Welcome to Round 7 of the Mystery Virtual Bookbox!

If you would like to join, just let us know, you will be added to the bottom of the list, and then re-randomized with everyone before round 6 begins.

If you are already on the list, please check in and give any dates that you will be out during the course of play so we know to wait on you or not.

Let Shaunie know if you see anything amiss that she needs to check on.

Turn time is 2 full days (unless we've had dates from the player)

If you have any books with 2 stars this time (**) you will need to replace them on your turn this round (but not until your turn, someone might still want them before it gets to you!). Thanks!

Enjoy!

Looks good to me!

confiming and i still have those books so i s'pose it's right :P

Confirming! :)

Confirming, and the books are good!

I'm not down for any books, but I only ust joined so that's probably right!

Confirming! :)

confirming, and I have no books currently in the box! ;)

Oh, I'm glad I found this thread! I've been wondering if I owed a book to anyone, but I see my book is still in there.

I'll need to replace it this round, and YES I'm confirming, but please do PM me.

Thanks!!

confirming and I have no books in :)

All looks good :D

Great. And I hardly have to wait. :P

I'm here and I have 2 books I need to replace...

Im confirming :D

confirming

Are we really starting tomorrow??? :o :o

going to try to, we'll see how we look when I get caught up tonight on confirms. :)

Okay, I don't feel right starting tomorrow, still haven't heard from Famfatale, Suefitz, Danes, Irenic, FranciJo, and prolly a few others, and there are still quite a few books not confirmed, so lets give it another day, I'll PM those people, and see if we can't get a few more confirmed.

confirming, although I am presently in Denver and can't confirm or deny what books are where. But I think the list looks ok.

Tomorrow I will be special guest at Tamara Viehls 4th and 5th grade classroom at Smedley Elementary School. The students are anxious to see where their beautiful teacher gets her good looks.. (quote from one of 27 letters I got from them today).. boy, won't they be surprised... :whistle:

LOL, thanks for the PM Shaunie. I came last night, checked my books and forgot to post that I'll be here and those are the right books. Guess I had a brain fart.

I have a box in which I keep the VBB books. One book is Puppet by Joy Fielding. I think it belongs in this box, but I don't see it, unless somebody took it out and I didn't notice.

Sorry I didn't confirm. I might have to skip this round but I will see. Anyway, count me in for now, please.

Can I join this group?

sure thing Ramson!

Suefitz hasn't been on here since Jan 22, so I pm'd her through bookcrossing...

Hi! Sorry if I held things up! I've been away at a conference with little to no Internet access. *shudder*

I'm confirming, and I think the books are correct (they're in my drawer of "reserved" books, at any rate!).

When are we starting :huh:

I want to start now! :P

Fam!!! You're in Denver???!!!

Just checking in to see when we start -- I don't want to hold things up.

well, i still haven't heard from Suefitz, so I'll pull hers out for the moment since we dont' know if they're still available, and then go from there... so, we'll start tomorrow, or whenever I get to it tonight! ;)

I'm gonna be checking here at times, but could someone please pm me when it's time turn, since I'm right at the beginning (second one), so I don't hold up the line? ;)

The first post is all edited and ready to go! I've PM'd Tribe so we're on!

Skipping this round! :D
