanks in advance if anyone gifts this book to me and I hope I got the link correct!

  1675. I’m having a “hard to see the forest for the trees” moment. I can’t tell what I’ve already read, and whose lists I’ve viewed, but I am getting choked up reading these posts. It is really beautiful to see people helping one another. And that I am not alone coming back to to this because it feels special. I don’t have a lot of major strife in my life (unless you count how much I am fretting about getting my first mammogram next week for a weird lump, and how much I’m spinning my wheels). I feel pretty good today. Each post I read reminds me of the times I have felt sad or alone, or lost, or struggled with a very long year. I hope for those coming back here again and again feel comfort. I wish I had a million dollar gift card to buy ALL of your books.

  1676. @Anonymous #1447 In my book you are no longer anonymous….You are My book fairy. Thank you so much. Made my week so much better. Love ya!

    Love you too, Jenny for thinking this up…..You are the cat’s pajamas.

  1679. Amy Zaslavsky (1593). A book is heading your way! One of my absolute favorites.
    -Serine

  1680. This is such a wonderful confirmation that humans can still be decent. It took awhile to find people with books still on their lists! Thanks to all the lovely people out there giving just for the sake of it. S

  1681. I’m one of the long-time readers, and seldom commenters. About a week ago, I finished Furiously Happy. This book was a revelation at a time where my depression was at it’s highest. It was also very hard to read some of my raw feelings.

    I’ve had so many changes in the past 2 years, including moving to Australia and a diagnosis of CFS. It was hard to leave my friends, family (and books) behind, but it was also worth it. Life can be so confusing. I’m trying to learn what you spoke of most–just be ok with being you. Adapt to what you need. So, thank you for those words. Thank you for being unabashedly you.

    If anyone is willing to send a book my way, it’d brighten my day (and week), but I also understand that the main time of giving is over. Here’s my link: https://amzn.com/w/1QWUAE3XY41HP

    P.S. I’d be willing to chip in to get you to Australia again. I think you and Rosie Waterland would somehow get along great.

  1682. I was having the crappiest craptastic day n crapistory at work this morn. I was actually crying at work which I never ever do, and not from happiness… I was just thinking god why are people so awful? Then bam my husband is calling me 10 mins later to tell me I had a package. Lo and behold it was Jenny’s let’s pretend this never happened. So I started in on it when I got home just trying to keep my mind off maybe quitting my job n the rush to find a new one when Jenny’s words finally was reaching through the fog n my head and I was laughing before I knew it. Thank you Typpi u literally made my day today! And thank you jenny for being you!

  1683. Marie K. (comment 1678) – “Binge” is on its way, estimated delivery February 12th 🙂

  1685. I know I’m late to the party, but on the off chance that someone is still paying attention — I’m having a harder than normal winter with my depression + seasonal affective disorder and to make matters worse, I can’t enjoy my favorite hobby (reading) because nothing keeps my interest. Maybe Furiously Happy is just what I need. Even if I don’t get a copy, thank you for doing this because I know I’m not the only one in this boat and it’s great to know I’m surrounded by such generous and caring fellow passengers.

    https://amzn.com/w/1J6I6N8LFDA9G

  1686. Lisa S. (comment 1682) – expect some books featuring the coolest cat ever (Pete) around February 12th 🙂

  1687. I had a long day at work today, and a therapy session, and when I finally got home I fell into bed and slept for hours. I finally woke up at around 7:30, went to take out the trash I’ve been neglecting…and there was a package from Amazon at my doorstep. It made my entire day better to open the package and see the little gift note and the book. My thanks to Laura for her kindness!!

  1688. Sarahbel #1685, you should have a package next Tuesday! I’m piggybacking on my girlfriend’s Amazon account since she has Prime and 2-day shipping.

  1689. Jeanie Tortoisefly #1644 & #1663
    You are an angel!!!!! I was just contemplating doing another round-up and wincing at the thought. Thank you for saving my poor little head. The eye crossing is a real thing haha, That’s why my link was posted incorrectly. Someone already pointed it out and sent me FH when it was fixed so I’m all good. Thank you for looking out for me though! <3

  1690. Thanks to those of you letting us know that we don’t have our shipping info in Amazon correctly. I have added my address again hoping that now it shows up that this can be sent. My daughter has recently been diagnosed with bi-polar with psychosis(or maybe psychotic) elements. She has also become very afraid of a lot of things, but likes to color and likes reading the bible. I just found a bible she can color in, and it would be really great if someone could send it to her. It is a preorder, but would get to her sometime in March. Sorry I’m late to the party, but things are kinda hectic right now. <3
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=3DCKFR12G8BWR&type=wishlist

  1692. I can’t find my link. My wish list is DEBRA DISNEY wishlist booksgiving on Amazon & I only wished for Jenny’s books. I am stuck at home, sick AGAIN ,Just wishing for her books to read. Thank you!! 😊

  1694. I’ve lost track of my comment, but my deepest thank you to three amazing givers who decided to brighten my sick leave with new books.
    I have this bookmarked, and as soon as possible, I’ll be coming back one day to pay it forward, if I can find someone with an unclaimed book.

  1696. Anon 1695, please link a shipping address – tried to send you a book and you don’t have one linked.

  1701. My comment seem to have drowned in the flood of amazing commenters and generous givers, and difficult to find, so I hope it’s okay that I post my wish list again, also since I have an edit to it.
    I hope some sweet and generous people is still around and willing to gift me with some entertainment while I have to stay home on sick leave for another 3-4 weeks (have already been on sick leave for weeks, I’m pretty bored by now, and my money is small due to medical expenses).

    Here’s the wish list in ebook version https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/GOIB24Z23VFS/ref=cm_wl_list_o_1? (this is in dollars)
    Here’s the same list as paperbacks http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/registry/wishlist/3S2KQMEY5SGC4/ref=cm_wl_list_o_0?
    Note that the paperbacks are in UK £, because I would need to get them from UK to prevent customs and fees when delivered to my country.

    Thank you in advance to anyone who might be so nice to take me in consideration.

  1702. Kim G #1700
    Sorry luv! It only works on Amazon. Can’t send it to you from B&N, they don’t have wishlist shipping addresses =( Jenny added a bunch of pictures and instructions to her post to walk you through creating a wishlist on Amazon if you want to take a look and see if it helps <3

  1703. I know I am probably too late getting in on this, but my desire and my pride have been entangled in an icky argument over whether or not to ask for a book. In the end, I decided to go ahead and ask. I already have Furiously Happy as I knew it was coming out and saved up for it. The book I put on my list is from the In Death series because Eve Dallas is my absolute favorite character to get lost in for a little while. Whenever I’m overwhelmed with all the crap that life has thrown at me and I find myself spending all my time in bed with the covers pulled up over my head like I have been lately, it helps sometimes to just get lost in a make believe world where the good guys always win. I can get out of my own head for a while and come back better for it. Anyway, if I’m not too late, here’s a link to my wish list. https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=T95V03TS3DII&type=wishlist
    And Jenny, you’re my hero! For reals, tho!

  1704. meghquinn #1681 A book is on its way! It should arrive between Feb 19-24, enjoy it 🙂

  1705. Today was a horrible day, one of those days I wished I hadn’t forced myself to get out of bed. But I came home and saw a package waiting, a book I’ve wanted for years inside. I’m now crying tears of joy over the selflessness some kind soul bestowed upon me. You made my day end on an incredible high note, thank you for the light.

  1706. Cassandra S – It’s never too late to ask for help. Enjoy your book – you should have it on Monday.

  1707. My book came and it was such a wonderful surprise. It came after an awful work day, and a night spent having nightmares about our 16 year old dog, who we just had to put down. I bought abook for someone else, but now I’m off to buy another. Thanks for an epic reason to smile.

  1709. @Treehugginhippychic- your mailing address is set to global instead of US. Is that accurate?

  1710. I’m ready to send books out but the last 25 people or so listed don’t have their shipping address attached properly to their wish list! Follow the directions up top and let me know! I want to share the love of this grand book to anyone who needs it. The Bloggess and all of you blessed me two Christmases ago and it’s my turn!

  1713. Nevermind, it didn’t. Maybe next time. Thanks to all for trying to help. I must be in over my head.

  1714. Thank you to Tiffany Jones for my copy of “Furiously Happy” – what a great surprise to find waiting for me after a long work week! I can’t wait to dive into it! Happy Booksgiving!

  1716. Thank you so much, Serine!! It really means the world to me! Good luck on your mammogram! I’ll be thinking of you and sending positive vibes your way!

  1717. Thank you to the wonderful person that bought my youngest dd the sketchbook. She’s going to love it! If anybody is able, I’d so appreciate one of the two cookbooks I have in my list for myself. I haven’t been feeling well and I know a major part of it is the weight I’ve gained (and lost, and regained in an unhealthy cycle) and eating the wrong way for my body. Change is hard. 🙁

  1718. I work at an Inpatient Hospital for those who are thinking about suicide…We have a small “library” of books. I don’t get paid enough to buy Jenny’s books so I am wondering if anyone would be willing to buy them so I can add them to our library? As you all know, her books are exactly what someone needs to read when all they see is dark…here’s the link (I hope):

  1719. Binge-reading these posts three times a day has made me smile so much this week that my face actually hurts (apparently a lot of us don’t use those muscles too often!)

    I managed to gift quite a few books.. I won’t say how many because my family might be reading this and I don’t want to get in trouble 😉 (also I have a feeling I’m not done yet!)

    And a million thank yous to the amazing woman who got me a book too. My hand actually shook and my eyes filled with tears when I noticed it was gone from my list. I didn’t expect to have that reaction. I was excited to find your lists empty <3

    And a HUGE thank you and MASSIVE (is it okay if I hug you?) HUGS (if you said yes) to the women sifting through the comments to make those long lists, how do you even..?

    And thank you to everyone letting people know they’re not being ignored but just haven’t set up their list right. I’d guess about 30 of the links I tried wouldn’t let me give the person a book. LET ME GIVE YOU A BOOK! lol

    Everyone, make sure you’re reading Jenny’s entire blogpost because she shows you exactly how to set up your wishlist!

    https://www.amazon.ca/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=48L0QOG19V5Z&type=wishlist

  1721. @lisafab #1718 Please never give up on any of those people. Your books are on their way. Thank you Jenny for allowing us this opportunity to remember that we are not alone. I know I’m late joining, but this has been a difficult week for me.

    DRM

  1722. Dear fellow strangelings,

    I’m a university student and even though I don’t live in a country where that means I’m also dead-broke, books are still a luxury to me. So, here’s my list:
    http://www.amazon.de/registry/wishlist/2GYP4W3GUAY3E
    And for those looking for inspiration in the wish lists: Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson made me tear up significantly and is just a generally very well-written book.

    Thank you, you lovely happiness machines! The good you do for others is incredible!

  1723. I woke up this morning to my mom holding four packages for me and I knew instantly it was from you guys. I cried with such happiness and hugged the books to me for a while. Thank you so much for your kindness. I never expected even one book. I only asked because I desperately wanted a copy of Furiously Happy because it had helped me so much the first few weeks that my depression came back, but it had been a library book. I could never express how thankful I am to you all. You’ve shown me what kindness is there and that people care, even if I’ve never even met you. Yes, I’m still tearing up.

  1724. Karen M, #1697, one of your books should arrive on Wed. Thank you for the honor of helping as I have been in the past. Nell

  1725. I know this is too late but giving it a shot anyway. I came across the book title. Decided I needed (desperately) to read it. Couldn’t afford it. Reserved it at the library. 32nd on the list. Crap! (Not literally.) *** Had to put down four cats within the last nine months.*** Yes they were all seniors, and most had conditions requiring meds for most of their life, but it still came as a crushing blow. FOUR times. In NINE months. Jenny’s book arrived for me (library!) about a week after my last kitty was put down. And through all my darkness (and there was LOTS) I felt a light. That light grew to crack my blackened heart. I devoured (not literally) tyhe book in just two days! I fell better now. Like I’m on the cusp of something good. Thank you Jenny for role-modelling the way i want to be. To (eventually) see the humour in the darkness. THANK YOU!!

    If anyone is interested, here’s my list: http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/3A9T9VVKW5R/ref=topnav_lists_2

    Thank you in advance, complete with GIANT hugs!

  1726. Watching your crowd-sourced do-gooding is such an inspiration. And proof that the masses aren’t all asses. Which is hard to see on a daily basis.
    When faced with a stringent budget, books don’t make the line item. As a mental health professional, I know the importance of taking care of #1 – I’m just not very good at following my own advice.
    https://amzn.com/w/38LU9LL8KOIPT

  1727. Crap! The book I meant in my comment was “Let’s Pretend this Never Happened”. I’m on the wait list for “Furiously Happy” but, as of today, am 223rd on the waitlist! AAArrrgggggg!

  1728. I could not be happier to know that other strangelings purchased books for me, and I mean my whole damn list! I am in an outpatient program for Bipolar, depression and anxiety. This experiment could not have come at a better time for me. I don’t know who purchased them for me and have no idea how to express my gratitude and appreciation. You guys are pretty great folks and I honor Jenny for coming up with this idea! Thank you times a million!

  1732. AZ Dawn #1720… That helped!!!! ( I think) it’s making me anxious 😳😳😳 would it be too much trouble for you to ask to check behind me if it worked? 😕 People like you are a God send with my ADD and anxious self!!

  1736. Comment #1695, you need to attach an a mailing address to your wish list. I’d love to send you a couple books!

  1738. Probably too late here but thought I would try adding a list for my family. One book or no books… I am amazed that something like this exists. Thank you for using your space here online for good, all of you. Have a nice weekend.

    http://amzn.com/w/1FWSOBAF4FWPV

  1739. The book I ordered for someone was shipped today, thanks for giving me this opportunity to help someone discover your great book. I sometimes don’t even have the energy to get myself out of bed, so finding the energy for charity etc is out of the question at the moment. This was a perfect way to remind me that doing good feels better than anything else 🙂

  1740. OMG I was having such a crap day yesterday, and my book came in the mail. Thank you, thank you, thank you to the anonymous gift-giver. I can’t thank you enough. I’ve had so much heartbreak, and you KILLED IT with awesomeness. My heart is full.

  1741. I’ll be honest. I don’t know if I demonstrate a financial need to justify having someone buy me a book. I do struggle, and sometimes it’s because of my own incompetence at sticking to a budget, but mostly it’s because I work for a company that doesn’t value it’s employees enough. So I don’t consider myself comfortable financially, and I know that others are struggling more than me. But JL books make me laugh out loud. I borrowed the first from the library, and eventually hope to own them all (not both because there will be more than 2). So they are the only 2 books on my list right now. Thank you Jenny for inspiring people to pay it forward by buying books, something I believe we all need in this world.

  1744. I received Furiously Happy today. Thank you to the kind soul who purchased it for me. I’m looking forward to reading it and paying it forward. =Andrea

  1745. John – I’m all for supporting books read to kids. Keep an eye out for a package on Monday.

  1746. Thank you so much for my book! I’ve been wanting to purchase Furiously Happy since it came out, but could not justify the cost. Whomever fulfilled my wish, I thank you!

  1748. Thank you, Jenny, so much for your two wonderful books. They truly made me Laugh Out Loud, and Laugh ‘Til I Cried. You were gracious enough to sign them & your booksigning promo poster in Dallas. I loved seeing you there, and I adored the chance to hang out with The Tribe of Strangelings.

    I am bipolar, in an all-too-lengthy manic phase, and I have a hard time settling down. (Even drawing Zentangles or doodles is difficult.) My book list reflects my needs right now with this mental illness in mind. (I prefer the physical copy; my Kindle doesn’t read well.) Here’s the link:

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2M5CTDWZFVQDF/ref=cm_wl_list_o_2?

    Bless you all in advance for reading this comment. Any good wishes & vibes are greatly appreciated.

  1749. Iain (1747) Thank you so much! I’m teary-eyed with gratitude. I’m going to write your name in the cover of my book so every time I read it I can remember the awesome person who reminded me that real kindness is out there.

  1752. I love this idea! I just sent a book to someone (your first, Ms. Lawson) and hope they really enjoy it.

  1753. I don’t remember whose name I picked, but someone is getting a surprise, Enjoy!

  1754. me again ^^^nikki from up there.

    I just wanted to say that I am really really happy that last summer,one day, I sat down and read my mom the “bok bok motherfucker” story, and she laughed until tears came out of her eyes. It’s a wonderful memory, and we got it in before she died, which i am eternally grateful for. Much love Jenny, knowing I’m not in this bog alone is really helpful

  1755. Thank you so much Adrienne for sending me Allie Brosh’s Hyperbole and a Half book! I have wanted it for quite a while, and gifted it to others, but never could justify buying a copy for myself. I just came out of a really bad depression, we lost several loved ones last year, and severe chronic illnesses takes the fun out of pretty much everything. Thank you for giving me a book that caused huge bouts of laughter, and a little place to feel “normal” with my anxiety and agoraphobia.

    I was comment #1170

    This is now my 2nd favourite holiday! I hope everyone is having as much fun as I am!

  1756. Thank you to the wonderful Booksgiving angel that choose to send me a bit of light in the form of a book. It was truly a wonder to open the mail box and see the yellow envelope. My heart brightened and I will forever know I am not alone. The book enclosed in that envelope will be a talisman, a shining beacon of peace and hope. The gratitude I feel in my soul is gushing. I am a part of this tribe and I am proud to be so.

    P.S. If you are checking back and remember who you gifted…I was #1133.
    Again thank you for sending a piece of your heart my way. It is welcomed and will be cherished…never doubt it!

    P.P.S Also know I make a pact to forever pay it forward.

    P.P.P.S Just cracked the cover….as I begin, it says…..”PART ONE” Shadows”….my heart just skipped a beat as I ready myself to turn the page and begin the journey…

    Happy Reading to Everyone!

  1758. Windsweptarmadillo (1748), Allie Brosch’s book is on its way! Big hugs to you Jenny for such a marvelous idea and to all these lovely people who give freely. To those who find it difficult to ask, we all are generally sucky at asking, but it’s a true joy to spread some sunshine! Cheers to all!

  1759. I want to thank Jo Evans for being such a wonderful human being. Thank you so much for the book. I had it sent directly to my kindle which is currently with my friend. She is battling cancer and depression from the chemo. I loaned her my Kindle with a selection of books on it. I just texted her last night to tell her that a new book is waiting and she should read it. She’s having trouble with even reading, but she’s going to try. (I did add both Let’s Pretend and the audio versions to my same wish list so that I can get those for the Kindle as soon as possible. Since both would help her a lot as well. I have Let’s pretend for my Nook, but it doesn’t transfer easily.)

    But anyway, thank you so much Jo! You are an angel and a wonderful person! Both I and my friend thank you!

    Next booksgiving, I am keeping money aside to gift a book or three.

  1760. So, I may have gotten a little carried away and sent lots of books to people. Despite the anxiety on each one (the “gift note” got me every time, sorry if yours is crappy or missing) this has made me furiously happy!

    Mari (1701), Kim G (1711) : Let’s Pretend This Never Happened
    Kimberly (705): Furiously Happy
    Julia (637), Dark Dancing Butterfly (1038): Both of Jenny’s books
    S & Daughter (539) : I am Malala
    Laurie (1717) : One of the cookbooks
    Tamar (270) : Quiet: The Power of Introverts
    Cassie (295): The Forbidden Queen
    Heather S (345) : A pair of shiny new Nina Borgs
    Sarah (465) : Cracked, Not Broken
    Jennifer (519) : Encyclopaedia of Hell
    Paige Wheeler (646) : The Book with No Pictures
    Anon (1013) : Silkworm & Cuckoo’s Calling

    Most should arrive next week, the Canadian ones may be a little longer, and Tamar’s might take until March(!) because the world is big apparently.

    Big thank you to Jenny for getting this whole thing rolling, and to Sherrie and Jeanie for the status posts to help find non-empty lists!

  1761. Many thanks to Winnie Van de Broeck for my copy of Good Omens! Amazon didn’t show me a link to leave you a thank you over there.. maybe you’ll see it here! I truly appreciate it.

  1762. Received a copy of Let’s Pretend This Never Happened today, courtesy of a wonderfully generous Booksgiving angel. Fairy? Hero? Clearly I should stick to reading, not writing. I don’t have the words to express how grateful I am for this person. You saw a stranger’s post and, without knowing what reasons I had for asking (so hard to do, btw), didn’t hesitate to spend your money to make my life a little brighter. And you did. I can’t wait to read it. Thank you. And thank you, Jenny, for connecting weirdos like me – who cry while trying to think of what to say here – with lovely people who turn sad tears into happy ones.

  1764. Thank you Iain, and thank you to the mysterious giver who gave me Jenny’s other book. I have wanted to read them for a while. As others, I hope to be able to pay it forward. Either by giving a book later when I can, or in some other way.

    A huge thank you to Jenny for taking this initiative. It has blown me away, and brigthened a time that has been hard and made me feel a little down.it’s so awesome to see how this keeps going, days after it was set to be over.

  1765. I had made a wish list on Wednesday for books for me and my youngest son, A kind soul bought them for us (Lisa thank you again). But, I didn’t include my oldest son, he is so smart and good, both of them are. I didn’t know what he would like to read, I added another book to my list. If it’s not to late and there if there is anyone looking to gift a book. We don’t have funds f
    for extras. Thank you. Original comment #1183

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1SMQI1V7HNM2H/ref=cm_wl_list_o_0?

  1766. Iain thank you so much! I don’t mind waiting longer for the book; this way the joy this all is giving me will just spread itself out :). I’m so grateful!

  1769. Iain (1760) you are a sweet angel! Please know you have helped someone who can not work (doctors orders) at the moment and is currently coming to terms with a bipolar diagnosis. I began having seizures due to my anxiety. I am a giver so asking/receiving is hard to do but please know I will be paying your kindness forward as soon as I’m capable!! 🙂 thank you, thank you, thank you!

  1770. Thank you SO much for the Bill Nye book Julie Butkevich. It was really, really awesome of you! hug

  1772. #1238 Jennifer, who wanted “Let’s Pretend This Never Happened.” I have no idea what went wrong, but your book ended up being delivered to me. I checkedfor sending it to you, maybe the address was wrong and defeated back to me?
    I am devastated thinking that you were waiting for it to show today and it didn’t.
    If you post it up again and make sure your address is correct, I’ll go ahead and buy it again for you. I want you to have your book.

  1774. I want to thank (ok, I want to glomp with a huge hug, but there’s a screen in the way) R.N. — just in case you aim for online anonymity — for sending us the book I wish-listed for our son’s birthday! He’s going to LOVE it! I have to find a way to contain my excitement until the end of April, now. Dangit, his is the last of our three birthdays….usually I’m glad about that because it gives me a bit more time to come up with something! The book arrived just before my hubby went to work and I managed to show him while kiddo was in the bathroom and not looking….and he let out a squeal that had Jamie calling, “Ok, what just happened?!” down to us. Whoops…heheeehee! Thank you again, so, so much! <3

  1776. Hey whoever bought my son the frog and toad collection thank you. This was definitely one book you never see at thee library n e more and I just know my lil Alex is gonna love it. Thank you solo much! Happy Books giving!
    https://amzn.com/w/2QAZ3IAV0UM70

  1777. Ms Colt, I think I navigated the German site well enough to send you a book. Fingers crossed.

  1778. Carrie (#1602), thank you so, so much! You truly can’t know how much it meant to me to see that comment today.

  1779. It’s funny how I can’t justify spending money on books for myself right now, but have no problem spending it on others. 🙂

    Angela, sorry I don’t know your original # but I’m glad you received the book. I really enjoyed Yes Please, I’m sure you will too.

    Space Gandalf #1484, Alice In Wonderland & Through the Looking Glass should be awaiting you at home now. Enjoy! I love those books!

    Beth L, I’ve lost your post number in the fray, but Bossypants should arrive Monday. Enjoy!

    Jessica Daveata #1354, Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me should arrive Monday. I quite enjoyed that book, I know you will too!

  1780. Rachel #1704, Thank you so much. I am excited and truly grateful! Money is tight this week, but I hope to pay it forward next week. Thank you!

  1781. Thank you so much to whomever bought the Quiddich book off my list! (Anonymous #238) Jenny was ever so kind to give me a copy of her book,(Thank you, we love it!) I never went back to check the list I made. I was so surprised to get a package today, and so happy to get this book that my son has been requesting! It’s even better, because his birthday was this week. He immediately sat down and started reading it. Thank you, you generous strangling! I’m sending you a virtual bear hug!!!

  1783. Mine was a book I couldn’t fathom buying for myself- afraid of making this situation a reality- Shirley B. sent me the first book I will read about lung cancer in hopes of learning to navigate my Mom’s diagnosis. I find myself smiling and not feeling guilty about it- Thank you.

  1784. I’ve been in a dark hole for a long while now, unfortunately. Unemployment, unfinished education, difficulties in face-to-face social skills, depression sitting heavy on me. I’ve been feeling unwanted with all the rejections and helpless due to lack of finances to improve my skill set. Currently I’m helping to take care of my parents, but its so scary and stressful on bad days. Even on good days there is always a worry in the back of my mind. I’ve been slowly trying to set up a small craft shop, but there’s all the voices of doubt that anyone would be interested in what I make, so I’m currently hung up at the stage of shipping plans.

    Anyways, reading Jenny’s blog here and those of others similar has really helped me hold on in the darker moments. Seeing the wonderful community these people gather inspires me with hope and comfort knowing there are others out there in similar positions of one kind or another. Thank you Jenny. Thank you everyone here. Every day of the year, you’re all incredibly amazing.

    http://smile.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/1GO3H8CH5QNDW
    I can’t pay it forward right now, but I promise to soon as I can once things get better. Thank you so much.

  1785. I removed some of the “wants” from my list and left only the “cannot wait to get my hands” on ones. 🙂 http://amzn.com/w/341D14KZGCIOI

    Lisa S #1776, Where the Wild Things Are and a bonus Robert Munsch book are on their way. The first should arrive on the 10th, the other by the 17th. Enjoy reading them with Alex!

    Iain #1760 I’m glad the lists helped match more gifters with recipients. 🙂

    Sheri #1689 (& a million others lol) I’m glad you got FH! I borrowed it from the library and loved it! Only problem with library books is that you don’t get to keep them, and you can’t lend them to others! 🙂 I’ve lent Let’s Pretend to several people, as I felt the need to share the laughter.

    Anonymous #1719 virtual hugs are always welcome! I think Sheri and I share a special gene that compels us to do these things, despite the fact that we drive ourselves nuts in the process. 😀 Well, I can only speak for myself here, but that’s my guess, anyways. 🙂

    Okay, I’m hiding my credit card from myself for a while, or MC will be getting rather suspicious about all of these random amazon purchases sent to various strangelings! 🙂

  1786. ATTN: Cindy B aka Cynthia Bey aka Cynthia K Van Riper, can’t seem to get it to your address… would love to share this book with you. Send me a msg at canderson1@mtech.edu and we’ll figure it out. Christal (Sometimes it takes me a bit to get through the multitudes of emails from classmates.)

  1787. Jeanie Tortoisefly #1785
    Compulsion is probably the right word haha. I’m so glad someone shares it so I didn’t end up doing it all myself <3

    Anonymous #1719
    Of course! Virtual hugs (and cookies) are always welcome <3 I’m glad I could help. I stalked a few people with websites to tell them their shipping was broken too. (Stalking for good reason is totally acceptable right? >.>)

  1788. Many thanks to those who sent me a book! I really appreciate it. Today, I got “Lobster is the Best Medicine.” I feel like page 25 describes this group. A bunch of birds talk about flying somewhere, but one of them is a kiwi. The next panels shows the whole group in the air with balloons on their normally flightless friend.

  1790. Thanks again for making each week a little brighter. Participating in this was amazing 🙂

  1791. Thank you to my Book Angels! You all are amazing! Jenny, this was/is a wildly successful experiment! I forgot my taxes were coming in this week, so when I saw them in my bank account, I immediately came over and purchased 5 books for others since your readers had so generously purchased for me!

  1792. I’ve been buried in trying to deal with pretending to be perfectly ok for the outside world. It seems to have worked since I got hired after a year of being unemployed but getting that call has set off a series of panic attacks. Wee fun! I’m behind on all my blog reading as a result. To try to get past the hardest minutes and hours, I picked up a knitting needle and have now taught myself how to knit a basic sock. The motions of knitting are soothing, giving my brain something to latch on to that’s not an unending torrent of “cry cry scream cry.” I’ll include my list on the off chance that someone feels like helping with an escape from reality.

    It’s nice to not be alone.

  1793. mybrainhurtsugh – Your second book doesn’t allow a gift card – so just know that it is sent with love 🙂

  1794. Lisa S – 1776 – Shipping 5 books for for your Little Guy, and one for you. Hugs!

  1795. Jenny LaMay – 1789 – No shipping address is available. Please see the blog post updates and post again 🙂

  1796. windsweptarmadillo – 1748 – Buddha box and 2 books on their way. Sent with love and hugs 🙂

  1800. I got my daughters books delivered this weekend. THANK YOU Jenny for setting this up.
    Just a note, Amazon included a gift receipt (It’s tiny, so you have to make sure you don’t lose it.) With the option to reply to the sender with a Thank You note.
    What a fantastic idea! That way it goes right to their inbox without getting lost in the comments. 🙂
    I just thought I’d mention it for anyone who is SO DEEPLY GRATEFUL to be getting books and wants to be able to say something back.
    So keep a look out for the gift receipt!

  1801. Jenny, this idea of Booksgiving is pure genius, and you have created the Best Possible Monster in the Universe for your Tribe to play with. Here’s major gratitude to you for making this whole thing happen.

    To Jule (#1758) – I was one of those who almost didn’t ask, and your gift to me & the comment here on site are so timely, and so cherished. Thank you so much.

    To KidNurse (#1796) – May the universe bless you for your deep generosity. I am blown away by what you’ve done for me. Thank you!

    When the universe allows it, I will be Paying It Forward. The love being spread around here would be a colossal mess if it were literal peanut butter and jelly. THANK YOU, Tribe of Strangelings!

  1803. I know I am really late to the party. I already have your awesome books. Also, I hope you are feeling better. Jenny, I feel your insurance pain because my prescription insurance is making me change medicines because it will save them money. My pharmacist is excited because I am the first person he knows on it. Yay. I started it today, so I thought I would read your blog while I see what this does to me. Thank you for making the world a better place. Love, Samantha http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/22Y65Y5LJMMYE/ref=cm_wl_huc_title

  1804. I don’t know how to do this! Plus…Sprint service really suck.lol My name is Brandy Boag and I really just want to read Jenny’s new book!!! A used copy is great with me…it adds character 😊

  1806. I have the audiobook and listen to it over and over again as needed. I’d love a hard copy to pass on to a friend.

    I’d also love for it to be delivered by Jenny.

    In Jammies.

  1807. Well, this is awkward. I just ordered two books for someone … but I can’t remember which comment it goes to! My mind is like that sometimes. So, Jen H., your books are on their way. Estimated arrival 2/12. Be well, my friend.

  1808. I realize I am very late to the Booksgiving Party, but I made a list of books I think my twins would love to read. They are my grandchildren and they live with me. I put a couple of test prep guides on the list. They would not love to read those, but they would help with some testing they will do in school next month. Thank you. – Sarah

  1810. I woke up this morning to both my cookbooks gone from my list. Thank you so much Iain, and equally wonderful person that bought the other. I’m so looking forward to getting back on track and feeling better, like I know I can. My oldest is getting ready to graduate and it’s big, bittersweet life changes all around for us.

  1811. Leanne- your books are on the way to you. You should have them Btwn the 11th and 13th. I know that feeling. It’s just one day at a time. Do something small for yourself and see how that feels. I hope the books help. Sending you internet hugs.

  1812. 1800 comments. Wow. I’m leaving mine anyway just in case.
    I need this book and then I need to give it to my sister. Actually, I probably need to feed a copy to her, make another copy into body lotion and smear it all over her, and have her read a third, but we’ll start with getting one copy.
    Here’s to the need for an out loud giggle – because, yes, Texas gals think this way.

  1814. HFinn…..the post office is trying to deliver but I got a message from Amazon saying it’s not a valid address.

  1818. Comment number 1613 by Sarah T at February 5, 2016 at 5:32 pm;Happy Valentine’s Day! Amazon says they should be arriving on Wednesday.

    XOXO

  1819. Ok, so I posted this already but didn’t really explain myself, so here we go. This book is for a friend of mine from vet school. She has MS and recently had her vision get messed up because of that. (Which is why it’s an audiobook) She is a kind, funny person who uses her sharp wit to buffer the fact that this all REALLY SUCKS. I LOVED Let’s Just Pretend…., I myself have been through some really shitty medical stuff too (we’re both in our 30’s too, WTF), and your books take my mind off all that crap, and I hope it will do the same for her. Did I mention she’s a CAT Dr.?!? Even if this doesn’t work out, it’s ok. I still think you’re the cat’s pajamas (couldn’t help myself) for booksgiving, and for everything else.
    The link (again, sorry)–

  1820. Jenny, DrMom has headphones on her school wish list on Amazon. I have a set from a computer purchase that I can send her, but I can’t figure out how to message her. Will you pass along my email to her? I don’t need you to post this.

  1821. I would like to send a book to some strangeling, but I don’t know how to find where they are on Amazon. Can you help me??

  1824. Cynthia A Crawford, Thank you SO much for the gift for my dear friend Vickie. I’ll be with her on Wednesday as she learns how to give herself shots, and I’m certain Furiously Happy will be the perfect post-appointment read. You are an angel!

  1826. Pingback: I am a Reader | Jewels of Endearment

  1828. Oh dear, I posted a link to the Booksgiving on my site and it showed up here. Oops….I hope that’s okay that I posted it Jenny. sheepishly hangs head

  1829. Lauren Jeanne, it says “Happy Hippo, Angry Duck” was delivered yesterday. I hope that you got it. 🙂

    Kaitlyn’sMom

  1830. I came home from my crappy job today and seen somebody had bought my son some books but they also bought me 1. Whoever you are I thank you. You didn’t have too but I am so grateful. Alezxs books are always the most important thing to me so the can learn and grow but that someone thought of me too amazes me. Thank you…

    http://amzn.com/w/2QAZ3IAV0UM70

  1831. Anon1814- me? That’s odd. Can you email me at my name at aol? So sorry! And thank you!

  1832. Thank you so much, Rachel M! I got my copy of Furiously Happy yesterday and now it’s my gold star reward for when I graduate at the end of March. I sat it on a shelf above my desk so I can see it there, reminding me that when I FINALLY am done writing this thesis, I can read something amazing that wasn’t published by CENGAGE!

  1833. Lisa, I didn’t know how else to contact you, but I wanted to thank you! I actually cried tears of joy (the best of the tear family :-)). I can’t even begin to tell you how much I appreciate this! Wishes you loads of awesomeness in your life!!!

  1834. Linda J – you just made my day! What a a wonderful surprise at my door. Thank you so much for my book! To be perfectly honest, I didn’t have a lot of faith in Booksgiving, but you, and so many others, have proven me so very, very wrong! I have never been so happy and thrilled to be wrong in my life! I have a pleasant glow about me and a smile for all. Thank you Jenny, for putting this together & thank you to The Bloggess community for reminding me that people are kind, generous caring. As soon as I am able, I will pay this forward. In the meantime, I have a book to read!

  1835. I haven’t had any gifters, but I have gifted two more people.
    Here’s to a great week! Happy reading

  1836. A big “THANK YOU” to the peoples who are sending me books from my wish list! I almost cried when I saw books missing from the list – both of the Jenny Lawson books that I’m sooooo looking forward to read. It is like getting a hug across the miles from someone “like me” and not feeling quite so alone in the midst of this dark and awful depression and knot-tying anxiety.

  1839. KidNurse #1793, you might have made me cry but that’s not such a bad thing. I thank you from the depths of my heart.

  1840. Here I am again. I wanted to give one last time. What have you done Jenny Lawson!? Love you. Anyway, somewhere back I saw someone who had “Yes Please” by Amy Poehler (great book). Who was that? I tried sifting backwards, but whoa. Look at all that generosity!

  1841. Renee (1835), could you please re-link to your wish-list? Also, #1695, tried again to send you a book, but still no shipping address linked to yours

  1842. I was at my moms for dinner tonight, and while my niece and nephew pretended not to be playing on their iPads, I told her about Booksgiving and this amazing community of strangelings doing wonderful things for one another. She’s turning 65 next month, going off disability and onto pension after being an RN in child psych. She spent most of her adult life helping kids and their families navigate the scary world of mental health. She started losing her vision in patches, and decided to learn how to read Braille when she learned that her vision was only going to worsen. She’s actually kind of amazing… But don’t tell her I said so! 🙂
    She was quite intrigued by my stories about this blog and Jenny’s books, so it looks like I’m going to have to find the audio versions for her. I think they’ll be the perfect present. 🙂

    Keep being awesome people!

  1844. I’m a student from Burma (Myanmar). I love to read. Here, English books are rare and are expensive, if they’re available. I can’t afford them. So, I mostly read eBooks. I only have a few paperbacks and hardcovers.
    Here is my list with the books I really need right now, and I’ll be very very (I mean furiously 😀 ) happy if I receive any one of them! Thank you so much!
    Oh, I’m really excited! What a lovely idea, Jenny!

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/39SZMJM3WH49T/ref=topnav_lists_2

  1845. What a brilliant way to inspire people to reach out to others in whatever way they most need or want to right now. I’m a bit late to the party so I hope there are still some unfulfilled wishes for me to fill..!

  1847. Renee #707 you have a book coming! I forget when.. I’m not awake yet. Needed a smile this morning so I thought the best way to do that was to send a smile to someone. Today it is you. Enjoy!

  1850. I got the Furiously Happy audiobook and I’ve been listening to it every night lately and it’s amazing. I always pretend that Jenny and I are best friends and this just helps foster this illusion.

    I’ve been feeling overwhelmed with a lot of things lately and feel like I really need to work on minimizing but then I start thinking about everything I have to do and so I start getting overwhelmed again and it’s a perpetual cycle. I’m hoping this book will help.
    http://amzn.com/w/3W34SS3R9XI00

  1851. To Andrea who bought my books and the one for my 6 year old. It really really really helped and my kid is happily carrying his new book around all the time and I love mine and and and my mom bought me a copy of Furiously Happy because she didn’t know I already had one but it’s the hardback which I didn’t have so I’m keeping that and passing on my paperback to a woman at my husband’s work who is having a really shitty time with a very ill baby who may need surgery soon and the fact this exists makes me feel better about life.

  1852. This is just an amazing testament to how big people’s hearts are. I am overwhelmed by the care, the generosity, the kindness here. Not only sending books, but helping people figure out how to get their lists up correctly, collating huge lists still to be fulfilled, WOW!!!! Don’t let anyone tell you that there is no kindness in the world!

    My deep thanks to Petey who sent me Dancers Among Us. I’ve been smiling ever since I got it!!
    My deep thanks to Kailynn who sent me a poetry book by Lucille Clifton. It has definitely lifted my spirits!!

    Thanks to everyone here, and Jenny, who started it all. I just come back periodically to read comments and my day is brightened. YAY, for us!!!

  1853. A wonderful Shout Out to Lapis – you made my day! I couldn’t be more excited about reading the book! You made my grim outlook turn a bit brighter. Thank you! I am forever grateful!

  1854. Thank you to Typpi and Michelle who bought me Jenny’s book, and a book on coping with grief and loss (they shipped the books together, I can’t tell who got me which one, but believe me both are appreciated) and thank you also to Beth who later got me When Someone You Love Has a Mental Illness, which a friend suggested I give to my boyfriend to read. I can’t tell you what these mean to me – not only am I not alone, I have a way out of my own head and back into the world.

    Thank you seems like it’s not enough, but there’s more meaning and depth behind it than you can ever imagine.

    Donna

  1855. Hi Jenny – I was looking for a way to email you because I’m a little shy but I can’t figure it out and still feel the powerful need to let you know how much I appreciate your book “Furiously Happy.” I listened to the audio book. At the end, I cried and I cry now because my sister died, maybe from suicide. Something in the way your book ended has re-opened all the questions I have about her death. A lot of what you said in the entire book opened my eyes to my own struggles with anxiety and depression, which I never in a million years dreamed I had. But I do. Crazy how 42 years can go by and one can’t see the obvious that’s been walking around inside of them. But, better late than never, it’s helped me a lot to understand myself more deeply. And so I begin a new journey and I love that. I don’t know what the point of this message is. Definitely a thank you and a little bit of a clarity-builder for myself. Thank you. I’m off to continue to try to make the most of my fleeting life.

    PS – I did not steal the name for my blog from your blog. My last name is LaDuke, which was originally spelled LeDuc and which means “duke” in French. The spelling was Americanized long before I had a say in it. I used to be embarrassed about the spelling, even though the general public (France and French-speaking countries excluded) don’t know the spelling is a bastardization of a masculine word with a feminine article.

    When my friend Bus Driver Jim said he’d help me set up a blog as soon as I picked a name for the website I would buy, thedukess.com appeared. It suits me because, like everyone, I am a wobbly composition of masculine, feminine, history I had no control over, and stuff I’m trying consciously to change and do better. Not to mention the glittering parts of me that are actually always ok. Let’s not forget about the saving grace of those.

  1857. Jenny. You wonderful human being. I admire so much your ability to connect people who could use some help with people who want to help. Reading has, on numerous occasions, saved my life. Books have been solace and comfort and for you to give me the opportunity to gift someone else with something so precious nearly made me cry. Never stop being the strange and wonderful person you are! Thank you a million.

    As a sidenote, I have been encouraging all of the people in my life to read Furiously Happy largely because as a person with mental illness it is often difficult to describe the complexities and truths of what that means to daily life. Your book is such an honest and much-needed compendium of the sometimes-scary and often baffling journey of living a full and meaningful life with mental illness. So. Thanks for that. You continue to be my hero.

  1858. I wish I could find Nancy Roman! I want to be her friend! She was SO amazing to send me a gift for Booksgiving! This was beyond awesome!!

  1860. SHERI AND JEANIE –

    Thank you so very much for taking the time to compile the lists of people who still had items on their wish lists. That was so very helpful – and you both are wonderful Tribe members. 🙂 <3
    THANK YOU <3 <3

  1863. Hlyan Htet Oo – you need to update your shipping address. Amazon is saying there is a problem with the address. Let me know when it’s fixed so I can finish my shopping. <3

  1864. Jenny Lemay, I saw your corrected e-mail and sent you one of my childhood favorites from your list “The Monster at the End of This Book,” awesome!
    I think I must cut myself off now. Because every great book I buy makes me feel so good, but it also reminds me of things I want to read, or read to my children, and then my list grows again. Ha!
    Also, I “think” someone bought off my list, so thank you in advance for your kindness!

  1866. THANK YOU to whomever got me my book! I hadn’t actually expected it, but it just arrived today and I am furiously happy about it!

    Thank you Bloggess for creating Booksgiving. I hope you keep this tradition going and will definitely be back next time 😀

  1867. This may be over but this is such a wonderful thing. And I have been having a rough week. Luckily I already have your books so I guess I want to ask the community what other books are out there to help cope with anxiety and depression but still light hearted. Also I have a two year old son so my book wish is for him 🙂 So when Im in the midst of all these crappy emotions I can try to escape through reading with him. Thank you everyone this is such a beautiful thing you all are doing here. https://amzn.com/w/2W55EKM4JVS0P

  1869. This has been the most amazing experience! I was happy to be able to gift to a couple of people on the list, and each of them sent the sweetest thank-you notes! I just wanted to hug them all! Jenny — you are amazing to put things like this together! When the daily news brings stories of how awful people can be to each other, you arrange something like this, and all the good pours out! You make the world a better place — in fact, I think that ALL of us here, recipients or gifters, people who are going through a hard time, and those that have been there themselves and can offer some support — we all make the world a better place when we come together! I love this tribe! 🙂

  1871. Thank you so much to the (still) anonymous giver who was so generous to gift me a book from my paperback list today. I hope that once it arrives there will be a name on the package so I know a little more about who to thank.
    This has been such a great thing to be part of.

    From Mari (#1701)

    P.S. Can you reply back to thank someone for an ebook gift directly as well as here? When I click Reply to the ebook I got, iit looks like I reply to Amazon. Besides here, I’d like a chance to give a personal thank you if possible.

  1872. I want to give a HUGE “thank you” and virtual hug to my two book angels who sent me two of the books off my wish list. I can’t wait until payday on Wednesday so I can pay it forward and send out books from me to anyone who is still waiting.

    This was an awesome idea, Jenny, and it’s made me so happy to see so much love and generosity and giving. You have the BEST followers.

    xoxo

  1873. Nicole & Tracy in Penn – <3<3<3<3<3 you both! I wasn’t expecting books to show up so soon! I swear I’ll find a way to pay this forward!

  1876. Just blubbered like a baby at my mailbox. Today has been, rough. I didn’t realize how undeserving I felt of such a gift, or how much this would affect me. I had an anxiety attack today, my first in months, because I am so afraid about this lump I found (afraid it’s cancer from a long family history of breast cancer, or lymphatic cancer from my brother having a spinal tumor this summer, afraid it will cost a fortune, afraid that everyone will worry about me, afraid that I won’t be able to take care of everyone…) I just cried. Thank you to the kind stranger that did this. There was no note inside, but I thank you like crazy. Giving felt good, but tonight will feel especially good, as I curl up in bed and read, knowing a stranger was kind to me, and that there are other people from this community curled up with their books tonight knowing just how blasted loved they are, and that somehow, it’s all going to be ok.

  1877. I rarely get books for myself, I’m a regular at our little library. My list is books for the two grandchildren I have the privilege to raise. The girl is easy to pick for, but does anyone have good suggestions for a 10 year-old boy? He doesn’t seem to have any friends to pal with, always the odd one out. I know that the oddballs make the best people, but he is having a hard time. What are some classics that he would love, stuff that carries you away and makes you feel better for having lived in that book for awhile?

    http://amzn.com/w/1HKE3MJ0I98YX

  1878. Jennifer J. (1875), please link a shipping address so I can send FH to you. I emailed you the other on your list 🙂

  1879. I LOVE going through these posts and clicking on everyone’s links and finding so many of them empty. That means there are some VERY generous and loving folks in this world and that really touches my heart. I hope everyone is receiving their books and feeling what I’m feeling…that there ARE kind people in this world who give without asking for anything in return.

    There was a message on my Amazon list that someone wanted to know if my list is updated or not, and yes, it’s updated. Thank you to whomever that was inquiring. 🙂

    Happy Monday everyone!

  1881. Sarah (#1877) – What are some of his interests? Does he like sports? Matt Christopher is one author with a lot of sports-related fiction. Or maybe the Goosebumps books?

  1882. Hi, this is the autistic Marie again…just wanted to say I am amused by how many of us have mental/cognitive issues here and want/need help via books =^_^= I also figured out recently that I most likely actually have a form of bipolar and while I long suspected it I am also terrified of it actually being a reality – I now found two books about bipolar that I think might help me

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1YJD1W9HP41VI/ref=cm_wl_list_o_3

  1884. Sarah – 1877 – trying to send for your grandchildren, but Amazon won’t bring up an active address. Could you please check? Thank you!

  1886. KidNurse, thank you for letting me know there was no address. I think I fixed it now.

  1887. Renee – 1849 – Sent the “Stuff” book. Used. So there will be no note – sorry. But sent with love!

  1888. Dear Jen (1878), Thank you very very much. I don’t know if I successfully updated my address. I tried but I have to be on my tiny phone and it’s not the same as the tutorial up top. I can’t wait to start reading the other book. My son is a lot better but of course I still worry and he has almost daily stomach issues and pain. Your care and concern mean so much. Jennifer J

  1890. I’ve got two kids tucked in bed, two cats on my lap, and tears in my eyes at the generosity of this Bloggesian tribe. It does make one feel loved. Thank you very much, KidNurse.

  1893. I’m pretty sure you’re my spirit animal.. Or vice versa. Your Beyoncé the chicken post makes me laugh and cry uncontrollably. My husband was concerned.

  1894. #544 To whomever is my book angel THANK YOU! When I opened the package my old man couldn’t understand the tears. A little story? I am the one responsible for remembering/coordinating/planning/doing everything in my house. Including all gifts. It also means I don’t get anything in return because I do all the work. Booksgiving gave me a chance to give and receive. (I felt guilty for asking so I did gift as well.)

  1899. So sitting here with my husboyfriend tonight and I feel a little guilty…I was telling him about booksgiving,its awesomeness and how we got 2 total strangers books and that someone was sending me one.He was amazed and happy we had participated. But then mentioned that there were 2 books he would like next time something like this happened.LOL. I suppose I shouldv’e thought about him first. He always puts me ahead of everyone and has been my rock the last 13 years. I would never have made it without him….So please if anyone is feeling generous, I’ve updated my list. His 2 are at the top and he is perfectly happy with used books. I’m not going to tell him I did this….I want it to be a surprise. He is so supportive of this community and can see how much Jennys books have impacted me. It’s truly a blessing to be a part of something wonderful…I want him to feel it too <3 <3

  1900. Came here for the Christmas gift exchange because we were very strapped for cash at the time. Now I’m back because I’d like to return the favor, BUT B., I don’t think you have a shipping address so I can’t get your book to you. The name only shows as B.

  1901. I can’t express my gratitude to you guys for lifting my spirits. I am bed bound by this stupid MCAS disease this week and the presence of these new books makes it a little less lonely. Thank you Jenny, Dee, and everyone else who participated.

  1903. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To the amazing person who sent me a book!

  1904. Wow. I hope that my post gets noticed! I think you are hilariously awkward and you make me laugh so much that other constantly ask “what are you reading?”!! it’s so great to share your stories with others. Please send me your Furiously Happy book. i have not been able to purchase it yet. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself with us.

  1905. Just wanted to share that I received my booksgiving book today from a loving member of the tribe. Thanks will be given to the previously unknown benefactor personally, but I wanted everyone else to know that the experiment is working! Thanks again also to you Jenny! Your gifts and love are rippling out through the world

  1906. I am sooo late!! Hope you have books left to give away!! I think you are living my life! 🙂 Sue L.

  1910. Sarah (Rayburn Grandkids) two books (The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Visual Discrimination book) will be on their way to you shortly and, according to Amazon between the 16th and the 20th. Jenny Lamay, your copy of “Down Around Midnight” should make its way to you between Feb. 15th and Feb. 19th. There’s a 99% chance you won’t need the order numbers unless something just does wrong, but if you would like your order numbers to track the packages just lmk and I can send them to you privately. Just email me rogansmom516@gmail.com. Enjoy!

  1916. HFinn…..Yesterday they told me today.. Now today they told me tomorrow. Its actually comical at this point and I have enjoyed the Amazon help desk. They seem to be aware of Booksgiving. Which has been my favorite holiday in the last year!!!! This all has really lifted my spirits. Thank you all so much.

  1919. This is incredibly amazing. Booksgiving is my new favourite holiday hehe.
    Here is my wish list. Is actually a previously made wish list I had. Where I put books I wanna read. As I read them I’ll remove them from the list. Most of the time I borrowed from the library or I can afford it I’ll try to find an Ebook copy as they seem to be the cheapest.

    I’m working full time while attending university full time. Between paying for school and living expenses I find it hard to save up and buy me a copy of a book I love. It would give me immense pleasure if one of you could pick from my list and pick a book for me.

  1920. anon 1916- JL (that’s right, isn’t it? I left the Gift Note at home)- it came in last night! i had called amazon yesterday too and they said that it was just delayed in the post office and would be delivered wednesday. and when i got home it was there. I have been trying all day to send you a thank you note but I think the only way to is with something on the gift receipt. I was actually just filling out one of the lists right now!!! Thank you thank you thank you! I really appreciate it. You have no idea. The list i’m writing now is the happiest moments of my life- it’s nice to focus on the good things that have happened. anyway, i’m sorry i didn’t let you know sooner!! i feel terrible that you went to the trouble of contacting them!

    i’ve loved booksgiving too! it’s been so fun to send books and check when people get them. 🙂

  1921. I got home from my Grandpa’s funeral last night and had a moment of “Wait, why is there an Amazon package on my front porch?” before I remembered that I’d posted here. Thank you, Ashley, for your wonderful gift — I sat on my stairs at 2am crying hysterically but laughing too, and it was exactly what I needed. 🙂

  1922. Hi, not sure if anyone is still reading the comments, I’m not sure what to do. I made a wishlist last Wednesday for books. Lisa #1205, gifted the books to us, I have not received them yet. I just called Amazon and they told the books were delivered last Friday, I think they might of been send to the purchasers address. There’s not really anything I can do on my end. Any suggestions? Original comments #1183, #1195, #1287. Thanks.

  1923. To abbymax.

    Did you remember to add your address to your wishlist, like Jenny tells how? You had to add it specifically to the list, the one you have on your account isn’t enough. If you did, try to check if you wrote your address correct.
    No address and they probably did end up with the giver, and i wrong than you know where they are. I know there’s a lot of comments, but have you skimmed them to see if anyone writes to you about it?
    Sorry it (at the moment) ended this way.

  1926. Have no idea how to figure out who sent my books but it made my night when I got them! Still makes me smile to think about it and smiles don’t come easily lately…

  1927. I’m pretty sure booksgiving is over, but I’m just going to leave this here. I could really use a pick me up after an awful 4 years. I don’t exaggerate either. The last 4 years have been an endless stream of awful. Illness, death, abandonment, more death…..Please, whomever is might be listening, let this year be better, not sure how much more I can take. http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/3ICVJSF143NWT/ref=topnav_lists_2?view=null

  1931. Ehh okay I’m going to do this even tho it’s super late. Hi I’m a writer and a Peace Corps Volunteer in the Kyrgyz Republic and they don’t pay us enough for me to afford new Kindle goodies with our PC allowances, and I can’t freelance for pay because it’s against the terms of the volunteer agreement. So! If any of you dear people would have it in your heart to buy me a book, I would die of happiness and/or kiss your face. http://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/3D24EQ30ZB3U5 I might even send you some poetry.

    Jenny, thanks for being hysterical and vulnerable and writing books and blogs that got me through heaps of bad days after my divorce. Forever grateful.

  1932. This is AMAZING! I just clicked on some wish lists to see what others were reading and they all looked empty. Does that mean there is still good in the world? Makes me happy. Also, didn’t know you could make a list public. Now my family can know exactly what books to buy my kiddos. Can’t wait to read your book to myself and The BFG to my kids. Off to look at some more wish lists.

  1935. oh my goodness!!! I never expected anything when I posted my wishlist for my daughters and I. Thank you SOOOOO Much Jenny for the copy of your book and the book for my daughters! To the other three people (i am horrible with names, who isn’t? For this reason you will be Jill, Jane, and Joann), thank you SOOOOO much for the books!!! My daughters’ now have enough books they don’t fight over them. I bawled my eyes out reading to them the other night. They were like, k thanks mom can we have cheese now? Meanwhile I’m a sobbing mess. Anyways, Thank you everyone who has sent us books. It means more than you know, and my faith in humanity has been restored. xoxoxoxoxoxoxo

    (side story, when my cousin was 6 and just learning to read, he was reading his birthday cards out loud and kept saying “ox ox ox ox ox”) insert crying from laughing emoji

  1936. Hi Jenny, please don’t post this cause I don’t want to make the others sad, but I thought you should know…On my wish list it said that someone had purchased the book Rising Strong (love Brene!) for me. I’ve been going through a deep bought of winter depression and this Booksgiving warmed my heart SO much. I’ve been excitedly waiting for that Amazon box to show up…

    However, I hadn’t received it yet, so I contacted Amazon customer service (very helpful) and she said that someone indeed marked my book as purchased, but there isn’t an Amazon purchase number attached to it so they didn’t buy it from Amazon. Amazon does that so people can choose where to purchase wish list items. That’s a nice thing. However, since our addresses are confidential, that makes it impossible for someone to actually mail the book they claimed to have purchased. It looks like a lot of others received their books, so that’s really great, but there is some troll or lurker that just went in, at least in my case, and clicked “purchased” knowing there was no way to get the book to me. 🙁 wilted flower

    Thanks for all you do to make the world a better place. My birthday is coming up and I’ve told my family that I have an Amazon wish list, so I’m sure I’ll get the book in the end. Love, Rie

  1937. Rie, hope a used copy is okay. I’ll post the order number if you would like proof of purchase. 🙂

  1938. Renee (#1896) you have Miss Peregrine coming your way soon!! Enjoy! I’ve never read those books before. Are they good? Hope it arrives safe and sound!

  1941. Hi DM, you are so kind, thank you! Used books are loved books. I am slightly embarrassed because I thought that Jenny had to approve all the comments and didn’t think it would get posted. I certainly didn’t intend to be a debbie downer in this positive thread of generosity…just thought it was information worth sharing. Since it can look like a book has been purchased (empty wish list) when in fact it hasn’t.

    Anyway, thanks again, you are a dear as is every other Unicorn Success Club member here. Cheers! <3

  1942. Jenny LaMay #1899, Islands in the Sky ordered for husboyfriend, but not shipped yet. BIG FROWN FACE.

  1943. And now I’m crying at work because someone bought me a book. It’s been a really hard few months, and I have a scary doctor’s appointment on Friday, and now I’ll have something comforting to read between x-rays and doctors who are always running an hour late.

    Thank you Jenny for hosting this and Amanda H for the gift. I’m going to pay it forward as soon as I can.

  1944. Monica 1942…..How awesome are you?!?! No worries that it isn’t sent yet. I am just so excited for him to get something special from a complete stranger. Just know he deserves it and will appreciate it more than you will ever know!! <3 <3

    Again…a special shout out to Jenny. This experience is been awesome!

  1946. Iain I received my book (Let’s Pretend this Never Happened) today!! You have NO idea how much you made my day/week!!!! I don’t know how to say thank you enough but please be aware I will Pay it Forward!

  1947. Holy shit. I just have to say, I have never felt SO loved. Thank you all. I’m paying it forward.

  1948. Lorin Smith #1938 I loved Miss Peregrine’s. Definitely worth the read!

    Jessica Daveata #1939 Yay! It got there! 🙂

    I know someone sent me something, but I accidentally deleted it from my wishlist, so I guess it’ll be a double surprise for me when it arrives. LOL. It hasn’t arrived yet, but I’m telling myself that’s because I’m in Canadaland, and it’s coming from somewhere in the states.

    Sheri: I’m contemplating doing another sweep of THE LIST. (whimper) I thought I’d give you a heads up in case you’re feeling the same compulsion, so we don’t both go through all of that when only one of us has to. 🙂

    I love that while Jenny intended this to be a one day thing, people here are just rolling with it, and now a week later it’s still going strong!

  1950. Okay as of now, these lists still have active items on them. As before, I used Sheri’s original list, checked for empties, updated and added the newest lists. If a list was posted more than once it may show up here again, my apologies.

    That takes us up to and including post #1948!

    I really need to do something about this compulsion. It is clearly a sign that I’m in a special category of crazy! LOL.

    I must say, I was amazed at how many lists were empty.
    Keep being awesome strangelings!

  1951. Update for Rie: Book has shipped, but not tracking info. Scheduled to arrive by Feb 18 or so. Enjoy!

  1952. The only thing about this experiment that’s making me cringe is the full names and locations being exposed. I’ve been tempted to give, but I can’t justify risking having my name slathered on the internet unless I change it to John Smith or something =-(

  1954. DM! You are a wonderful human.
    I can’t THANK YOU enough! You’ve made my month! (((_)))

  1957. Dear Jen (1878) and Diana J, Thank you! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I love love my books. I have already started reading Furiously Happy and the I Felt Awesome book I have wanted for a very long time. I even have some of the supplies so I can’t wait to get started this weekend. Bless you both. Jennifer J from comment 1875

  1958. Okay strangelings, the updated list is still awaiting moderation, but once it clears, you’ll have an up-to-date list of all open wishlists up to post #1948. We searched the comments so you wouldn’t have to.

  1959. This is such a sweet idea! I love that people are helping each other out. Our family is having a really hard time right now. I have 3 boys who are all struggling with health issues, sensory problems and anxiety. I made a list that has a book for each of them. If it is too late that is ok and I understand. Thank you for thinking of us!

  1961. Jeanneann, #1904, the book should be to you now. Well, not now, but it was before now, about an hour ago, if you are where the book is -then now.

  1964. it means the books that were on your list were bought by someone. if you go into your account and look at the list you can check “purchased” items and it should show them. that’s great!!!

  1965. @Jessica
    If there’s no books on your list (and it’s public) when you’re not logged in, it means all the books have been purchased by someone for you 🙂
    It does the same for me. To know which books from your list has been chosen, you need to look at it without being logged in. Then you can go back to your list when you have received the books and removed them from you list.

  1969. #1965 – LK – a book for you to read to your Aunt is on it’s way! Take care and keep strong.

  1970. Thank you so much to Anonymous and Susan for the books! I gave each a huge hug on unboxing. Thank you again.

  1971. I look at this list a few times a day and read the comments with so much love. I received a book today – thank you so much to Sarah Burton. I opened the box and burst into tears. Thank you so much. I sent a book out a few moments ago and it made me feel so amazing. Thank you Jenny for all that you do and for setting this up. Thank you to all of you who read and participate and fight every day to keep your head above water. You are not alone. We are all in this together.

  1973. Jensown (1958-59) Your Kindle has been sent, and your boys’ books are scheduled to arrive Tuesday. Enjoy!

  1977. Thank you so much Crystal B! I can’t wait! This is all so amazing, I’d love to be able to check in here every month and send out a book or two! Fantastic idea Jenny!

  1978. I am #686 and I just want to say thank you. Thank you to whoever sent me Jenny’s book…and to whoever sent me another book off my list. That second book? Was written by a close friend of ours so not only did you make me a happy girl, you put money in another person’s pocket!! You had both best be very very happy with yourselves!!

  1980. Dear B., dear D.,

    I was comment #1722. Please know that you have made me very happy. Typing this and thinking about the wonderful hours ahead of me because of your selfless gifts makes me feel all warm inside again (and a bit watery around the eyes). Your books will always have a special place both in my heart and on my shelf. Thank you!

    All the best,
    a very grateful strangeling

  1981. Hey, Anonymous #1973 — enjoy the Kindle version of your book! I forgot to include a note — so sorry. Have a wonderful day!

  1983. I can’t even begin to tell EVERYONE how wonderful this experience has been. I felt so good just sending out books when this started I forgot that I had posted my own list. And I kept forgetting…until today! Everyone deserves a “THANK YOU” for participating! I want to thank those who received the books I purchased for allowing me to be a small part of your life. I want to thank those who sent books to me for making me cry happy tears! Brilliant idea Jenny! What an amazing group of wonderfully messed up people! Hugs to everyone (except those who may have personal space issues, then a vigorously heartfelt wave in your general direction)!!!

  1984. delenn13 – you may want to check Amazon. Got a note that says your book is delivered/available for pickup? 🙂

  1985. Yesterday, I got a copy of Furiously Happy in my mail. Thank you Jocelyn P.! Every-time I look at the cover, I’ll remember that a complete stranger gave that to me, and it’ll remind me there’s still good people and good things in the world, something that I need- because the world terrifies me. It’s been a really nice week, with lots of nice things happening.. of course now I’m terrified that I’m gonna fall over dead, but at least I’ll be smiling. 😀

  1986. Heartfelt thanks to @ResourcefulMom (Amy) for the gift of Let’s Pretend This Never Happened AND Furiously Happy!! This was so incredibly generous of you! I promise, as soon as my kitty-care bills are paid up, I will pay it forward. I miss my (recently passed) kitties terribly but your amazing gift of kindness (and laughter) has warmed my heart beyond anything I could have imagined. This affects more than just me. You’ve made a HUGE difference in several lives.

    Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
    Sending lots of love your way!

    Heike (in Canada)
    THANK YOU!!!!!!!

  1988. I am a teacher who is currently pursuing my master’s degree in teaching and have been greatly struggling with finances as a result. I have wanted to read Jenny’s book but have not been able to justify purchasing it for myself at this time. I promise on my dog, Andy Cohen, and my cat, Coco Bear, that once I have earned my degree and have gotten a raise (a result of getting my advanced degree) I will pay it forward and purchase a book for someone. Thank you, Jenny for doing this, you continue to be my beacon of light in my darkest of days. And to the commenters of this blog, thank you, for being just as entertaining and uplifting.

  1989. Alice Le, I received my book last week and am just now having time to thank you for it. Thank you, thank you, thank you. It brightened my day. Thank you. ❤️

  1991. Hi Heather B. (#1987), your book should arrive on Monday. Thank you for your dedication to others. hugs, Nell

  1992. I keep checking for the list. LOL. Thank you so much for compiling one. it’s hard to go through. Most of the links I click are empty (AwEsOmWe) or the books are a bit to pricey for what I can give. Seeing it all in one place will be helpful. 🙂

  1993. Thank you Christal and Jade (and Bowie!). Your kind words mean so much to me and I’ll hold them close as I read these books. Thank you again. It is great seeing so many wonderful people helping one another through Booksgiving. Thank you Jenny for starting this!

  1994. So very thankful for Sarah, whomever you are. The books were such an amazing gift to receive today. Love being part of this community. XOXO. -KG

  1995. Nell! I wanted to thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for your gift. Wishing you and your grandson all the best. xo

  1997. I tried to post this two days ago, but it never went through, so here’s attempt # 2.

    As of now, these lists still have active items on them. As before, I used Sheri’s original list, checked for empties, updated and added the newest lists. If a list was posted more than once it may show up here again, my apologies, but it’s time consuming enough checking all the links, checking for duplicates is another story. 🙂

    That takes us up to and including post #1996!

    I really need to do something about this compulsion. It is clearly a sign that I’m in a special category of crazy! LOL.
    I was amazed at how many lists were empty.
    Keep being awesome, strangelings!

  1998. @Jeanie Tortoisefly.
    Amazing work, taking the time to do this on a now reaaally long list of people. I hope it will post after you did this.

  1999. Jeanie, you cliud always try to devide the list into pieces. Maybe that will work better for length and approval from the site.

  2000. I got a copy in the mail the other day, and I wanted to thank you and tell you the most amazing story.

    I had been working 12 hours a day Wednesday and Thursday because of parent-teacher conferences. I was so tired at the end of the day, I just didn’t bother to check my mail. I finally got the chance on Friday, and there was a box from Amazon! I exclaimed, “Oh, my god, no way!” as I opened it up to find my very own copy of “Furiously Happy”. At the time, I happened to be on the way to pick up my best friend who was at a bookstore. When I got there, she hopped in my car and said, “There’s a book I just ordered. I think you’re going to want to read it when I’m done. It’s called ‘Furiously Happy’.” I told her to turn around and grab the box from my backseat.

    We laughed and talked about what an incredible moment it was. One of the reasons we became best friends is our understanding and acceptance of each other’s mental health needs and the support we give each other. She gets me in a world that doesn’t always understand. And that’s exactly what your blog and books have done: Made me feel like I actually belong in this world.

    So thank you for the book, thank you for the shared moment with my best friend, and thank you for helping me to know that I belong.
