Welcome to the First Round of Yummy Yummy VBB on BookObsessed!

The Rules (shamelessly copied from other vbb's):

(1) I will post a list of books and the order of the box participants by the 18th of every other month (January, March, May...).

(2) Each person may take as many books out of the box as they want; however, you must put in the same number of books (or more). This means that you may be responsible for shipping the number of books that you have put in. You control how many books you are willing to ship by only taking out/putting in that number of books.

(3) You have six months to mail your books that were selected by other participatns. Otherwise, you are obviously too busy to be adding more TBRs to your house. You will still be responsible for replacing books that are due for replacing.

(4) You can opt to skip your turn by not taking any books out of the box and passing the turn on to the next person.

(5) Book from any genre, except children's book (teens are okay) are welcome in this box, if they belong to any of the following:
a. Fiction or non fiction with food words in the title. eg. Like Water for Chocolate; Eat, Pray, Love; The Olive Season, ...
b. Fiction with a plot around food or restaurant. eg. Promegranate Soup, Last Day at Lobster, Chocolat and all those food murders.
c. Non fiction about food. eg. books written by Ruth Reichl or Anthony Bourdain

What are NOT welcome:
a. Textbook or manual type of books. eg. How to run a restaurant business,
home brewery guide.
b. Wine or Restuarant guide eg. NY restaurant guide
c. Cookbooks, diet books.

(6) You have 48 hours from the time the person before you posts their move in the thread to make your move. However, if this is a problem (eg. No computer access, travel, illness, busy work…) just let us know and we can move you down a few slots. Otherwise, you may be moved to the end of the list. If you don't show up at all for a round, you will be removed from the list. However, you are welcome to rejoin at any time.

(7) New participants are welcome and can join at any time! They will be added to the end of the list until the next shuffling.

(8) If any of your books have "**" in front of them, it means it has been in
the box for two rounds and you will need to replace them at your turn.

(9) If you wish to drop out of the box, you will still be responsible for shipping the books that you put into the box, either by mailing to whoever chooses them, or to the organizer of the box.

(10) The list of participants will be randomized at the end of every third round.

(11) Once you've taken your turn, kindly PM the next person to let them know it's their turn. If you can't PM them for some reason, please say so when you post your move, so someone else can!

I think this covers it, and I will now work on the list of books and participants.

Whoever has contributed books in the previous round, please let me know asap if you need to change the titles you offer.
I have tried to put together a wide selection of different genres of books, I hope you find something you like.

Okay we are ready to start! Blackadder, whenever you are ready!
