2 packages arrived from Paperbackshop today - anyone from here? :unsure:

morsecode - January 18, 2008 08:06 PM (GMT)
I figured out what I'm sending, but I need to give it a quick read first... it's supposed to be very good :)

zzz - January 21, 2008 01:35 PM (GMT)
Julie I'm so sorry for holding things with your month but I really didn't expect I'll be forced to be away from the PC for so long (I guess you know about my medical problem). That's why I didn't send monthly reminder, address, checking, ... anything.
Giz was true angel and has done all that but I asked her with two weeks delay.
I'm really sorry :blush:

camis - January 21, 2008 02:01 PM (GMT)
Don't worry Milan - these things happen and I'm sure I'll find enough things to read for a while anyway :lol:

Good to see you back - hope everything is ok now :kiss:

wss4 - January 27, 2008 01:26 AM (GMT)
I mailed your book out today Camis. Maybe it will make it before the 1st. :wink:

geishabird - January 29, 2008 02:32 PM (GMT)
Camis, so sorry I'm running late for you this month... :bash: Your book will be in the mail today. I will send it via special emergency book rate. (That's a service option, isn't it? :P )

UPDATE: Book is in the mail, but I forgot to write Ballyswapper on it...but you can tell which is mine from the Toronto return addy. :D

giz-angel - January 29, 2008 09:10 PM (GMT)
The book I ordered for you first ended up being out of stock. Then I bought one from Ebay..... it hasn't arrived. I'm doomed :scared: fingers crossed 3rd time lucky and I will have your book to you next week!

camis - February 1, 2008 08:05 AM (GMT)
Well, February is here so I've opened the parcel I received form Sunny.

The Colour by Rose Tremain - wishlist book :bananadance:

Thanks Tracey

zzz - February 5, 2008 12:47 PM (GMT)
I've just sealed the envelope with the book for you and have noticed that it's no longer on your WL :( and that was the only book from your WL I actually have.
Now, put it back! :whip: :P

I'm sure I'll be able to make use of it, whatever it is!

zzz - February 6, 2008 12:47 PM (GMT)
I don't see it on your shelf neither ...

camis - February 6, 2008 01:24 PM (GMT)
Aha, in that case I think I know what it is...I received a couple of unregistered books from a BCUK exchange. I'm always happy to have duplicastes, so it really doesn't matter.

It's like Gideon Mack all over again :giggle:

zzz - February 6, 2008 01:29 PM (GMT)
Can you tell me (Or PM me) the title and if you're right I'll find something else. If not I'll send you this one. I don't want to send you book which I already know it'll be duplicate.
You didn't know about Gideon Mack.

It would be really strange that you managed to receive this one in such a short time. This was the safest choice to avoid duplicate :lol: :dance2:

NO I didn't :whip: but I'm surely glad she's been robbed :lol:
I have the book (lovely Giz sent me in monthly exchange) but it's huge and thanks to giz I'm terrified with the language in it so if I decided to read first my copy and then send to camis, she would receive it sometime next year :blush:

I loved Truth and Beauty by Ann Patchett which is Lucy Grealy's story told from Ann's perspective, so am really looking forward to reading Lucy's own account of her life.

Thanks Karen :kiss:

Sorry it didn't get there sooner, but I had to give it a quick read before I let it go. :)
