Hiya

The following people want in:

Autumnlady
Dozymare
TheDrsWife
Bubbaz
Yorky
PinkyMinky

Any more for any more???

I think the sensible way to do it is that each person sends their book to the same person every month to avoind confusion ie:

Autumnlady to Dozymare, Dozymare to DrsWife etc etc

We could do this on a certain day every month such as the 30th or something? I am open to offers on how fast people read etc.

Let me know what you think

I just finished it last night, so will get it in the post tomorrow. It was a Thousand Splendind Suns......fantastic book. I only started reading it at the weekend, and finished it last night. Fantastic

I had an email from Yorky. she can't remember what the book was last time, let alone had the time to read it. Could someone email and refresh her memory, whoever sends to her.

Tinkerisdead · 24/09/2008 15:08

lady buzz, yours will be in post by the weekend if thats okay? still catching up as i got it late and i really want to finish it. hope thats alright? x

daisy - a thousand splendid sons was the one i put in the mix, i loved it too.

LackaDAISYcal · 24/09/2008 15:26

AutumnLady · 24/09/2008 15:26

Drs wife that is fine no problem. Hope you are ok

Tinkerisdead · 25/09/2008 17:28

daisy - yep got secret stork, have bought the goodies to send to my recipient thank you for chasing for me.

Autumn and Ladybuzz, im good thanks. Things been bit busy and friend had a baby and she's needed a lot of support so not much PC time. Im not sure ive actually taken time to think about this impending baby and so im trying to slow down a bit and think about it. anyone else feel like that?

Dozymare · 27/09/2008 06:56

I am so so naughty will be sending my bok out today I promise!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is a very liughthearted read - also recieved "A thousand splendid suns" which I read for 2 hours last night..........very very very good so far!

DM xxxxxxx

missygoo · 07/10/2008 18:03

Did I send mine??
I honsetly can't remember?
I think it was the Q&A one. I didn't get a mo to read it,unfortunately, but I am sure I sent it on.
I think I did?????

Dozymare · 08/10/2008 12:05

CAN SOMEONE PUT ON THE THREAD WHO SENDS TO WHO...I CAN'T FIND THE EMAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pinkyminkee · 08/10/2008 20:45

Missy- yes I got Q&A thanks very much. Sorry I've been a bit rubbbish with this. I've only just finished deception point, which I am sending, very late to Autumnlady.

LackaDAISYcal · 10/10/2008 19:56

I managed to send mine, but haven't had the next one from Yorky yet!

she did email to apologise, and the fact she can't find it as she put it somewhere safe or remember the title isn't helping

So, it looks like things are held up with me for a bit; but somehow I think it's all going to grind to a halt soon when babies start arriving

I stocked up on light reads at the charity shop the other day though so I am not without a read.

this is the list that I have; not sure if it changed though

Dozymare

Missygoo (twinklingfairy)

AutumnLady

LadyBuzz (bubbaz)

missygoo · 12/10/2008 21:50

oh I didn't know, or remember anyway, that I was passing to pinkyminkee.
Well, I thoroughly enjoyed my latest and have finished already! so, if you are ready Pinky, I will just post it straight out before I mis-place it?
Unless we really are going to stop.
Where are we in the list? How many more to go?
I have just recieved The Trouble with Marriage, who's was that originally?

I too have stocked up, from the charity shop. It is just the best place to get books when you eat them, isn't it!!

Dozymare · 14/10/2008 02:45

I am happy to keep going - I have just finished a Thousand splendid Suns and will post to missygoo today/tomorrow. It was a brilliant read, I thoroughly enjoyed it....

I am guessing that if anyone wants out, they can do so once we have gone full circle?

what do you think???

I have really enjoyed this though!

AutumnLady · 14/10/2008 15:51

I am happy to keep going as really love getting surprise books in teh post.

Don't worry Pinky - just send the book when you have it!! Problem is that I didn't get a book last time so can't pass one to Drs Wife.

DrsWife - let me know if you want me to send this one on but just later than usual?

Oh gawd I'm soo sorry. I will post you two books tomorrow I am such a sloth at the mo.

Oblomov · 15/10/2008 22:20

Please can I make a request.
Please would a couple of people post me a book.
I can read War and Peace in 2 sittings. I will be in with my cs for atleast a week. And I can't take them from the library, becasue I don't know when I will need them. I like John Irving/Margaret Attwood/anything with a real twist at the end.
Couple of you lovely ladies , please sort me out.

MonkeyMargot · 16/10/2008 09:35

Right, Obs. I also love Margaret Atwood. Have you read Kate Atkinson? I think you will like. It's a tad lighter than M.A, but "chick-lit" it isn't.
If you send me your address through Facebook I'll post them to you.

Pinkyminkee · 16/10/2008 13:48

I will gladly send you some Margaret Atwood, Oblomov Autumnlady I have sent you two books. I suggest that you read Q&A first as it only takes a few hours then you couuld pass it on to DrsWife. I'm so sorry for the delay, I've been getting some bad headaches so not reading a lot and generally being a bit rubbish, but they should be with you v.soon!

LadyBuzz · 18/10/2008 16:08

Hi everyone, Missygoo the trouble with marriage was mine originally so that would make us 3 from the end??
I've just finished the one I have and will post to Choco this week.
I've really enjoyed it too and am happy to continue I love reading.
Obs I have ALOT of Norah Roberts but I haven't read any so I can't vouch for how good they are - my aunty gave me bags full. You are welcome to as mny as you like if you want to give them a go.

Tinkerisdead · 19/10/2008 11:34

send me whatever you like Autumn, im happy to keep going, even with babies arriving i am ever hopeful i could try to maintain some reading!

lady buzz your latest book will be posted out on monday :-)

missygoo · 20/10/2008 00:02

Oh Lordy, there was me full of good intentions. My book is packaged and ready to go but sitting in my car waiting to be taken to the post office and my car is sitting at my house whilst I am at my parents!!
Yikes, I will try to get out there soon and get it, it may be Tuesday before it is even in the post though. Sorry Pinky

Pinkyminkee · 20/10/2008 14:57

Hi Missy
Hope you are having a nice time at your parent's house.
Don't worry about the book, just send it whern you get chance.

MonkeyMargot · 20/10/2008 16:39

Obs have posted 3 books to you today. Hope you like them

nuttymum303 · 21/10/2008 14:47

AutumnLady · 21/10/2008 20:57
