A Stitch in Time by Ian Murray-Watson - Starting June 5th 2015

[Sarah Elizabeth]

A novel about Nothing (and everything). A surreal fantasy in which sacred cows are sent flying in all directions - politicians, scientists, wind farms, supermarkets, even overweight opera singers (though they need a lot of heavy lifting).

There’s a strange blockage in the Time Continuum and Grandfather Time’s glass is stuck. It means the End of Time itself, and that can’t be good. The gods (a coalition government these days) don’t know what to do, and so they ask Astralia (the Dream World) for help. The Astralians aren’t much use either. They can send agents over here (it’s all our fault of course), but once they get here they can’t remember what they’re here for.

In the ‘real’ world scientist Tom meets Lucy, the girl of his dreams. They fall in love, but who are they, really? Are dreams the quantum reality that scientists say they can’t imagine? As Reality disintegrates, is there still Time to save the world? Is the answer always ‘Yes – and No’?

In Reality, Nothing is what it seems.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I can add you, but I won't be able to send you any books out until you've reviewed one that you already have. I think you have Revive and Camelot?

[Maria]

I'd LOVE to read and review this! Add me,please.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Added ☺ I won't be able to send you a copy out until you've read Ashes though because you've had it for 12 weeks.

[Maria]

Ok,but I'll need a few more days then :/ I'll try to review it as soon as possible :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

That's okay, just let me know when you're finished and I can send this one out to you ☺

[Maria]

I'm so,so sorry for missing it. You see,I hadn't sent you a pm with my email and choice of format so I didn't really know you'd signed me up and that I'd received the copy...well,until the day before yesterday when I was cleaning up my old mails and I saw From the Ashes pdf... :-( I'm so very sorry.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

That's okay, these things happen ☺

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Email addresses of those people not on hold have now been sent to the author ☺

[Siobhan]

how do i come off on hold?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

You're on-hold because you have and you'll be getting very soon. I can take you off-hold when you've read february 29th, or the starlight books when you get them. I can send the author your email address at a later date ☺

[Siobhan]

thanks i didnt know how to come off hold lol :)i thought we were meant to wait till july for february 29th ive been staring at it saying i cant wait to read you lol

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I know, that's the problem when we have more than one BR&R in a week, or when we have to sign-up for one early like with Feb 29th because of it being mailed. It makes it difficult to stay below 2 at a time.

[Siobhan]

thanks for explaining :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

That's okay ☺

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Copies of this have now gone out, if you haven't received yours, please check your spam folder ☺

3% (view spoiler)[ a girl having random dreams, that may not be quite so random. not really sure what's going on here. (hide spoiler)]

7% (view spoiler)[ story about 0&1. still not sure what's going on. (hide spoiler)]

[Sarah Elizabeth]

9% (view spoiler)[ very confused as to how all this fits together. (hide spoiler)]

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Okay, I've been reading this all afternoon, and I am still incredibly confused as to what this book is even about.

19% (view spoiler)[I don't understand this talk about complex Rabbit/Gerbil/ canary. Is this talk about worshiping a canary as the 'Original Tweeter' supposed to be a joke? I don't get it. (hide spoiler)]

42% (view spoiler)[ A white hole creates information? But white holes are theoretical, and spit out light don't they? I don't get it. I like physics, but this is going over my head. (hide spoiler)]

73% (view spoiler)[ is this supposed to be scintilating dinner time conversation? Tom drives me nuts, and not in a good way. (hide spoiler)]

[Maria]

Sorry for the late,Sarah. I was having wifi problems. My review for From the Ashes: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I totally understand what you're saying, I don't understand this book. At all...

[Sarah Elizabeth]

The whole way through I just felt lost! I don't understand it at all!

[Siobhan]

just starting

[Siobhan]

Its a bit confusing

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I'm kinda glad it's not just me, but I was hoping you'd understand it so you could explain it to me! ☺

[Siobhan]

hahahaha :) im a bit more awake now so it might sink in lol i was worried it was just me

[Paulien]

Where should we put the links to our reviews, in here... or?

[Siobhan]

i was very confused it is going on my re read list might sink in a second time

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Thank you Siobhan and Paulien ☺

[Maria]

14% and (view spoiler)[ I don't even know who these 'ThreeDees are?! >< can anyone please tell me? :/ (hide spoiler)]

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Maria wrote: "14% and [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ Absolutely no clue. (hide spoiler)]

[Maria]

17% (view spoiler)[ I think by 'ThreeDee' they mean our world. 'ThreeDees' are humans. Because our world,unlike theirs,only has three dimensions. So most of this book is from their multidimensional perspective. Interesting. (hide spoiler)]
21% (view spoiler)[ wait,he's not the Tom from her class,is he? Then how has he come here before? :-/ And is she the same Lucy from the first chapter? I thought she was human... (hide spoiler)]
36% (view spoiler)[ Er..who's Lucifer? I wasn't paying attention because I didn't know he was important :-P oops.. (hide spoiler)]
39% (view spoiler)[ ah. So he's from Astralia,Tom... (hide spoiler)]

[Maria]

47% (view spoiler)[ Oh my God,what's happening!!! This is creepy... Hermes :( !!


The Call?!? But he's- (hide spoiler)]

49% (view spoiler)[ poor Hermes >_< I think I'm gonna cry :''''( (hide spoiler)]

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Sounds like you're enjoying it ☺

[Maria]

Sarah,could you send me an ePub file of this? My Adobe Reader isn't working well. I tried to re-download the PDF file you sent me but no luck.
And I'm not quite sure if my ePub reader works... Anyways,I hope it does.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Done ☺
