Glad to see that we've started!! :bananacheer:
It looks like I'll just be watching for a while though. Don't steal all the books out of the game before my turn, please!! :kiss:
(Caseyw, can you please add an "h" into my name... chambejd. Thanks!!)
caseyw - March 1, 2007 05:35 PM (GMT)
Sorry about that. Got in a hurry.
Ri - March 1, 2007 05:56 PM (GMT)
Oops! I thought this was starting tomorrow! I'll have to go find a book!
Ri - March 1, 2007 06:44 PM (GMT)
OK, I've selected my reveal. Who will be around for a good portion of the time to hold it?
nursiegirl42 - March 1, 2007 06:57 PM (GMT)

We were suppose to start tomorrow but some of us were getting antsy. :D
nursiegirl42 - March 1, 2007 07:22 PM (GMT)
Tonight is bingo night so I will be out of pocket from 4:15pm til 11:00pm CST. I've sent my reveal to three people. I'm probably not going to leave any moves since this is just starting and I'm not sure what's going to be revealed yet! But I will check in off and on til 4:15pm!
caseyw - March 1, 2007 07:25 PM (GMT)
That's fine nursie. We technically weren't supposed to start until tomorrow anyway so if you're robbed, I don't mind waiting.
Okay...the mouse avatar had to go. He was just too twitchy and started getting on my nerves.
Ri - March 1, 2007 07:26 PM (GMT)
Yeah! We have started! I've sent my reveal to a couple people. :wub: (Of course, I tend to be a swap junkie and check in *very* frequently! :whistle:
nursiegirl42 - March 1, 2007 07:28 PM (GMT)
I do too Ri when I'm home! I can't sit and read I get soo excited I dont remember what Im reading so I just sit and F5 F5 F5!! LOL
momx3lovesbooks - March 1, 2007 07:30 PM (GMT)
Checking in/out all day today. I am still debating about my reveal (got it narrowed down to 2 now..lol). So I haven't sent it to anyone. I'll be around pretty much all day today.

caseyw - March 1, 2007 07:49 PM (GMT)

I've PMed EllyMae to let her know we've started.
Sunlightbub - March 1, 2007 10:40 PM (GMT)
I'm sorry - I'm going to drop out of this one...I promised myself I wouldn't offer a TBR and I have nothing suitable available..Feel free to send me reveals etc though, then I can enjoy myself vicariously ;)
caseyw - March 1, 2007 10:47 PM (GMT)
No problem Sunny! I'll send my reveal to someone else over there. We'll miss you.
AM10000 - March 1, 2007 10:59 PM (GMT)

As soon as I pick out a book, I will send you my reveal.
EllyMae58 - March 2, 2007 12:16 AM (GMT)
I was very busy at work today, and didn't get online to check email or in here at all. I just got the message that we've started and my reveal has been requested...so here it is.
My book is:
A Babe in Ghostland
Megan Barrows has retired from a brief career as a ghost-busting psychic and now uses her sixth sense to fill her Seattle antiques store with objects with happy pasts. After once nearly having the soul sucked out of her by a malevolent spirit, she prefers a quiet life.
Case Lambert is a real estate prospector who restores old houses, then sells them for a profit. He has just bought a dilapidated mansion so amazing that he wants to keep it for himself, but the house appears to be haunted. Seriously haunted. A few inquiries lead him to Megan Barrows.
Megan at first refuses to help, but Case is a master of persuasion. Moving in to the mansion, they discover that one of the ghosts has a thing for Case — and there may be even more amorous spirits inside this veritable paranormal vortex. But it soon becomes clear that no one – dead or alive – can stop Megan and Case from ending up in each other’s arms.
xallroyx - March 2, 2007 12:24 AM (GMT)
I see we have started so I have sent my reveal to some peeps!
AM10000 - March 2, 2007 12:37 AM (GMT)
Should I take my turn now or wait for an update? :unsure:
caseyw - March 2, 2007 12:40 AM (GMT)
Give me a sec and I will update. Ya'll who are comfortable with updating please feel free to jump in and do so.

Lori Foster Two-ferJude’s Law
From the Publisher
There’s only so much frustration a guy can handle before he gets a little nutty. For Jude Jamison, his frustration has a name -- May Price. She’s everything the former Hollywood bad boy actor came to Stillbrook, Ohio, hoping to find: open, honest, lovable, and full of those luscious curves you don’t find on stick-figure starlets -- curves May doesn’t seem to appreciate in herself. Every time Jude tries to get close to the skittish business woman, to take her in his arms, she thinks he’s joking. Joking? Joking does not involve lots of cold-shower therapy.
Time for new tactics. If May can’t respond to his sly compliments and sexy innuendos, he’ll just have to spell it out for her. Jude Jamison is going to lay down the law for May Price. And after that, she’ll have no delusions about just how much he wants her...
Murphy’s Law
From the Publisher
Anything That Can Go Wrong . . .
Nothing is going to go wrong. Ashley Miles has worked too hard for her independence to let some Bentley-driving hunk named Quinton Murphy interfere with her plans -- or her freedom. Yes, the chemistry is phenomenal. Kind of scary, actually. But that’s it. NO emotional commitments.
. . . Will
But he’s SO wonderful -- a woman could fall in love . . . How did that happen? That wasn’t part of the plan! But can she trust him? Really trust him? The man is just so mysterious. There’s only one solution: put it all on the line and see what Quinton does when she tells him how she feels. And hope everything that can go wrong . . . won’t . . .
AM10000 - March 2, 2007 12:48 AM (GMT)
Cool. :) I don't think I have either of those... :lol:

Rebecca, you're up next. Do you want to steal or have someone reveal?!
happybunnygirl - March 2, 2007 01:05 AM (GMT)
Hi! Could I be added to this? If not, that's ok...I'm still a noob so I'm learning as I go. :)
caseyw - March 2, 2007 01:07 AM (GMT)
Be glad to have you join us, happybunny. I'll add you when I do the next update.
rebeccaljames - March 2, 2007 01:08 AM (GMT)
I would like for Chambejd to reveal please.
caseyw - March 2, 2007 01:14 AM (GMT)
Not sure when chambejd will be back on.
catsalive - March 2, 2007 01:35 AM (GMT)
I have chambejd's reveal. Should I show it now? Never had this responsibility before.
And, can I forward it to here from my inbox? or what?

Yes please post it. I find it easiest to hit the quote button on the message and copy the info for the book. If there's a pic of the cover you get all the code and stuff. If you are unsure, send it to me in a PM and I can post it for you.

Message Forwarded From chambejd
Me Times Three by Alex Witchel (TBR)

Sandra Berlin's got it all. She's living in Manhattan and climbing the editorial ladder at ultrachic fashion magazine Jolie! and she's newly engaged to her high school sweetheart, Bucky Ross. Bucky's her knight in shining WASP armor: ad executive and descendant of Betsy Ross, with whom she'll live in suburban Tudor splendor and have beautiful children. At least that's the plan. Until Sandy meets Bucky's other fianc←e. Who tells her about the third.
Sandy's heartbreak, betrayal, and the excruciating blind dates that follow paint a shrewd, comic, dead-on portrait of the suddenly single life and remind us that even when fantasy crashes head-on into hard reality, love can still surprise us in the most unexpected ways. |
Thanks, caseyw. It works.

I'm sorry. I just realised there is a separate thread. I'll try to remember that when it comes to my turn. Or do I post it in both places?
