Hi I have started another thread as the old one took ages to sort out. Right as far as I am concerned our newest member is Mars. Katy, I am not sure if you have added any more???

This is where we are at (or should be). Next week everyone should have read 2 books except Mars. You can post on the third book (this includes the first book you sent) at the end of next week if you wish.

If anyone has not recieved their 2nd book by Monday. I will alter the list and drop anyone out who hasn't posted.

Have a great weekend

Ive just received an email from MarsLady!!!Did you get it/send it UCM?

MarsLady · 28/06/2006 09:12

Yup. I just hit reply all to the email that sent about the books to say that I'll be sending the book on at the weekend. It's distracting me from my studies. It's rather good.

kipper22 · 28/06/2006 11:04

WellKnownMemorablePeachyClair · 28/06/2006 19:49

Ditto KKA- except my problems are DH and an over enthisastic delete button! Sorry

PanicPants · 28/06/2006 20:44

Have just checked my email and sent a reply UCM, I've had and sent all books up to date, and will post atlantic Shift on, on Saturday.

But if peachy hasn't received her second book, I won't receive my third book (iuswim). So what do we do about situations like that?

kickassangel · 28/06/2006 22:18

i'm posting my book tomorrow - aren't i a goodie 2 shoes? just call me LickAssAngel

OK have just checked my yahoo mail and I have had a reply from the person sending to Peachyclair. She will send you the next 2 books if thats ok with you. If thats ok with everyone I don't think anyone will be dropped off the list.

WellKnownMemorablePeachyClair · 29/06/2006 10:13

That's fine UCM, I'm a fast reader so that won't be an issue. Panicpants (it is you I send to isn't it?) I will send the first on a few days after I get it, that should be oK?

FrannyandZooey · 29/06/2006 18:07

I've sent yours on today Boris, because I'm going away tomorrow. Only sent it second class though, so will prob get there next week.

PanicPants · 29/06/2006 20:53

Yes peachy it is me, no worries. I'll look forward to getting it when your ready.

I've done my review on Atlantic Shift and will post it on tomorrow.

MarsLady · 29/06/2006 23:01

I'm gonna try and finish it tomorrow so that it can go on Saturday (but I so need to finish my essay.................. oh what to do? Sigh.......................)

kipper22 · 30/06/2006 09:30

don't worry too much mars - i'm away for the weekend and have a book i started reading while i was waiting before that i'd like to finish so get your work done first! (I'm not sure that's what you wanted to hear if you're anything like i was as a student!)
