The new Chapter 12 year has begun, and I've received packages from... :drool:

1. lovemylife
2. SimplyCee
3. dancing-dog
4. ramson
5. wss4

I'll be sending yours out with my next post office trip. :)

A package from me will be in the mail tomorrow.

Sent mine off today! :D

I've found a book and it will be going out this week!!

I've read your Chapter 1 book but am going to try to read Fingersmith (which I owe you from a relay) by the end of March so I can send them at the same time. It will certainly be mid-month at least before mine arrives. :blush:

My book for you is packaged and heading to the PO tomorrow morning.

Will read yours soon and mail it as soon as I can! :wink:

UGH!! Three trips to the post office and each time I come home to find your book still sitting on the table. I swear I'll get it mailed. :wub:

Finished your Chap 1 book and it's on it's way as of today! :P

It was mailed today. Hope you enjoy it. :hug:

Sounds good! No rush! I'm in no danger of running out of reading material.....ever. :lol:

Yay! You got the package! All the packages I sent that day arrived pretty quickly for media mail. They went out on Tuesday and people were journaling them on Friday.

YOL... show us what you got!!! :flasher:

I will get yours out one day this week with all the winter mess lately I havent been too many places lately!

Phew! I went out of town this weekend, so I wasn't even around the yummy packages when my big day finally came. But at long last, here I am with what I've got of my March haul! :)

All wish list books so far, which is always exciting! :bananadance:

From SimplyCee...

Gods in Alabama! A book people always seem to be raving about!



From ramson...



If Nobody Speaks of Remarkable Things! Which happens to be blurbed by Maggie O'Farrell on the front, and she happens to have written one my favorite reads of late, so I'm that much more excited. BTW, ramson, am I correct in assuming this is unregistered? I didn't see a BCID, but wanted to make sure! :)


Next up is wss4 with Coal Run! A book that I had to put back in a heart-breaking "I'm out of money at the book sale" moment :( but now I've got a copy! :)



Dancing-dog sent me a copy of Obasan! Since I read When the Emperor Was Divine I've been interested in reading about the Japanese during World War II, so I'm definitely excited about this one!



And last (well, actually her package was first!) but not least is lovemylife with not one but *two* wish list books! Books that have been on my wish list for quite some time, no less.

The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse



and

Baker Towers





And that's all for now! Thanks so much ladies! It's always so much fun to see the books rolling in and even more fun to read them! =D

You are correct. The book I sent is an unregistered copy. Enjoy!

My book IS finally on it's way to you as of yesterday.

I finished reading your book last week and it's all packed up to go out tomorrow!

I love opening days :D

I mailed mine today and it has Chapter 1 marked on it!

Your book is ready to go out tomorrow! I just have to find five minutes to get to the post office!

I got two more packages in the mail today containing three more wish list books! :D

From Nursie:



The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen, an author I've wanted to read for a while now!

And from Azuki:



Ella Minnow Pea by Mark Dunn - I can't count how many times I've seen this in swaps and wanted it!

and



The China Garden - another fascinating sounding book from my wish list!

Thanks, ladies! :wub:

I'm glad to see that my book arrived safe and sound. Hope you enjoy it.

My book went in the mail today.

I'm a bit slow, but here's my book from Peachy which arrived last weekend...

It's Tyrannosaur Canyon by Douglas Preston, another awesome looking wish list book! :drool:



Thanks!! :D

I sent The Ice Queen by Alice Hoffman which was received a couple of days ago.

Once more with pictures!

Two more wish list books! :bananadance:

From chambejd...



And from FranciJo...



Thanks a bunch ladies!

So we're still waiting on Bibliocrates book this month... I will PM her!

Bibliocrates told me should would get your book out.. so let me know when you get it!

Still no book from bibliocrates yet?

OK its been a month since she initially told me she would be getting out your book.. YOL have you received anything yet?

I know I mailed your book late yourotherleft, and I sincerely apologize... but I'm beginning to worry now since you still haven't received it. My Chapter 2 book to peachy93722 arrived safely and I believe I mailed them on the same day.

:shrug: I don't recall getting any more Chapter 1 books than I have listed here. I suppose it's possible that I could have received it and forgotten to journal it before putting it on my bookshelves, but that would be pretty unlike me (though it has happened once or twice before!). I hope the postal system didn't eat it! :unsure:

If it doesn't arrive in another week I will send you a replacement... I checked around my desk, as things tend to get buried, and it's not here... plus, I remember mailing it together with the Chapter 2 book. I really hope it arrives... it was on your wish list!

Good news, Bibliocrates! It came with today's mail. After fighting with the packaging for about 15 minutes (er, wow, you're a good packager...or I'm an inept opener), I see another wishlist book - Before You Know Kindness. Thank you! :)

So this month is DONE! Thanks everyone!

:phew:

I wrap that way because I know how damaging sending a book via post can be... I can't tell you how many books have arrived opened and wet... a trick: stick a knife in the edge crease, breaking through the tape, and cut along the edge, that way you can slide the book out!

Enjoy!
