Jane (PS) | 24347 comments LOL - has anyone noticed that there is a book soon to be released by Dreamspinner Press called When Dachshunds Ruled the Serengeti! Hope this one comes up free!

Fran | 12286 comments Did we come to a consensus yet?

Should I post a poll LOL? Hey, if I did a poll for the whole group maybe more members would join us next month....

That's a great idea!

Breann | 398 comments Especially since we are unable to make a decision :)

Are you thinking to make a poll with the latest freebies?


message 55: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments This is using that poll app?


message 56: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments I think it was just whether we read:
Blue Notes
After Ben
Good Bones
and MKat's suggestion, City Mouse?

I guess that makes more sense to use the one we've already suggested LOL. Lord knows we don't need more title thrown our way! :D


message 58: by Fran, Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Fran | 12286 comments How about the following freebies for consideration-

Please feel free to add any past freebies you want to be considered. I will post the poll tomorrow morning.

Blue Notes
After Ben
Good Bones
Honor C

Let's consider City Mouse for August, maybe a mix of free and not-free for August.

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments I missed all the freebies except Honor C so it makes little difference to me :)


message 60: by Fran, Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Fran | 12286 comments Do you have any others you want to add Jane? Any past freebies we might have?

You bought Good Bones, I think, so that counts since you have it :)

I'm late to the discussion as usual...wish I could get my notifications working right!!! Anyway, I did get Honor C - Kat let me know, and I actually saw the tweet myself (stranger things have happened, but not very often)! The poll sounds like a great idea to me, since we're so indecisive when we just discuss it :P


message 63: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments I can never remember what was free and what wasn't. All I'm sure about is that I keep missing (bar Honor C) the recent ones :( LOL...

MountainKat | 31790 comments I missed the discussion, was away from the computer this evening but a poll sounds good. I think our problem is that we are all too nice! =P


message 65: by Fran, Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Fran | 12286 comments The poll is up!


message 66: by Fran, Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Fran | 12286 comments So much fun making it!

Maybe we should do that every month. Whoever wants to can post 2 choices to be added to the poll. We can get a nice list going that way.


message 67: by Fran, Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Fran | 12286 comments Post their choices in the current buddy read thread towards the end of the month and I will compile the list and create a poll for the next month.


message 68: by Fran, Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Fran | 12286 comments The end date for the poll has changed. It is now May 25th. That way there is time to get book if needed and place it on appropriate shelf before PIFM begins.

Fran | 12286 comments They seem to be in the evening recently, when I am sitting with Rebecca while she does her homework. I am checking my twitter and on GR so it's worked out well :)

Kat,

What did you think of Country Mouse??

MountainKat | 31790 comments Just finished it and was about to post on that thread. Basically, I liked it. Probably because people were complaining about the shortness of the story making the relationship seem unbelievable, I didn't think it was either too short or unbelievable. I am definitely interested in continuing with City Mouse!

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments I missed the DS giveaway, however fortunately I already own the book! Thanks for trying to keep me in the loop though, Fran ;)

I will try to think of it sooner next time, but it honestly didn't even cross my mind at first - too busy reading and chatting I think...

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments I tried to PM a few of you, but I think I was right on the time limit :( I missed you Breann - I hoped you had seen it in the MM group!

Thanks, Jane, I just got your PM but fortunately I've been sitting at the computer and actually saw the original tweet and got the book. Didn't even think to post it here though, so I'm glad you did! I'll pay more attention from now on, I promise!


message 83: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments No prob! I'm just glad most/all of us got it. I think this will only go until the end of the month, then our freebies will finish :(

It's getting cold here, so I tend to still be in bed (or on my way to work) when the tweets get posted!


message 84: by Breann (new)

Breann | 398 comments I got it! I've been on twitter all day :) But! She forgot yesterday so she said there will be 2 today, so stay tuned!!
