Use this thread to request books when you land on a Unpurchased Property. IF the property has been purchased, please make your request directly into the thread that the owner has set up for that property, per the list below.

Things to Remember:

1. Only 1 request per post (if you have rolled 3 times and therefore have 3 requests, then make 3 posts)

2. As you roll the dice and make requests for book choices for yourself, remember to take the time to make choices for others who have posted requests, so they can start reading

3.If there is more than one unanswered request AND the requests are from more than one player, please respond to a number of requests (not just 1). If all outstanding requests are from the same player, please only respond to one.
(ie. if there are 2 requests outstanding but both are from Bea then only respond to 1. However if the 2 requests outstanding are from separate players, say Bea and Charity, then please respond to both, if you have the time)

4. After you receive your books, if you intend to purchase the property, please list your intention here: Properties FOR SALE

Oo, Lauren, you have lots of mysteries I hadn't heard of. Here are 3 choices:

A Study in Scarlet Women
Medicus
In the Blood

Whichever one you choose, I want to hear what you think of it.

Lauren (laurenjberman) | 1217 comments Thanks Susan. I'll make my choice once I see the SRC challenges. I'm sure one (if not all) will fit, and I'll be back with a review of whichever one I go with.

Oh, wow! The problem with just having pulled things I really wanted to read onto this shelf is that they all sound good to me. I might choose Harry Potter, so I'll know what my grandkids are talking about when they visit in Dec. Except that there are 41 people in line ahead of me. So my backup will be Into the Beautiful North, since I can get the audiobook from Hoopla.

I just noticed something interesting, since we're using time stamps to keep track of our deadlines. My message # 38 above says I posted it at "Nov 15, 2016 05:18AM." And, while I am generally an early riser, I was NOT up at 5:18 yesterday morning. I wonder what's going on. Is it Australian time?
