message 1: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 59873 comments Where are you figuratively? If you were transported to the location in the book(s) you have been reading, where would you be, and what would you be doing?


message 2: by Karen (new)

Karen | 42 comments I’d be in London on the day war was declared on Germany. (WW2) 😳


message 3: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11628 comments I'm in the UK and I've just rescued a child from a shop window. She claims to be the Spirit of Christmas and had made me give all my shopping away :-/


message 4: by Esther (new)

Esther (nyctale) | 5190 comments My eyes went to visit her friend and found her dead. oh wait, it's not her...

My ears just learned that my father had a thing with my nanny when I was young.


message 5: by Sandra, Moderator (new)

Sandra (sanlema) | 11259 comments I'm in London solving a mystery with a very peculiar man, who claims to be able to always deduct what happened just from the evidence.


message 6: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15868 comments It's Saturday, people ;-) Definitely feels like a Sunday though!

I'm in Malibu, where I'll be tomorrow too.


message 7: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 59873 comments LOL! It's New Years Day, so it certainly feels like Sunday. I keep thinking tomorrow is Monday and a work day.


message 8: by Rusalka, Moderator (new)

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19203 comments Sunday here!! But I need to sleep and then I shall tell you where I am ;)


message 9: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 59873 comments Nighty night Rusalka. Sweet dreams.


message 10: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15868 comments Lol, me too Janice. I've had the blissful sudden realization that there's still another weekend day left about 10 times today.


message 11: by Sandra, Moderator (new)

Sandra (sanlema) | 11259 comments Lol. You are right! Well, I plan to be somewhere else tomorrow so see you then. :)


message 12: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11628 comments Late last night Pete said something about going for his sunday run in the morning. I said " but today is sunday". I actually had to ask Alexa before I'd believe him! The Christmas break always does this to me - two weeks with nothing to do but eat does odd things to the brain LOL


message 13: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 59873 comments So now that it is Sunday....

I'm at Teal Pond where the body of a young woman has been found floating in the pond. Apparently her murder was never solved.

I'm also in Louisiana where I'm hoping my body doesn't end up floating in the swamp. Someone wants me dead.


message 14: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2417 comments LOL, Margo! I’m right there with you…

I am also in Cornwall. Having lost one of my twin sons to a terrible accident, my wife and son have taken advantage of a unique offer. We can live in an incredible house overlooking the sea free of charge except for maintenance. A new beginning. Of course, it is said to be haunted…


message 15: by Jackie (new)

Jackie | 296 comments Happy New Year everyone!

I have just recently arrived in Masada and reunited with my brother. I'm pregnant but no one knows it yet.


message 16: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15868 comments I decided to add another destination. So besides Malibu I'm now also hiking the pacific crest trail.


message 17: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 19131 comments This thread got a lot of love on Saturday! lol

I am heading to a childhood in run-down public housing in Glasgow in 1985 with a drug addicted mother and a philandering father.


message 18: by Rusalka, Moderator (new)

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19203 comments I'm back in East Yorkshire with a brand new profiling unit in the police force finishing off a read from last year when I thought I could knock out 16 reads in two months (bwahahaha).

There is a serial arsonist, and a nasty person kidnapping and killing teenage girls. I know who the nasty person is, just waiting for the police to work it out.


message 19: by Christina ❤️M❤️ (last edited Jan 02, 2022 09:27AM) (new)

Christina ❤️M❤️ (christir1159) | 1 comments My ears are currently in Sweden in an "not particularly large town."

My eye are in Hillston (a fictional town) meeting a lady of the night that a dying P.O.W told me," she would kbow where the money was buried."

Planning to head to Malibu, later tonight.


message 20: by Vicki (new)

Vicki | 1538 comments I am in an empty ruin filled with Halls, Tides, Statues, and Staircases. I am making an inventory of Statues and studying the Tides. It is all I know.


message 21: by Marnie (new)

Marnie (marnie19) | 3258 comments I’m revisiting the Talamh which is a realm near Ireland. From a timid school teacher to an emerging warrior, I’m embracing this new me. I’m also embracing the hot guy teaching me ALL THE THINGS.


message 22: by Cherie (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments I am in Hawaii in my book but I wish I were there in real life!!!


message 23: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11628 comments I'm at a camp in Sussex, UK, in 1938 - I think they might have a bit of an agenda but the kids are kept busy so I don't really mind.

I'm also in ancient Rome where I've just met a gorgeous painter called Botticelli. I really want to drink his blood....


message 24: by Jayme, Moderator (last edited Jan 09, 2022 06:04AM) (new)

Jayme | 4515 comments I am in Kingsbridge, England building a cathedral and it is taking forever, but fascinating.


message 25: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15868 comments I'm still hiking the PCT.

I'm also in a remote Austrian-Hungarian mountain village, where I have to tend to wounded soldiers in a very primitive way.


message 26: by Marnie (new)

Marnie (marnie19) | 3258 comments I am in Three Pines again. Wanting to talk to Ruth about her wacky duck but all everyone wants to talk about is some crazy thing they found in the forrest.


message 27: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2417 comments Marnie wrote: "I am in Three Pines again. Wanting to talk to Ruth about her wacky duck but all everyone wants to talk about is some crazy thing they found in the forrest."

Say hello to Ruth for me,,,and all the gang.


message 28: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2417 comments I am somewhere in England. My three year old has been in a bad accident with her stepmother. She has made a miraculous recovery but insists that she has a new friend now. His name is Michael and we visit him, on her insistence, in a church where his likeness is on a window.


message 29: by Rusalka, Moderator (new)

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19203 comments Ruth has a wacky duck?!?!??!?!?!??!!!!!


message 30: by Lilisa (new)

Lilisa | 2770 comments Lol, Rusalka and yes, and you don’t know what you’re missing out on! You’ll have to visit Three Pines with Marnie! Marnie - hope you’re enjoying it there.

I’m in Hong Kong standing up for democracy and attempting to be squashed, in Saratoga in New York State as a 23-year old battling leukemia and have a superbly supportive boyfriend - wow, and in Delphi, Greece where I witnessed a killing - note, do not pick up hitchhikers - and now hanging out with the Special Crimes gang Andreas, Yianni, and Maggie - kalimera!


message 31: by Rusalka, Moderator (new)

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19203 comments As a past owner of 3 wacky ducks, I wholeheartedly approve. And am also very very happy it's Ruth with a duck.


message 32: by Marnie (new)

Marnie (marnie19) | 3258 comments Hahahahaha


message 33: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 19131 comments Why am I always so surprised when it's Sunday? lol

I'm heading to Baton Rouge, Louisiana where I'm a psychologist getting ready for my wedding. Unfortunately, teenage girls have started to go missing. Since my father was arrested for being a serial killer when I was twelve and six teenage girls went missing, this seems oddly familiar to me.


message 34: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 59873 comments I'm somewhere outside our solar system trying to save our world. I think I'm trying to save the whole universe. While I haven't seen any whacky ducks, I've seen a whacky alien who does jazz hands, if you can call them hands.

I'm also in the outer Hebrides on a remote island called New Hope. I think it's named incorrectly. It should be No Hope. There is an evil entity here.


Christina ❤️M❤️ (christir1159) | 1 comments I am in Maui just trying to make a living.

I am also at the university of California watching doctors practice face-lifts.


message 36: by Jackie (new)

Jackie | 296 comments It's 1942 and I am a Baltimore socialite working as an Allied spy. I'm helping with the French Resistance. The Gestapo wants to destroy me.


message 37: by Cherie (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments I am still in Hawaii. I live in a small village called Lauele. A Niuhi is stalking me.


message 38: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15868 comments I'm still going strong on the PCT.

I'm also in the US, a rockstar telling stories.


message 39: by Rusalka, Moderator (new)

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19203 comments I'm in Brittany and outside Essen in WWII at the moment.

Peggy remarked in another thread the other day about avoiding war novels for the past years, and I agree entirely regarding WWII novels. Every book I picked up seemed to be about WWII. I mean, I know it was horrific, but jeez come on. Be inventive with your horrific historical settings. So was trepidatious about this one, but it has an interesting spin on the setting so far.


message 40: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2417 comments I am shipwrecked on an island in the Outer Hebrides. Death seems to follow me.

I am also in a small village outside of London and am going on holiday to Cornwall with my dog, Horace.


message 41: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 59873 comments I don't know where I am. It seems like it's some kind of prison world from which there is no escape and there are monsters.

I'm also in a small town in Ohio where I'm being interviewed on the 25th anniversary of my brother's murder. I wish I could remember what really happened that day in the park.


message 42: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 19131 comments I'm planning to leave Baton Rouge, Louisiana today. I need to find out who has been killing these teen girls.

I will hopefully also get back to Round Hill, North Carolina where I just met a very strange woman who came into my office under false pretenses.


Christina ❤️M❤️ (christir1159) | 1 comments I am in Chicago learning about the experiment of my life.

I am also in Ketchikan, Alaska thinking about having a real relationship with one of the Badd Brothers.


message 44: by Roz (new)

Roz | 4526 comments I'm in Australia (Tasmania).


message 45: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11628 comments I'm a ballerina living in London but I've just had a fall which wrecked my knee and they say I'll never dance again. I have no money and noone to help me.


message 46: by Jayme, Moderator (new)

Jayme | 4515 comments I am hitchhiking around Ireland with a fridge because I made a drunken bet that I could do it in 30 days.


message 47: by Esther (new)

Esther (nyctale) | 5190 comments My eyes hve escaped and running toward... east. Where I am supposed to come from.

My ears are trying to convince the devil to do what I want.


message 48: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11628 comments More than 300 years ago I sold my sole in France and as a result of that I'm now living in 21st century New York. It's not easy as noone can remember me from one day to next.


message 49: by Rusalka, Moderator (new)

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19203 comments Lol Margo. I know how many tools you use on here, so please take this in the spirit it is intended as I am in hysterics.

Your soul, has been transcribed as S-O-L-E, which while isn't a fish in my part of the world makes me giggle. Must have been a fricking fantastic fish to gain you 400 years of life!!


message 50: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 19131 comments I'm in North Carolina. I'm hoping to figure out why an old woman doesn't want me to live in my new house. My husband died in it while building it, but that shouldn't cause her to try to scare me out of it. Also, what happened between my father and my new neighbor when they were younger? They have some sort of history that neither wants to discuss. I'm hoping to figure all of this out today.
