I have a feeling this book is very wanted with customs officials. This is the second time that I've sent out a copy of this book and it looks like it might be lost again! I'll give it another 2 weeks or so. If it doesn't show up by then, I might just have to go out and get a third copy.

After a long wait, fearing that this copy was lost in the mail, it finally arrived. It took about 3 and a half months, airmail. I bet all the custom officials read it in the mean time. If only they had cared to journal! Thank you grovalskii, I'll send it to the next reader as soon as possible. Hugs from Costa Rica!

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
Sent to E-sr, the next reader. Sorry for the delay. I sent this by certified mail, the tracking number is: RR039780611CR.
Sorry, forgot to comment! I did enjoy it, even if it took me some time to familiarize myself with all the characters. The plot is well thought, and you can see how the characters experience a change (for better or worse). At times, that change may seem rushed or forced, but it still seems believable. Overall, an entertaining read. Thanks for sharing! :)

I would love to thank Blackteiwarz for sending to me and of course thanks to Grovalskii for sharing the book with all of us.

This is one of those book rings I seem to have forgotten I signed up for :) but I was very happy to find it in my mailbox today! It has really been to a lot of interesting places already--Germany, Costa Rica, Spain & Portugal! How cool! I will try to get to this soon.
PS--After reading the JEs, I must add that his book does seem a little ill-fated. The envelope it was in had been ripped open and it was repackaged in plastic by the post office. The book, thankfully, was in perfect shape!

I've pmed Easterngirl71 several times but have not heard back. For some reason I have not been able to get into this one and didn't want to hold up the bookring. When I wrote Grovalskii a few weeks ago to check what to do with this book now, she said: "As to the book, if you still want to read it, don't worry about delaying it. I don't think easterngirl is active anymore. The last time she posted in the forums or wrote a JE was pretty much exactly a year ago. So I think it's safe to say you won't hear back from her. You can do as you wish with the book. Keep it a while longer and read it or pass it on. As far as I'm concerned, this was a bookray and it is finished now. :-)"
I will hang on to this a little longer and see if can get back to reading it, if not I will find a new home for it.

Hotel Galaxy View Tower in Nagarkot, Bagmati (incl. Kathmandu Valley) Nepal on Friday, September 19, 2014
Released 9 yrs ago (9/19/2014 UTC) at Hotel Galaxy View Tower in Nagarkot, Bagmati (incl. Kathmandu Valley) Nepal
WILD RELEASE NOTES:
I brought this book with me on an overnight trip to Nagarkot, a hilltop town with lovely Himalayan views that I took some visiting friends to, because I thought it was time for this book to travel. We had a lovely stay and enjoyed the sunrise over the Himalaya.
I left the book on the table in the hotel's lobby that's covered with magazines, books, and newspapers, right in front of the reception desk. Happy travels, little book.
