Yes, I think so, Nichole. They are connected by characters but not by stories and are stand-alones.

Great! Thanks, I'll join in then.
I'm wrapping the books now, but I'm missing an address. I have Kit and Jenny. Can someone send me the name and addy of the other winner?
That would be Nichole, and I don't know if she knows she won. I'll PM her, Dhes.
Lisa Kay wrote: "That would be Nichole, and I don't know if she knows she won. I'll PM her, Dhes."Thanks, hon! I'm hoping to make them all in one trip to the post office because my daughter mails them out for me. The other 4 are ready to go, just waiting for Nichole's information.
And gotta say - I apologize in advance for the wrapping job on those books. It was a battle between me and the tape and the tape won in the 1st round. *sigh*
Yay! Thanks a bunch! Now I just have to read 2 books to fit this one in for MM on the double-decker challenge :)

Books are sent and I have tracking numbers. Okay, I've PM'd the tracking numbers to Nichole, Kit, and Jenny, as well as Lisa Kay and Pamela, except for ShoSho who got a Kindle copy.

I still have QQ PP OO and NN to read !
You still have a few days! You can do it, LOL! :D

We have a Spoiler Ban in effect. There are 3 threads for spoilers, clearly marked. One for no teasers and no spoilers. The rest of the group is off limits to spoilers. I'll give you the safe link, if you'd like it.

I want to get into the book with a clean slate !I don't want to know other people's speculations ! I'll join the discussion afterwards!
I totally understand!
Heehee I'm thinking I'm being stuffy !
Not at all! Safe. You're not taking any chances!
Jenny wrote: "My book came today!!! Thanks. :)"Awesome! That was quick!
How did it come? Was the wrapping still in tact?
LOLOL!!!!!!!! I told you, it was a battle of me against the tape and the tape won.
I got my book today too. It was beautifully wrapped with only one tiny tear in the spot that wasn't covered in tape :) Lol, I'm just teasing you.
Awesome! So now we're waiting for Lisa Kay to check in. Everyone else has confirmed that they got their book today!
Jenny wrote: "You should've seen me trying to get the book out of the packaging. It was like breaking into Ft. Knox. "A job worth doing is a job worth doing well.
Or a book worth shipping is a book worth taping the hell out of :)
Yes, I got my book in the mail yesterday... which baffles me, as the library and schools were closed due to a holiday - but the mail is running? I guess because it was a state holiday?
So, everyone has their book?I'm very busy today. I have a card-making class, lunch out, and shopping...
So, when do you all want to start this one? In a few days?

I've got a date with The King in Caldwell, NY and will be otherwise occupied for the next few days.
I have a lot planned for this month, but I could squeeze it in next week maybe.
I have 2 team challenges ending next week. The categories are called on Friday, so I'll probably be reading like crazy over the weekend. Other than that, I'm available whenever. I can try to get a little ahead if I need to.

Me too !
Do we know when we are starting this yet? Just wondering if I have time to start another book :)
I'm staying out of it. No idea when to start! LOL!
Says May 1st? Are we still discussing it?
Discussing what? Start date or the book?Hey, on a side note - did you see the video of animals fleeing Yellowstone? Can anyone say, Super Volcano?
Start date ☺No, I haven't seen the video. Should I?
I'm fine with starting it in a day or two... or May 1st, whichever everyone wants.
Did we come to a consensus on this one? Sorry the date has been changed so many times. We didn't know when the books would come in and when they would be mailed out.
How about a compromise and start on April 15th?
Your B-Day? ☺
I sent them out as soon as I could.

UniquelyMoi ... So I Can Shine... wrote: "I sent them out as soon as I could."Yes, you did, Dhes; it isn't your fault in any way. And you were very generous and thoughtful in thinking of us. We appreciate it! However, we have moved it from April to May and now back again to April; I just don't want anyone to be confused.

No, I didn't mean anything by my comment! Honest, I shouldn't try to reply from any iGadget. I get frustrated and just send the shortest message I can.What I was hoping was that the books would be to everyone in time to start early, but then when I had changed the date, some of us rearranged our reading schedule, and I apologize for this confusion.
Next time I ask for books from the publisher, I won't wait quite so close to the release date.
Not a problem. We love getting the books.
So.........is April 15th good for everyone?
