I read uf and pnr normally.

Ok, I'll try that. Did you search umbrella on Google or inside GR? I'm struggling to find a title actually, but I'll make it, there's plenty of time! :) And Elinaly, it's ok if you do the "any book" this time, enjoy your holiday! :)

Shy - try searching either in Goodreads or Amazon with just "urban fantasy" - there are several book titles that come up with the : in the title. Hope that helps!

Example - Shifting Fates: Uncaged

Martina - I searched on GR and Amazon. Those are usually the first places that I look and then Google, if I still haven't found anything. Hope that helps!!

Received this in a review of free or on sale ebooks....

[Angie ☯]

Saw these in an ebook sale email today. The title AND the cover had the colon.....

If you are looking for umbrellas, Goodreads List has a list of books with umbrellas on the cover. Just type umbrella in the search box. It begins with Mary Poppins.

Should I update the spreadsheet or do you prefer to do it, Angie?

[Angie ☯]

hi Jackie - you can update the spreadsheet. I updated the page when I sent it to the Travel agent to ensure all our read books were listed. But that is the only time I would do it for anyone, unless asked to do so.

[Angie ☯]

Hi all!! How is everyone doing with our week in Labuan?

[Shy The WidowMaker]

Still looking for a book with more than one pet.

[Elinaly]

Heya all!

Ladies I'm back and oh how I missed GR and of course you all!
Nice to see that Russia is behind and we have landed in beautiful Labuan!

So sry Angie about the author, the book was Moon Called by Patricia Briggs - I updated the spreadsheet.
Thank you all for letting me get the easy way out this time!

[Elinaly]

We are doing so great on the leaderboard - I see that we must be on the 2nd position - awesome!!

Yeah, Shy the pet thing was difficult for me too, so imagine my joy when I accidentially found a book with two pets :D
But you know, since everyone else has been so lucky to find at least two pets, you don't have to worry and you can register any book for this week! Yay!
(I was so happy when I could do that last week, believe me!)

So if you register any book, we are already good to go - only have to wait for our next flight on 14th May! Yay! Yay!

[Angie ☯]

Welcome back, Elinaly!! You were missed :)

[Jackie]

Yes, welcome back, Elinaly!

Yeah, welcome back Elinaly! How was the trip? Sorry for disappearing but I took these two weeks to survive university in Japan, which is hard, really.
Anyway I chose a book finally so I'm ready for next week! :)

[Helen]

Welcome back Elinaly. Glad you had a great trip. I have completed the spreadsheet.

[Angie ☯]

Next flight on 15th May:

2nd place - Great job!!

[Elinaly]

Thank you all for the warm welcome!!
And Angie you are doing so fine as team secretary, that I don't want my old job back :D

Oh wow, Australia - I want to go there! (planning my next vacation... lol)

PS! My umbrella book done!

Didn't like it unfortunately.

LOL - well, we will have to take turns! I am leaving Saturday for a week of vacation....nothing like your fun trip, just to Virginia Beach! I can check in but I don't know how often that will be...or when.

I agree - I want to go to Australia too!!

[Angie ☯]

I have finished my umbrella, also....it was merely okay.

[Elinaly]

Oooh Angie, believe me - Virginia Beach would be SOMETHING to me :D
I have never visited USA (have been only around Europe), but I'm sure one day I get to it :)

Taking turns sound great idea ;)

[Elinaly]

Martina and Shy how are you doing with your umbrella-on-cover books?
One of you could read any book, if you can't find umbrella :)

[Dima]

Can I do the any book for the "Last Straw" detour? I haven't been able to find any interesting book that has that phrase in it. the one that has it is boring me to tears and I don't want to finish it.

I have actually never been to Virginia Beach - so it is a treat for me! :)

Hi Dima! We certainly don't want you reading something you aren't enjoying!! I don't see why you couldn't have the "any book" spot for the last leg. (We may all need the option at some point!)

Elinaly - any thoughts?

[Shy The WidowMaker]

Im reading for umbrella book.

[Martina]

I found an umbrella and I'm enjoying it - in the little spare time I have, sigh - but hope to be finished in a couple days max. Is it ok for everyone? Sorry for being absent and late lately! :( Promise I'll try my best to recover from the excessive amounts of things I need to do!
How is everyone doing? :)

[Angie ☯]

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well.

Only one more stop after we leave Alice Springs! Do we want to go for a First Class trip/round?

[Jackie]

Why not? We travel well together. :)

[Elinaly]

Yep - I agree with Jacki! Though here can be so quiet for a week we still manage very well to travel through every stop with max points and thats awesome!!

I'm with you in first class also! :)

When we all agree to continue, we should ask for a new flight-plan asap to start voting and planning and all such fun stuff!

Sure Dima, you haven't used this option, so I would say go for it! Register any book for the last stop.
Cough... though there is only one condition....
You have to make with us also next round around the world in first class.

:D Just kidding - its still totally voluntary!

Yep, its ok by me! Enjoy the book!
And Japan as much as you can! :)

Ready for the next stop and the next trip in First Class, always apologizing because I'll keep on being late, probably :(
The last book was really really nice, but I don't advice it if you tend to make the character's feelings your own: it has been both beatiful and terrible because I kept on feeling like the author, and this story is about mental breakdowns... Anyway, I think it must be a good point in the end, if it takes you in so completely!
Happy to travel with you again! :)

Hi Martina! Wasn't sure from your post if you completed the book for this stop? Let us know and include the information about the book, if you want me to add to the spreadsheet. Thanks!!

[Angie ☯]

How about Helen and Shy....are you up for another round?
