So far we are going to give 3 Alcatraz as presents.

I hope not to the same people I'm giving copies to?

So far I'm giving out 3 copies of Alcatraz and 2 copies of Elantris.

I think I might end up doing a few more.  I have a few people on my list who I know would love Mistborn or Elantris, but they "don't have time" to read.  IMO they just haven't read the right books that will convince them to make time.  So, could be a bit risky, but I think I'll probably end up doing it.

I bought Elantris, Mistborn and Mistborn 2, all hardcover for my sister and brother. Although they are combination birthday/christmas gifts.
Now you've got all the ones with beards on one side and all the
moustaches on the other.

None.  The bumb is already getting presents from me, he doesn't need me to give him copies of his own books.
Screw it, I'm buying crayons and paper. I can imagineer my own adventures! Wheeee!

Only one copy of Elantris.  The only people I would give Alcatraz to already own it.
If I had any clue, would I be here?

I'm sending a signed copy of Mistborn to my bestest friend. She hasn't read it yet, so I'm hoping to have my first convert! :)
