* I then send the copies to the first person on the list - he/she chooses a number of first pages and pm's the owner. He/she then replaces the chosen ones with other first pages from his/her own books. Then he/she sends the list to the next person and so on.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES: Just e-mailed the ten (scanned) pages to Vekiki, prints are following in the mail (I send her a bookray anyway, so this is convenient).
I made ten pdf-files, let's see if this works out. Not everybody has a scanner or is willing to type the first page/s into a word file....
Yahoo! All four of my books arrived in the mail today. Thank you Christina82 for such a creative bookbox.
Journal Entry 15 by Vekiki from -- Somewhere in London 🤷♀️ , Greater London United Kingdom on Thursday, July 16, 2009
Picked up in the post today - I recieved email versions a few days ago but my computer time has been limited as my laptop is dead & the one at work is shared - I'll go through them this evening
Thanks!
Thanks!
Journal Entry 16 by Vekiki from -- Somewhere in London 🤷♀️ , Greater London United Kingdom on Friday, July 17, 2009
I have chosen these first pages:
Canadian-babe #1 : Recieved 25/08/09 - Bones to Ashes by Kathy Reichs
Loveamystery #4 : Recieved 01/09/09 - Bachelor Brothers Bed & Breakfast by Bill Richrdson (and the sequel - Thanks!!)
And, obvioiusly, will replace them with Vekiki #1 & #2, which I will scan & send over the weekend (either post or email, I will check which savotar prefers as I have a parcel for her anyway)
Edit 25/09/09: Sorry for the delay in getting this posted out again - Savotar has asked that it be sent Snail-mail... and unfortunatly our Photocopier at work choose this week to give up the ghost. I've been looking for somewhere with a photocopy service, and today i finally found somewhere which was, unfortunatly, Closed! But i will go by on monday then put them all straight in the post.

Thanks loveamystery for the books...yes, that's right folks, books.
I was expecting one book, but when her package finally arrived in the mail and I opened it, I actually got 2 books!! The one that I chose the 1st page for was Bread Alone by Judith Ryan Hendricks and she also sent me the sequel The Baker's Apprentice by the same author, so I guess she wanted me to read both.
Thanks a whole lot loveamystery for sharing and thank-you again christina82 for hosting this fun VBB!!!

Hello! I didn't get the mail from arabd but he/she was kind enough to send me the scanned/pdf copies. Just printed them out and I'll move this forward asap! Thanks for including me!
Since Jneni is currently not well and unable to participate in bookrings etc., arabd has kindly mailed me the first pages and I will send them to the next person as soon as I get the address...
I am choosing loveamystery #1 and replacing it with one of my own.
The pages are ready to go to bananabrianna in the mail tomorrow.
Thanks for hosting such a great bookbox!

Bananabrianna has asked to be skipped. Pages are now in the mail to Rhonder.
I received the pages and BooksnBeer's address. They'll be going out in the mail today!
I received this yesterday and I am reading and trying to decide which one.... Hmmmm..... three are catching me, and my other half is saying no more books. ohhhh.... what to do....
OK - that was fun - it took me a while to decide.
My selection is:
Vekiki #2 and Christina82 #6
and I will replace it with Booksnbeer #1 and #2.
I can't wait to see which books this turns out to be. The suspense begins.
I will post this to the next person shortly.

I received the first of my two choices - interesting, never would have guessed.
Christina82 #6 is - The Secret Agent by Joseph Conrad.
I have read Heart of Darkness in school - maybe it is time for another classic.

I received the second of my two choices, it is:
Vekiki #2 = The Stars My Destination by Alfred Bester
A book written in 1956 about the 25th century and a very lazy character. I will definitely read this.
Thanks!!!

Received the envelope of first pages while I was away. I set it aside until I could look up the rules. Now I've had a chance to read all the first pages, I've picked out two:
BooksnBeer #2 and loveamystery #2
I've put two pages into the envelope and am sending a PM to Annimanni to get her address so I can send it along.

This appears to be lost somewhere. I tried to locate the first pages, but had no luck. I have decided to close this bookbox. And hopefully start another one up in the near future - keep an eye on the forum.
Some of you still have books in the bookbox. You can release them in some other way.
The book for which BCID I have used, will now be available for anyone who whishes to read it.
Thank you for playing
