Posted mine today

janeite · 03/11/2008 19:08

Phew! Okay: I have chosen yours and will try and get it posted before the end of the week. How do we let each other know what we think of them?

Flamesparrow · 03/11/2008 19:21

Start a thread with "Second Chapter Pt 2 - X's book" I think, and then we all pile in.

Or as in the case of my last group, I pile in, everyone else either can't be arsed to read the book and/or post about it

andyrobo237 · 03/11/2008 20:14

My book will be later on in the week - I am half way through it and will try to get a few more chapters read later - it is a good book and has a 'story' about where it came from attached to it - all will be revealed when you get it!!!! and no I didnt write it!!!!!!!!!

I've started a thread for each book, so we just have to find the right thread and post on it as we read the books.

Very organised!

andyrobo no problems- I am desperately trying to finish an enormous book for my other reading group (rl) so I need to get on with that.

wheresthehamster · 03/11/2008 21:16

Well done Jas! Thanks for setting it all up.

I'm not sure whether the book I've selected is going to be too hard going, too old or too limited in it's appeal. But I enjoyed it and will be interested in reading what other people think. Will post tomorrow prettymum.

bookswapper · 03/11/2008 21:43

does everyone else know we have started posting books? [nervous emoticon]

EachPeachPearMum · 03/11/2008 22:00

cyanarasamba · 03/11/2008 22:05

I have mine ready to post but may not get to the PO till later in the week. Mine has a bit of a "story" behind it too so I'm looking forward to discussing it with you lovely lot.

bookswapper · 03/11/2008 22:29

My book was lost last time - it was quite disturbing I grant that!

This time its an old fave...

mybabysinthegarden · 04/11/2008 09:53

janeite · 05/11/2008 20:28

Flame - sorry, I'd planned to post it today but have been in bed with a migraine for much of the day. It might not be before the weekend now but you WILL get it, so I hope that's okay?

Got mine from the lovely EachPeach yesterday but haven't had chance to start it yet; am going to save it for Sunday afternoon and savour it.

prettymum · 06/11/2008 15:57

Jas · 06/11/2008 18:07

My plan worked

(Prettymum getting a book, realising why, and posting hers....)

Next week is fine.

I would also like andyrobos book if poss. I haven't had it yet.

OP posts:
andyrobo237 · 06/11/2008 20:21

Mine is ready to post tomorrow!!

Flamesparrow · 07/11/2008 08:25

Really not a problem - I never have a book shortage, or could always re-read twilight

My book arrived yesterday, so it will go out today once I have written my name in it so you know which thread to post on!

janeite · 07/11/2008 16:51

Lol - well you enjoy that!

Yours went in the post today, as lovely dp sorted it out for me whilst I was at work. There is not a vampire to be seen in it though, so you may be disappointed.

Flamesparrow · 07/11/2008 17:35

Hamster - yours has been sent today

bookswapper · 08/11/2008 08:42

Yogabird...hello!
You will have a book dropping through your letterbox very soon!
Once again, I ordered a copy from Amazon and had it sent to you....
Would you mind writing Bookswapper inside the cover again?

I hope you enjoy it1

Many thanks!

Flamesparrow · 08/11/2008 10:26

It came! Nothing I would normally choose, which I have learnt from my last circle is really good!

I am very stubborn btw, and refuse to not read the books
