No problem!!! I thought it was me holding everyone up!

I just finished my Love book! Sorry for taking forever. CiCi, did you finish your Love book yet?

Found a different book for the stop. Will finish by the end of the weekend. Sorry again!!

I just checked on my waitlisted book and saw there's only one that was due on the 26th of Dec and never got returned. Ugh!!! I am going to the library today to browse and pick something else that fits.

I'm going to need a few days extension on this top too. I requested from my library a week ago, and it's still pending. Not even in transit yet, which is odd. If I don't get it by Saturday, I will go and just pick something up. Sorry :(

The last handful of times I volunteered, I have come up last on the random organizer list. It is just very odd that I end up on the exact same place on the list every single time, which is why I commented. It seems like the early volunteers always get picked, which is fine. Just good to know for the future..

This is the first time for me so maybe the names just seem similar."

The other three people have already written for the past 3-4 books. So out of 4 people, 3 are repeats.

Why do the same people keep getting "randomly" picked for DQs? Genuinely curious..

I volunteer for DQs

I requested mine from the library. I hope I get it in time!!

Ok, I will use that. I just requested from my library and I'm 2nd in line. I hope I get it soon..

Would One True Loves count for "love"?

Happy New Year everyone!!! Are we on the next stop yet?

Me too CiCi. I hope everyone had a nice Christmas!!

Sorry, I have not read mine yet! I am out of town with family for the holiday and haven’t gotten much reading done 😓 tomorrow I have a 3 hour drive, so hope to finish It then. Sorry again for the delay!!!

Yes, a pill would only work for flights. Cruises are all about the experiences on the ship. I enjoy them only when I am with a big group of people. I don't like the days "at sea." I tolerate them when traveling with a bigger group though :)

Aw, that's a shame Sammy. There's also drugs to knock you out during the journey ;P

Tati, welcome to the team!

I'm glad that got squared away because I was getting a lot of no's lol Sammy, can you message the mods to update?

I haven't really started either. I added one book because I needed to read it for two other challenges and don't have anything on my radar that would fit. I'm in the middle of a book for another challenge, and then I will get to the first detour. I was holding off too because I super rushed the first trip. Will be taking my time with this one :)

My preferred method is First Class on an airline. The fancy ones where you get your own pod!!

Ok, I messaged 4 people. If no one answers in the next few days, I will ask on my other team threads. I'm in one that's really active, so hopefully someone will answer from there immediately. Will keep you posted

Does anyone know someone who would want to join? Chie said she's still interested, but is a bit of a slower reader. She reads about a book every 2 weeks. I'm going to reach out to a few people..
