Hi ladies
This is our book group, there are 5 of us so please can you check in when you have your book. We can use this thread for general chat but no spoilers please Grin

Hi

I have received my book.

Posted to mailfuckoff yesterday (yes a Sunday), so I am not sure when it will get to you. Are we having threads to chat about the books?

Mailfuckoff · 07/05/2018 16:40

I was thinking about it but no one really uses them last time. What do people want to do?

We need to have somewhere to discuss the books otherwise it is not really a book group, more a book loan/swap?

Mailfuckoff · 07/05/2018 18:01

I'm with you, I'm happy to set them up if they get used?

Hi, missed to send mine on Saturday and don’t have this lovely Sunday/bank hol Monday post service (v jealous) but book and chocolate ready to send first thing tomorrow

TheGirlWhoLived · 07/05/2018 20:43

I’m happy to discuss all of them on here (no spoilers) or individual ones, as there’s only 5 of us I’m happy going with the majority! I love seeing what other people thought of my book thoughGrin

TheGirlWhoLived · 10/05/2018 16:29

got my book and happily tucking into the choc! (Guinness chocolate - delicious!!) The galaxy was stolen by DH and the DD's, but it kept them quiet so all good things Grin

Hope mine arrived ok - it was sent a couple of days ago but it didn't have far to travel :)

TheGirlWhoLived · 10/05/2018 16:30

Oh I didn't write my name in mine.... :s it had some Galaxy Chocolate and Wholenut in - so that's mine if you get it

Mailfuckoff · 10/05/2018 18:27

Thanks thegirlwholived. That was me. Chocolate and book much appreciated.

myusernameisnotmyusername · 12/05/2018 22:49

I posted mine today. Sorry it's late.

TheGirlWhoLived · 16/05/2018 12:27

how has everyone got on with their books so far? :)

clairethewitch70 · 16/05/2018 16:17

Enjoying my book, but it is a biggy, so it may take a long time to read.

myusernameisnotmyusername · 16/05/2018 21:39

Not started yet. Just finishing the one I was on. I'm really looking forward to it though.

Mailfuckoff · 16/05/2018 21:43

Hi, also not started yet, but it's look like NG at me so will start soon. Can we aim to finish all books by the end of the month??

Mine just arrived today. Just finished a book last night, so it's perfect timing. Thanks to whoever it's from. Smile

Sorry Claire, that big one is from me...I didn't think about the practicalities of a thick book, did I?!

myusernameisnotmyusername · 18/05/2018 13:33

That could've been mine orchid. I'm not sure of the username just the person's name. Did it have orange chocolate inside?

myusernameisnotmyusername · 18/05/2018 13:33

I'm starting today.

BigPinkOrchid · 18/05/2018 19:23

Yes it did myusername. Thanks, that and the Galaxy will be enjoyed at some point, but I'm currently doing Slimming World, so it's been put in a high cupboard for now...let's see how long it lasts... Grin

myusernameisnotmyusername · 18/05/2018 21:26

Oh sorry! I'm also doing slimming world so have had to show restraint with my chocolate.

TheGirlWhoLived · 18/05/2018 21:38

Haha I'm on Slimfast Grin

clairethewitch70 · 21/05/2018 23:07

How is everyone enjoying their books? Loving mine, and even though it is a big book, I am getting through it quickly as I don't want to put it down. Are we going to discuss the books?

myusernameisnotmyusername · 22/05/2018 23:47

I'm really enjoying mine too.

myusernameisnotmyusername · 30/05/2018 10:01

I've finished my book.

clairethewitch70 · 30/05/2018 12:04

I have finished mine too. When are we sending on next? @Mailfuckoff
