Round 6 has finished and just in time for those steamy summer days, it's round 7.

New readers are welcome to join the Erotica/Steamy VBB any time at any time but you must be over 18 (see below). Also if you have stalled in the past, don't bother asking.

Here are the guidelines to help this VBB run smoothly:

1) I will be the keeper of the master list of books. Once the Erotica/Steamy VBB gets under way, I will send the list of books to the 1st person to receive the list via a private message (pm). The list is also in the forum (scroll to the bottom - I will keep editing as it changes)

2) Once you receive a pm from me with the the current list of books being offered, you try to make your selections and additions within 7 days. If there are problems, send me a pm and I will move you in the list or skip you if you want. If I do not receive a pm from you within 7 to 10 days, you'll be skipped and the list will be moved on to the next recipient.

3) Once you've made your decision on which books you'd like to take from the list and which ones you'd like to add, please send a pm with the titles, authors, and links for all of the books you'll be taking from the list and also for the ones you'll taking, so that I can keep the list of books current to send off to the next person.

4) Next send a pm to the person who has the book you want to read and make arrangements with them to mail you the book you want to read. (The person who has the physical book will be be available in the pm.) Please be timely in mailing your books out once your book is selected. (Although there can be extenuating circumstances, please try to mail off your book within two weeks from the date of the request.)

5) Once you've received the book(s) you've requested, please post to this thread to let us all know you've received the requested book(s). I want to make sure that people are both sending and receiving books :-)

REMINDERS:

****ADULTS/18 YEARS OLD+ ONLY PLEASE!! I DON'T WANT TO UPSET/ANGER ANY PARENTS OR GUARDIANS.**** ALSO, IF YOU'VE STALLED THE FIRST EROTICA BOOKBOX OR OTHER BOOKRAYS, DON'T BOTHER TO SIGN UP ****

I hope everyone has fun with this VBB and finds some great new reading material.

New players are welcome anytime on the condition that they have NOT STALLED ANY PREVIOUS bookrays, bookrings, or bookboxs.

If you have any questions, please pm me.

I will be taking a break on the book box until after the November elections (my husband is running for office) - unless someone wants to take this over. Please let me know if you don't wish to continue participating.

It would be really nice if this was started up again.
