I will go through my shelves tomorrow and add a list of "starter books" for this as well. I'm just to pooped tonigt to do it now. Been a long day. :)
ETA: Quick Question ...... is anyone counting authors in anthologies or other such collection of short stories? I ask as I have quite a few of these on my shelf and they are a fun way to sample a new author.
I'll refrain from adding any of these to the box , until a decision is made one way or the other. :shrug:

That's cool. I totally understand.

redhot-brat - March 25, 2008 09:00 PM (GMT)
Oops - Sorry about that Smilin'. I realized after I did the update with all the new books that I forgot to add in the members playing. I figured once we get all the books in and everything set to go you'd randomize the list for order anyway, so it wouldn't make a difference what order they were in now.
Now I know , so I'll keep them in the correct order next time. :giggle: :wink:

Hiya,
Joining in.
I'll commit to making the above books available, but note that not all of them are registered -- or even bought -- yet. Will make adjustments as I register.
elsi - March 27, 2008 06:06 PM (GMT)
Guys - I hate to do this, but I'm in too many VBBs right now and I just don't have the bandwidth to join another. I'm going to drop out before the swapping gets started. Sorry.
Smilin-Heart - March 27, 2008 06:59 PM (GMT)
That's ok elsi. Maybe in the future you can join us again.
Happy Readings!

Smilin-Heart - March 30, 2008 08:30 AM (GMT)
Only two more days to the picking can begin! There are a few letters that I need, but there are so many good choices I don't know where to start!
Smilin-Heart - March 30, 2008 01:01 PM (GMT)
Since we are about to get started with book selecting I thought I would make this note. On the Out of Play thread I will just edit the first post that I have in there with the list of books that people have selected. That way the list of books that haven't been received yet will always be first. Then when someone mails out a book they can just add a post to that thread that they have mailed it. And when someone receives a book they can add a post that it has been received. I will note dates mailed on the first post and remove the book from the Out of Play thread when it has been received. That way people can easily go back and see what books they have selected or need to send from previous rounds easily. Basically works the same as how other Out of Play threads. Just wanted to make the note on here in case someone wasn't sure how it worked.
Happy Readings

Smilin' .... since this would be the next part (or round so to speak) for this VBB. I wiped the old moves of who put in what to get it started. They're still on all the starting posts, if we need them, but then we don't have to try and differentiate them from the new moves.
I figured that is what the other boxes due at the start of each new round. Hope ya don't mind.If it's a prob PM me and I'll put them back. :shrug:

Not really mistakes, just confusions. ;) We all had to learn as we went. You should of seen some of the screw ups I made the first couple times I tried to do updates.
:unsure: What did you want to do about Lisabb2? She isn't a member of BookObsessed, so I'm not getting how she's going to take her turn here. :shrug:

Am I supposed to pick next?
Smilin-Heart - April 3, 2008 08:54 PM (GMT)
If you want to. For the time being there is no order for people to pick in. The only reason the players are listed as they are is to help keep an idea of who is part of this and who isn't. Maybe if the list of players gets bigger we will look at creating an order of play.
lisabb2 - April 4, 2008 02:35 AM (GMT)
I've got two books from the list that I'd like to pick. I've also got five I'd like to add to replace these two plus contribute additional books to the list.
My two picks are the Greg Iles and the Jeffery Deaver books. I'll PM the people!!!
My five contributions are:
Olivia Goldsmith - Flavor of the Month
