Beth ’s comments from the The Perks Of Being A Book Addict group.

This makes me happy that my boyfriend and I like to drive on our vacations. We've never been overseas but when we go to DC we drive (it's about 10 hours)

The only time I've flown was from Chicago to Las Vegas and back and that wasn't bad at all.

Though I've taken the Greyhound from Arizona to Michigan and back and that was.... quite the experience

well 6 of them also work for my cleaning out the closet challenge so I'm prioritising them!"

Ooooh am I one of them? If you need to nudge me to read a book so you can read it for reverse, let me know ;)

Lots of time to plan what we are going to read and get to know each other!

Also a good time to see what books teammates have read so when we do the reverse card, it'll be easier to know who is going to read what. Isn't it just any book they read in the past or does it have to be during the challenge? I don't remember

How long is recovery time usually? You said several weeks but to me that could be 3 or 30 because I have no sense of time haha

I guess they listened to us when we said we wanted to be on the same team :D

can your doctor write me a doctor's note too? just kidding, hoping for a fast recovery and easy surgery!

I've been on teams like that too. It's definitely not as fun. But you got us so you're lucky ;)

I'm a night owl so I'm usually up until 2am-ish. I've been going to bed earlier as it used to be 5 am LOL. My work schedule is a bit all over (as all retail is) so sometimes I'll be on more during the day and sometimes more at night. But I'll be around daily.. multiple times because I have no life haha.

I live in Utah and I have a little girl. I don’t know what else to say now."

Hopefully you're chatty or at least okay with other people being chatty! It's so fun to talk about the books but also... well literally everything else there is to talk about! We have at least three chatty people on this team

Ora wrote: "Hi Beth! Have to say I’m jealous of you working at B&N even though I would probably spend the majority of my paycheck there.
I would say your boring. We had a lot of fun during wobble."

We did! And now it gets to continue here :D

Hi everyone! This is my second time playing. First time I was captain and this time I'm a co-captain!
I love in Michigan with my boyfriend of almost 5 years. I work at Barnes & Noble (Lucky me right? ;)). I'm pretty boring other than that haha. So excited to see some familiar faces and to get to know everyone else as well

I love everything about Manchester. The history, the "hard work" attitude, the blue collarness, Oasis, Manchester City, Noel and Liam Gallagher, just everything. I want to be there so bad lol.

Even if you're not into football (soccer football, not handegg football) if you are on my team, I'm making you go to a match for me :p

where in England are you living? That would be my dream but even just a nice long vacation there would be perfect

I've seen a couple of my friends say they're snowed in! We got some snow yesterday but nothing last night unfortunately.

this is the dream team!!

Ora wrote: "HI Beth!!!!"

ORA!!! Oh my gosh I'm so excited to see you!!

Hello UNO gods, can you put me on a team with Ora? ;)

hmmmm
something out of this world..... ;)"

I haven't said this in two years, but you scare me LOL

This is my second one! The first one, I was captain and I had so much fun!! I can't wait to play again as I missed the last sign ups

Tonight I'm finishing my last book and will be making sure that the total numbers for everything is correct!
