Description: OFFICIAL SIGN UP & CONFIRMATIONS Dec. 3


cheesygiraffe - November 26, 2007 06:35 PM (GMT)
I'm going to host a Christmas themed mystery swap on Dec. 3rd, sometime the morning. Your book reveal has to be a mystery, of any kind, and must be either set during Christmas, Christmas type words in the TITLE or a actual Christmas mystery. If you have any questions just fire away. Please confirm if you're already on the list. And sign up if you aren't on it yet. ;)

I am sooo hedging. user posted image I want to, but I shouldn't is the gyst of it. I don't have a book ready for this swap, though I do have something on Mt. TBR. So I've been trying to see how caught up I could get on some of the other backlog—and deciding not to read two of the older bookring books I have in my possession has certainly helped—but I'm still working on a some books owed from back in March, and wanted to throw in a few of the longer term loans I've had since last year. So not wanting to stress myself out more, particularly during the holiday season, you can see why I shouldn't play.

On the other hand, Christmas (and Yule) comes but once a year, and unless we're going to have some other type of Christmas-y swap maybe a little later on in December—does anyone know if we are? I was assuming not—then I won't have the perfect swap for this book I've got until next year.

So that's my dilemma, and I was kinda hoping to see where my reading list was at when this was getting ready to start next week.

So can you leave me as a maybe for the time being, and I'll see how things look by this weekend. If I can definitely play stress-free, then I'm in! If I'm feeling overwhelmed, then I can't chance adding more stress. And yeah, I know I shouldn't let books owed stress me out, but it does... that's just the way my body ticks. :sigh:


Sorry for such a long answer that isn't really a definite answer one way or another. I suppose though, if you need a definite right now, you'd have to put me for a no. :(

cheesygiraffe - November 28, 2007 12:09 AM (GMT)
I don't need an answer now Cherie. ;) Was just wondering where you were standing. Seems you don't know yet. :)

cheesygiraffe - November 30, 2007 10:59 PM (GMT)
:bump:

CheriePie - December 1, 2007 04:48 AM (GMT)
Alright, I'm nearly done with my current read and should be able to finish it up this weekend. Yeah, I've still got 40 some odd owed TBRs, but I'm going to attempt to squeeze in my Mystery read next. :grin: So you can make me a definite.

This post looks so weird to me.

I don't see the banana when I'm at home (I adblocked them! :dance2:) so it looks like you said nothing!

(though I can see in the text when I quote that you did banana cheer. :D)
