I will make a list of the books that arrived in the box and enter what I've taken and added before the box goes on to rureading.
Thank you sooooooooo much, affinity4books!
I did list all of the books that arrived in the box in the journal that was included - there were 33 books all together not including the journal.
I have chosen 10 books and replaced them with 10 books - all of which are listed in the journal.
It was a wonderful selection - thank you sooooo much, affinity4books!!!
I am passing this bookbox along to rureading tomorrow at the Calgary Bookcrossing meeting at the Joshua Tree Cafe.
By the way, I guess it's true there is no such thing as an original idea. There are now *two* yes *two* books in this box where the poor victim drowns in a vat of milk.
Well, they say even Shakespeare was basically re-writing familiar stories...
Will journal again when the box moves on to NM Reader. Thank you for including me!
I will drop at the PO after work
Thanks for including me

And I've already been in contact with 6of8. We just saw each other at a BC meet last weekend, but she's suggested a trip to the Book Thing next weekend, giving us a reason to meet again to exchange the box. The things I go thru ;) Hope she enjoys the box as much as I did! Thanks for setting this up, Affinity4books!
She said to me that she had pretty much vetoed all the British mysteries when making her selection from the box because "you have to have some sort of criteria for making a selection." I didn't really understand her comment until I saw the size of her list. Wow! I think I might have 4 or 5 saved up -- have to go dig those out next.
I have sent a PM to Rhonder for her mailing info, so that this can be headed for Wild Rose Country (Alberta) shortly.

- Buried in a Book, by Lucy Arlington
I'll be replacing them with the following:
- Woof at the Door, by Laura Morrigan

Because these three books are somewhat smaller in thickness than the three I took out, I'm adding Going Organic Can Kill You, by Staci McLaughlin, as well.
I should hopefully get this box out to Ollie1976 today, 11/27/2013, but if my plans go awry, as they often do, it'll be Monday, 12/02/2013, when I can ship it out. But I promise, I'll do my best to get this out as soon as I possibly can.
Thanks for including me in this bookbox! I had a blast going through all the books, although I think Mr. Stephario almost had a heart attack thinking all those books were for me! (He doesn't understand the concept of bookboxes yet.) Mr. Stephario will definitely have a fuss when I tell him he has to take the box to the post office! {grin} Thanks so much. I hope to be able to participate in the next round too!
I took out:
50% Off Murder
Much Ado in Maggody
Murder in Spouters Point
