We all want to know when you receive the book, your thought and when you sent it on to the next member.

Remember you have five days, so please, please, please...unpack the book, read the book, and send it off. Don't sit on it for too long :)

Also, if for any reason, when your turn comes and you don't feel you can read it at this time, email me and we will work something out. You can ship it to the next person and maybe I reschedule you.

Any problems let me know.

And they're off!!
I'm very excited to report that the books have officially begun their journey.
Happy reading!
Casey Mac

Yay! So excited!! Thanks so so much for the chance to participate in this event!

I am new to the group. What are the lists for and how do you get on them?

Hi I am new to the group too! I would love to read these books and give you my impressions. I read 5 to 6 books a week!

I know I'm too late for this first round, but I would love to get placed on the next group please!

I am as well and would love to be apart of this

Hey everyone! Just wanted to let you all know that I'm still waiting for the book to arrive. :)

Hey Alice,
It went out Priority mail but that can take 6-10 days to get to you from the U.S. I hope it gets there soon. Thanks for being patient.
Casey

Not yet. Tomorrow will be a Monday. Hopefully it will be here. :)

Thanks for letting us know Alice fingers crossed that it will arrive tomorrow :)

Hi Alice,

I just looked up the tracking information. It arrived in Malaysia on July 3rd and has gone through all customs processing as of July 4th. Hopefully you will receive it Monday.

Thanks for being so patient. :)

Hey guys! So i've tried tracking the book online but Pos Malaysia's website is telling me thay my reference number doesnt exist! :(

I'll be making my way to the post office in a day or two to check on my parcel. Worried as this is my first time posting a parcel overseas. :(

Sorry for the inconvenience everyone.. The book in Group 2 is traveling so quickly.. :(

Don't worry Alice, I'm sure all will be fine, and thanks for letting us know. :)

As for Group 2 the book started in the US so it will travel quicker but will slow down when it goes overseas.

Amanda wrote: "does it head over seas at the end of the list derna?
not to worry Alice it'll turn up and you'll be the first to know"

No Group 1 started overseas and will finish in the US.

I've just managed to track th envelope online and it says "international dispatch" on 23rd July :) Hope it gets to Australia fast!
