Put me down as a tentative, please. :)

Thanks! I'd sort of like to still be there, but I guess it was time to come home :giggle:

PepperVL - February 5, 2008 04:57 AM (GMT)
Me, probably.

My head is spinning with this new job, and it's entirely possible that I'll be too distracted to swap, but I'm hoping that swapping will be the distraction I need!

GateGypsy - February 5, 2008 05:33 AM (GMT)
I have a book to swap, but no time to read it :cry:
I think I'll have to sit this month out and hope to have another go at it in March...

(and having said that, just watch, there'll be tonnes of really awesome books revealed and I'll be kicking myself...)

You could always put it in as a TBR :peek:

Amberkatze - February 6, 2008 08:19 PM (GMT)
Where are all the other teen swappers??? We always have such a nice crowd!! :whip: :shedevil:

They are probably like me and hesitant to add yet another TBR on the owed pile. :lol:

I am still debating rather to play or not.

Don't put me down just yet, but I will check back in before it starts.

I like to swap, especially teen books, but with the teen VBB going monthly, it's just getting to be a bit much for me with both of these every month. I've trying VERY hard not to offer TBRs, unless it's something I'm actually already in the middle of reading.

luckaye - February 7, 2008 12:58 AM (GMT)
I'll have to pass this month - I owe too many books as it is and I am trying to get it under control :blush:

PepperVL - February 7, 2008 04:13 AM (GMT)
I can definitely see how having both this swap and the Teen VBB every month could get a little overwhelming for our regulars.

I'm a definite now if we have the swap, but I'll certainly understand if we cancel it for this month as well.

:ditto2:

As much as I love swapping, and especially this one, it's not fair with people to whom I owe books from previous ones...

Amberkatze - February 7, 2008 05:16 AM (GMT)
Well we could still swap with 5 players...couldn't we???

I think so. If we are going to skip a month, I'd rather it be March cause I'll be out of town again on the 13-16th (another George Strait weekend :giggle: This time the team roping )

EllyMae58 - February 7, 2008 01:57 PM (GMT)
You can make me a definite! I'll understand if you need to cancel it though, due to lack of participation this time around.

Amberkatze - February 7, 2008 02:06 PM (GMT)
I don't want it to be cancelled! I need a swap!!! :blink:

Yeah!!! The PUF swap is only every 2 months and I have given up on the chick-lit swap. I couldn't take part in the best of 2007 swap which started last week because I knew this week would be a heavy week work wise and that I couldn't check in every 12 hours. So now I am ready for a nice swap or 2 :D

GateGypsy - February 7, 2008 05:43 PM (GMT)
Ok, if it's a matter of having enough people, then I will join in and suffer my own consequences :lol: I cannot resist -- especially if there's a chance that March will be cancelled!

fantasy221 - February 7, 2008 07:03 PM (GMT)
I'll join! I already know what I'm offering! :bananadance:

KathyB - February 7, 2008 09:24 PM (GMT)
:pepper: yeah!! more people!

Amberkatze - February 8, 2008 09:15 AM (GMT)
Woooohooooo!!!

Happy I will be taking part in one swap this weekend! I asked to join the Valentine Swap and they already started and I wasn't on the list :cry:

:wave:

I'll play! I'm sending out my reveal in a few minutes.

Booksforever - February 9, 2008 04:51 AM (GMT)
I'll play
:wave:

EllyMae58 - February 9, 2008 05:03 AM (GMT)
What age range for this swap?

I am considering one book that I think would be liked, but it's more toward the younger age range. What do you think?

I think we've usually gone with 13+ on this one, but it would not bother me if it was for a younger audience. Anyone else?

fantasy221 - February 9, 2008 06:25 AM (GMT)
It would bother me - I like Teen/YA, but am generally not interested in children's books - but if I'm in the minority I just wouldn't ask for Kel's reveal!

Amberkatze - February 9, 2008 07:56 AM (GMT)
Will be sending my reveal out later...maybe we can make an early start! :D

Amberkatze - February 9, 2008 12:07 PM (GMT)
Sent out my reveal!

PepperVL - February 9, 2008 02:18 PM (GMT)
If the randomizer puts me near the top, please bump me down a few spaces (or even all the way to the end).

The cold I was fighting has turned into something more and I'm going to go to the Urgent Care to see what's up, but I don't anticipate being coherent for swapping early on. :(

wss4 - February 9, 2008 02:36 PM (GMT)
As much as it is breaking my heart to do so, I am going to skip this month. I have got to get caught up on my owed TBRs before I add more to the pile. Hopefully by the next swap I will be in better shape to participate. :cry:

Hope you get to feeling better Pepper. There is some serious viral upper respiratory stuff going on here and tons of kids as well as teachers have been out sick this week.

:hug:

Hope you feel better soon!

I am sure if you ask the doctor he will tell you that swapping will make you feel better :giggle:

If it would be well-liked, then I'm in for prettymuch anything. Just as long as it's not a vampire novel... I doubt I could handle vampires seducing 8 year olds :yuck:

:rofl:

That viral upper respiratory infection wss4 was talking about is what I had the week before my trip. I haven't been that sick in years and I still have a very nasty cough that I can't seem to get rid of. I really hope you don't have that Pepper, it is bad stuff.

PepperVL - February 9, 2008 10:50 PM (GMT)
I have bronchitis. The Urgent Care doctor gave me antibiotics, and cough medicine/decongestants. I came home, took them, plus something for my fever/headache, drank some tea & soup, and slept.

I feel a little better now, but I still can hardly talk, and it's difficult to breathe.
