Hmm, knew it was a wild guess. Will have to think more carefully!

Thinking of a clue now 
How about...her username on here is a nickname version of her surname.

Well I couldn't guess my SS alone, so today I popped over to Melissa's house.... I didn't know whether to bring up the BB SS or not, so in the end decided to go with the direct approach and ask Melissa who she got.... You've probably guessed by now but Melissa was my SS!!! Bizarre!! She can't lie so as soon as I asked the question she admitted it! I'm so glad that I waited until after Christmas to mention it to her, apparently every time I said anything about BB she tried to change the subject as quickly as possible so as not to give herself away.
I just wanted to say thank you to you Melissa, not only did I receive 2 books but also you went to so much trouble. The story is this... Melissa didn't want to post my books as I'd see the Watford postmark. So she thought she'd hand deliver them, but had to try and work out when I'd be out. So she found out when I was going out on a Christmas do, parcelled up the books (including going to the trouble of putting used stamps on the jiffy bag and matching up the postmarks to look authentic), finally the parcel wouldn't go through my letterbox so she had to leave it by my doorstep and hope for the best!
A job well done all in all as I didn't guess, didn't even recognise the handwriting!
Thanks again and happy guessing to everyone else, I had a lucky break I think.

Lovely treez, you got it..... it's me! Glad you liked the book.
Melissa gave me The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid by Bill Bryson and The Death of Vishnu by Manil Suri. Both are books I've fancied reading for a long while so I'm looking forward to getting stuck into them over the coming months.
