My Bad...So Sorry D.G. When I was doing my audit this weekend I thought I had relisted this property for sale. I swear I looked at it twice and thought I had done it, but somehow I missed it. It actually had been repossessed and is for sale. I have now made the changes.

Since you have waited so long, I will pick a book for you. I believe you only asked for one. Here it is Grave Peril. I love the Dresden files, it is my favorite series of all time. Hope you like this one

AND you can purchase this property if you would like.

This thread has been repossessed due to lack of activity from KIm. Please make all requests in the General Book Request thread.

The Sound and the Fury is now owned by Amy. Please make book request for that property here

Thanks Amy. I will make the updates that I need to, Tien in gone for the weekend, but she will make her updates as soon as she can. :)

Amy wrote: "Finished Aftershock: A Thriller and posted my review in the review thread. Do I need to post it here as well?"

CONGRATS!

Yes you do, Amy, as this is where we keep track of reviews for properties. Also, you need to set up a request thread for the property that you read the book for so that Tien and I can update the threads.

Charity wrote: "Thank you Lyn! Not sure what I will read yet. It's between Bridge to Terabithia and Dune."

I read Dune many moons ago, back in high school. Believe it or not, I have never read Bridge to Terabithia.

Charity wrote: "I landed on U: Book Club Fee -Ask a Librarian. Could someone please pick 4 books for me to choose from? Thank you!"

Here you go:

Bridge to Terabithia
Shopaholic Takes Manhattan
Dune

thanks for all of the updates, Dee. Your property is safe.

You are so honest! I would have just kept going and not even mentioned it, lol.

Unfortunately, Julie is leaving the game and has given up her porperties. Please go to the general general Book Request thread to request books for this space

Wow, that is a BIG book, Blarneygod. I read it in high school, though, and thought it was good.

Paola wrote: "Bea wrote: "Yes, and correct, Paola."

Thank you Bea! I'm going to try and open my thread: I hope to do everything right ;)"

Thanks for updating Paola, Bea and Welcome aboard Paola. I just checked your shelf and it looks great. Do you know how to set up a thread for your moves? The best example out there is Tien's ...here is the link. https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Have fun and let me know if you have any questions.

Paola wrote: "I'm in, even if you're all way ahead :D
This is my shelf: Paola (Yliharma)'s shelf

Next I have to create my thread to record all my moves and make the first one, right?"

You got it Paola! Welcome aboard, I will update the threads with the link to your shelf.

It's in Post #1, Part B & point 4, DG. :)"

Ahh! That thread is NOT in the Bookopoly folder! That's why I couldn't find it!

Can we add that to those tas..."

I have been thinking the same thing....wondering why the thread was in the general games location. I guess I forgot to ask you that Tien. Thanks for moving it.

Julie wrote: "On Jan. 16 I received some book choices and chose The Book Thief. I'm in a group that wants to buddy read it but not till April. Do I need to have 3 new nominations or can I switch to ..."

You do not need new nominations, Julie. Just pick a new book from the original ones. And you are correct, the due date is still the same.

Lahni is typically not on line on the weekends. According to the rules, she has 48 hours to answer a request (That would be sometime on Sunday, depending on when you made the request on Friday), but you might try sending her a PM to let her know that you are on her square. I know that the lands on my property have been so few and far between, it would be easy to miss one.

Thanks for clarifying, Tien!
