Title: 'It's my Birthday and I'll PUF if I want to swap'
Description: Wanna play?


Amberkatze - July 7, 2008 04:57 PM (GMT)
Last year I hosted a 'It's my Birthday and I'll PUF if I want to swap' and I would love to do it again!

I love PUF (Paranormal Urban Fantasy) books and well I wanna celebrate with you all here too. I will be 30 this year so I have to celebrate with everyone ;)

I will be away on my birthday but have the 2 weeks before off work. So is anyone interested?

I would most likely start the swap on the 19th of July but I could start it later too. I will be away from the 29th.

Who wants to play?

Well, assuming some of the books that are en route to me arrive, yes!

KathyB - July 7, 2008 06:38 PM (GMT)
I'll play!! :silly: Your last birthday swap was the first time I'd ever played in a swap.

Of course they will! And if they don't you can pretend one arrived and play with that :giggle:

Oh yeah!!! I remember that!!

Now you are a swap junkie :giggle:

:bounce: I would like to play!!!!

elsi - July 7, 2008 09:36 PM (GMT)
Maybe. Do any of these count as PUF books?

Undead and ... by Mary Janice Davidson
Southern Vampire Mysteries by Charlaine Harris
Mercedes Thompson by Patricia Briggs
Dark Hunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon


Update -- I guess I should also ask if there are books/authors to stay away from because everyone has already read everything except the newest book out.

I'm pretty sure they all do.

I would be a probably, let me see how I'm feeling about my TBR Owed, because that's probably what I will be playing with is a TBR.

BooksnBeer - July 8, 2008 01:34 AM (GMT)
Please put me low on the list. I will be away until the morning of 22 July. I just got a new book for this PUF. :D

CheriePie - July 8, 2008 03:05 AM (GMT)
Ummm.... shall I make an announcement that this will take the place of the regular July Paranormal & Urban Fantasy Swap then?

I was just coming here to set up a sign up thread for it, to start on the 19th, when I saw this. :erm:

I am sorry Cherie!!! I thought the next PUF was in August :blush:

Are you mad at me :unsure:

I will move my swap to August so we can have both swaps. If that works for everyone.

CheriePie - July 8, 2008 09:37 AM (GMT)
Heh just replied to Amber's PM with some :whip: :whip: :P

I guess it's up to y'all then... yup, mine was going to land on the 19th as well. Same day as Amber's, and she's going away after. So if you want to have an excuse for 2 swaps, we can let one of them be pushed back to August, since I'd normally take that month off. This might be a good idea anyway since so many people travel throughout July and August (myself included will probably be away a lot in August). So having two might cover the people who can't play in the regularly scheduled July one... :shrug:

(or the real addicts who aren't traveling and want to play in both. :giggle: )


I'll chk back later today to see what you decide... but know that I can probably play in one on the 19th, but August looks like it's going to be a madhouse for me! :wacko: :P



Xeyra - July 8, 2008 09:45 AM (GMT)
I'd like to play in the July one, whenever it is. I will probably not manage one in August.

PepperVL - July 8, 2008 11:13 AM (GMT)
I'll likely manage both, so long as the August one is over before the 28th.

BooksnBeer - July 8, 2008 04:20 PM (GMT)
:evil: Yoo. I think I am becoming totally obsessed - I can do late July and mid to end of August.

ladiibbug - July 8, 2008 04:23 PM (GMT)
:birthday: Me too please!! :birthday:

Lemonitsa - July 8, 2008 10:02 PM (GMT)
I will only know if I can play in July sometime next week :)

terra57 - July 8, 2008 10:12 PM (GMT)
I think I can manage both even though I am far from totally obsessed. :rofl:

Marlene - July 9, 2008 11:18 AM (GMT)
Okay so if I am hosting a True Crime True accounts swap on my birthday will you all play? :hug: :lol:

Pretty please :flower:

I think I'd better chose another kind of swap ;)

True crime is not really my kind of book, but I'd peek in and tell you happy birthday! :birthday:

Maybe mystery...not true crime...or even chick-lit... :hug:

Amberkatze - July 9, 2008 02:16 PM (GMT)
I am happy to have two swaps but I don't know if I will have the time to host one in August....I am off work in July so it makes things easier.

Anyway I have pm'd Cherie and I will wait and see what comes out of our whipping *cough* I mean chatting....and then let you know who is hosting what and when :)

However I will keep taking names because whatever happens there will be a PUF swap on the 19th ;)

Amber - Please, please move me down the list some. :ph34r: I want to play but, won't have a computer or internet access until the 22nd. I will send out my reveal early - I already have a book.

Cheers!!!

Thanks kathy. Maybe we could do a True crime + Chick and Vic lit/Historical and Non Fiction swap. :rofl:
My favorite genres :rolleyes:

GateGypsy - July 9, 2008 05:10 PM (GMT)
I've finished all my vacationing for this summer (and as much as I love road-trips, I'm very glad to be out of that jeep!) so I'll be around for both of the swaps, whenever either happens to be. Feel free to put my name on the list(s)!

I have only one book I could offer in a True Crime swap - but, if it is your B-Day I'll play. :bananadance:

The list so far is just me collecting the names of who wants to play. It isn't in the order we will be playing. I have noted you want to be further down the list and I will make sure you are. No panic!

twiggywig - July 9, 2008 07:30 PM (GMT)
Plz add me to the PUF list(which ever)

Only problem would be that I'm going on a 'field trip' the 19th, with my local book club to the best used bookstore in the state of Michigan..WOOOHOOO :swoon: :silly:

twigg

Daelith - July 9, 2008 11:10 PM (GMT)
Put me down as a maybe for now. Pretty sure I'll be able to play.

shaunesay - July 10, 2008 08:23 PM (GMT)
If there's only one during the month I'm a definite, I was only a maybe if there were going to be two :)

sejent - July 11, 2008 02:10 PM (GMT)
:wave:

I'd like to play if we start on the 19th.

I am just collecting the names for July at the moment. I still haven't heard back from Cherie but there will be a PUF swap this month whatever or whoever runs it :D

teachie - July 12, 2008 04:55 PM (GMT)
I can't do the July one :cry: cos I am away from 20th- 27th . However I am in Canada from August and have internet access so would love to play then. I was sad at the thought I was going to miss out on a PUF swap but things are looking up if there is one in August. :wink:
Have a great birthday Amber. :birthday:

Amberkatze - July 15, 2008 06:50 AM (GMT)
Anyone else? I haven't heard back from Cherie yet but it will still be going ahead!

BooksnBeer - July 15, 2008 09:17 PM (GMT)
:D I have sent my reveal out - names are in my sig.

:ph34r:

Lemonitsa - July 15, 2008 11:04 PM (GMT)
