brewski - January 25, 2007 02:54 AM (GMT)
Offer up a title that is in the top 100 of one of the 2 lists below at the time of your offer.
I'll kick this relay off by offering the 5th most wished for title, Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk.

PM me your address if you accept this offer.

Sidney1220 - January 28, 2007 07:42 AM (GMT)
Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one who hasn't seen the movie or read the book...

So I'll accept "Fight Club" from brewski and offer The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini.

Please pm me with your address if you accept...

I'll accept "The Plot Against America" and offer the #12 title - The Mermaid Chair by Sue Monk Kidd. I am in the process of reading this, but I should be able to finish it sometime over the next week.

brewski - February 8, 2007 02:37 AM (GMT)
Replacing The Mermaid Chair with the #3 Wished for book, Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides. Actually, you can choose either title, it's up to you.

Please note that this will likely be sent by surface mail since it is a hardcover book and Canada Post is not exactly cheap :)

Anyhow, PM your choice and address on acceptance of this offer.

brewski - February 12, 2007 09:45 PM (GMT)
Since there are no takers for The Mermaid Chair or Middlesex...

Next up is the #48 title on the list, The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory.

lukutuoli - February 13, 2007 11:17 AM (GMT)
I'll accept your Philippa Gregory and offer

Salem Falls by Jodi Picoult.

Okay, I've just bought #94 Memoirs of a Geisha, so either that or Stupid White Men can be chosen (Memoirs is TBR but will post within a month for sure).

VeganMedusa - May 11, 2007 02:28 AM (GMT)
Since I seem to have killed this relay, am I allowed to offer anything off my TBR/avl shelf?

There are some unregistered ones on my bookshelf page as well that may be available once read.
My bookshelf

I'm not sure how I missed this one when I browsed the relays before, but I'd really enjoy reading Stupid White Men if you still have it.
