Meet & Greet Challenge Round 3, Apr-May: READING!

[Shelby]

Done! At least I'm pretty sure I got through everyone in Group 3. If I missed you, please let me know. :D

[Ezi]

Everyone from Group 2 should have their picks from me. If not, let me know.

[Rachel-RN]

Everyone from Group 2 should have picks from me as well. Let me know if you don't have them:-)

[Jane (PS), Moderator]

Wow - you girls are FAST!

[*Nan*]

I have made all my picks for group 3. If you didn't get picks from me let me know.

[Desperado]

I signed up for this challenge this morning and completely forgot about it that quick. When I logged onto GR and saw I had 4 emails, I was like "WHAT THE FRENCH TOAST IS GOING ON HERE?!!?"

Also, I love how I've had on my "meet and greet" shelf for 3 rounds and yet I still keep finding ways to get around reading it. I DO want to read Forbidden but I'm sooo incredibly terrified as I keep hearing that it's gonna make me depressed as hells when I finish it. TOO MANY EMOTIONS!

I'll get started on my picks now.

Hi Nan, it doesn't look like I've got my picks from you yet

Hahaha! I do that as well. I know I need to knock some of my books off, but I squirm away from a couple of them each time ;)

I think we all do that,lol. SOme books you just definitely need to be 'in a mood' to read :)

[~Melissa~]

Ok - I think I sent like 3 sets of picks - I know I'm a total wimp tonight. I'm off to bed. I'll send more to the lovelies in Group 3 tomorrow....promise :)

To be honest, I don't think I'll EVER be in the mood to read it. One of my bestfriends tried to gift it to me once and I was like "Um....thank you but I must decline. I've got to go.....do some stuff....that involves other stuff....that you bake into stuff..."

[~KarenH~, Moderator]

Jane (and anyone else in group 1 having the same problem I had), Aarati's link in group 1 isn't working - and the link from her initial post isn't either. The only way I could get to her shelf was to go to her profile and pick it from the list of bookshelves there...

[MountainKat, Moderator]

I'm done with my picks for group 3 too! I even double checked, but if I missed you let me know!

[*Nan*]

Nikita- I know someone else with the same name and sent the picks to her by accident. I resent your picks so hopefully you got them now.

[Margaret]

Hi, I am done with my picks for Group 2!! If you haven't received your picks from me, please let me know!

[Desperado]

I think I've got everybody for Group 3. Great day in the morning, that was a lot of work.

[Lizz (Beer, Books and Boos)]

I am done with group two picks send me a PM of I missed you

[Penney]

Thanks Jane for the positive energy. I waited out the power outage and then stay up waayyyyy past my bedtime to finish. I just can't seem to help myself ;-)

I've finished my picks for group 2, let me know if you didn't receive your picks my me. Night night all!

Thanks Karen - I'll check it out :) Just have to go a grocery shop first...

[~KarenH~, Moderator]

I've finished my picks for group 1 - if anyone didn't get picks from me, just let me know and I'll fix it!

[Turtlecollector Dennis]

I've finished my picks for Group 2!

[Kim]

I am done picking for group 1. Let me know if I missed you!

[Becky]

I'm finished picking for group 1, too. If I missed someone, let me know!

[Kristina Simon]

I'm finished choosing for group 1, too. If you didn't get picks from me, please let me know!

[UnusualChild{beppy}]

all my picks for group 3 should be sent, so if you didn't receive anything from me, just let me know. on a side note, captcha was a real pain my last 10 messages. I had to redo some of them a couple of times.

[Becky]

I hate captcha. Is that an "m" or "rr" smeared together? Capital "I" or lower case "l"? The first handful I got were numbers, which were much easier to read. Then I took a little break, and when I came back it was the dreaded letters.

[Aarati]

I'm going through group 1 now!

The link to Aarati's bookshelf has been fixed in msg 3 :)

[Ella]

I just finished my picks for group 2, if you didn't get any please let me know. Also, if you need me to re-pick because you have already picked the ones I choose send me a PM.

Ps: I hate captcha, too. the ones with letters are the worst.

[Isha]

I'm done with my picks for group 3. Let me know if I missed anyone.

[Karla]

Group 1, I will try to get my picks for you later today(it's 1am now).

[Elizabeth]

Group 1, I'm halfway through my picks!

[Hadley]

Hey group 3, will do my picks tonight. Can't wait.

[Aarati]

I finished my picks for Group 1. Please PM me if I missed someone or any of you want re-picks. I hope you enjoy your books! :)

[Lauren]

Thanks to everyone who has picked for me already - wow, you are fast!

My picks for Group 1 will be done tonight when I get home from work.

[Jane]

I'm done for group 2. If I missed anyone or someone needs other picks let me know.

[Debbie (Doc)]

I finished for group 1. Please PM me if I missed you or if you need re-picks.

Happy Reading!

[Skandia]

I have finished picking for group 1. Let me know if I have missed someone.

[Ty]

man you guys are fast. I'll be doing group 1 today... sporadically. I called in sick - not because of MnG, tho I wish - so I should be done by the end of the day.

do you feed a cold and starve a fever or backwards? I always forget which is which... blegghhh

[~Leslie~]

Yes, feed a cold and starve a fever. Chicken soup is the best. It has natural healing properties that help when you are sick.

[~Leslie~]

I am working on Group 3. Will probably finish with picks tonight.

Another thing that helps, even if it's a fever, bundling yourself up really good and sweating it out. Combine that with soup (for a cold) and tea (even with a fever) and you'll be good as new in no time. I also have home remedies that work better than most medications.

[Gianna]

I sent back picks to those who sent me picks. Will work on the others in a few minutes. I love my picks!

What Leslie said BUT with both drink lots of fluids!! Flush all those nasty toxins out. Hope you feel better soon.

[Fran, Moderator]

I'm done choosing for Group 1....if I've missed anyone please let me know :)

Thanks to everyone who has sent me picks so far...they all look so good!

[Zara's Corner]

I've finished my picks for group 2. Sorry it took so long. I was having to do them in between attending to my daughter who has torn the cartilage in her right knee.

Drink lots of HOT fluids...the heat helps to prevent the germs from just sitting there and multiplying more! Feel better!

[Nadine Bookaholic]

Hi Group 3,
I hope to have all of my picks out by tomorrow morning.

Happy Reading everyone!
