I'll post my selections / additions soon. Thank you so much!

Trying to see if there is any interest in a General Literature Virtual Bookbox with books like:

The Elegance of the Hedgehog
The Time Traveler's Wife
River, Cross My Heart
The Elephant Keeper

I would ask each participant to offer 2 books as seed for the box to start.(You may seed with more than 2) After you commit to joining the box you would send me the titles/author/BCID numbers of the seed books. You will hang onto your two(or more) seed books until such time as they are selected from the VBB.

I would ask all participants to be timely in mailing out their books once they are selected-within 6 weeks.

Each person will have 5 days to make their selections and additions. Players who do not respond in time will be bumped to the bottom of the list. After 2 times with no response they will be removed from the rotation and their books removed from the list unless they contact me about getting back in the rotation.

Your 2 submitted books are for seed so if you select 2 books on your turn you will need to add 2 new books(not counting your seed books)

You may add extra books to the list anytime-just let me know.

I hope everyone has fun with the box and finds some great new reading material.

New ACTIVE Bookcrossing Players Welcome anytime!! I reserve the right to remove players who are no longer active on Bookcrossing from the players list.

I will be away from home visiting my parents and taking a little vacation with my sister so I am going to put this VBB on a little pause and will resume when I get back home. The list will move to the 1st person on October 27, 2017.
This will allow me time and also time for everyone to read some more wonderful books to include in the VBB when it restarts.

Thanks for making this VBB such a success and see you in October!
