with 'Lie with Me' by Sabine Durrant ordering it for you locally...can you PM me your address?
and... If struggling to tag me, happy for anyone to tag Lady_Indigo instead of me this round as she's just sent me 'The Testaments' by Margaret Atwood without tagging me, so I feel like I have been tagged in a way...!
Decided to give this a whirl and see if it takes off!
- Make sure you have the sort options set to "Flat - Latest First" so you can see who is next in line to be tagged. - Simply check their Wishlist, and if you have a book that features there, and are happy to pay the postage to send the book to them, tag away!
- Title your post with "I tag <member name>" - Before Tagging, please ensure your Wishlist is up to date. - Please also state whether the book you are Tagging with is TBR or whether it is ready to send straight away. - PM the BCer for their address.
- If you want/need to say something here besides tagging somebody or just want to bump the thread, please title your post "still <member name> to be tagged" or something similar.
- Rather than posting in this thread to thank people when your book arrives, please use the following thread instead: http://www.bookcrossing.com/---/459720
- Should you wish to include a link to this thread in your journal entry, please copy and paste the following HTML text: sent/received this book in relation to the <a href=http://www.bookcrossing.com/forum/10/516705/> <font color="blue"> <b>Australasia Wishlist Tag Game</b> </a> <font color="black">
Sounds a trifle complicated - I'll wait and see what happens but it sounds a good scheme once I see how it works. Thanks for alerting me directly as I seldom trawl through the threads.
Is there a way to follow this thread in case you have a book that someone is after
Unfortunately there is no way to follow a thread in BookCrossing. It might be worth PMing the BCer you have in mind, asking them to PM you if they Tag someone. Other than that, its just a case of keeping a close eye on the thread. The more Wishlists you check, the longer your own will get!
It's yet to be read, but am between books at the moment and hadn't decided on the next one yet, so this will now be it! Should be on its way to you shortly :-)
Most of my books are in storage, but I'm 99% sure that I have a Phryne Fisher book that LadyIndigo would like. I'll confirm when I get home tonight and check my bookshelf.
Just checking the journal notes and find I have had this one on the shelf for 5 years. So thanks for this game as it is a godsend in that it is making my reading choices for me and moving those books that have been languishing for too long to the imminent reading stack:)
This is my sisters book but I don't see that she will have any trouble in giving it to me to send on to you. I'm so glad I have something you wish for.
*If you can't find anything on my wishlist, I have a note on my profile about other things at the bottom, although please ask me as I might have already read it (:*
With We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves by Karen Fowler
It arrived today as part of the Southern Cross Book Exchange so I will read it in the next fortnight and then post it. Hope that is Ok and within the rules. I will PM you for your address Keeta
It means no one has replied to tag you. I guess the pool of people playing is quite small in this Pacifica version of the game. You could think of adding more books to you wish list in case that helps move the game alone.
It's read and ready to post For any NZ BCers who may be able to tag me, I'm here for another 5 days so can be sent a Tag book here in Tauranga. Otherwise it's a Pacific Island address for Tagging me (either Samoa or Kiribati).
with (as yet unregistered) Cockroach by Rawi Hage. I'll get it in the post tomorrow and hopefully it'll get to Tauranga before you leave. Please PM me the Tauranga address.

Just skip me and randomly choose someone else to get it going again.
anyone able and willing to Tag Edwardstreet??
I will break the deadlock and tag Edwardstreet with The Hired Man by Aminatta Forna. Book will be coming via BetterWorld Books. Enjoy. I will PM with BCID. Enjoy :)
Does anyone have ladyindigo's address as she has not replied to my pm? I do have an address from a few years back but just want to be sure it is current.
.. Please remember the following to avoid confusing others:
- Title your post with "I tag <member name>" - Before Tagging, please ensure your Wishlist is up to date. - Please also state whether the book you are Tagging with is TBR or whether it is ready to send straight away. - PM the BCer for their address.
- If you want/need to say something here besides tagging somebody or just want to bump the thread, please title your post "still <member name> to be tagged" or something similar.
I'm happy to be tagged with anything from my wishlist so long as you are happy for me to take a veeerrrrrrrrrrrrrry long time reading it (my TBR pile is enormous and my life is extremely busy right now and doesn't leave much time for reading anymore - it will calm down, but at the mo I'm go, go, go).
I tag book-a-neer with The Testament of Mary by Colm Toibin. Just need your address and I will post in the next few days. For an added bonus it is also signed by the author :)
