Thank you! I need to read The Dispossessed for an upcoming IRL book club meeting, so I'll probably go with that one.

Hi, CassieV! How about:

Scythe
Red Sister
Middlemarch

[CassieV]

Thanks CluckingBell! I think I’ll go with Middlemarch as I’ve been putting that off way too long :)

[Beth]

Hello out there! I landed on The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane over 48 hours ago, requested 3 choices and have not heard anything. Do I need to skip that space and roll again for that roll(#17)? I have read one book from a different roll(#16) and working on one from a third roll(#18), but I'm not sure what to do about roll #17.....roll again? Thanks for your help.

Sorry we missed it, Beth. I'll take care of it right now.

[Elvenn]

Hello! I've landed on And the Mountains Echoed. Would anyone pick some books for me from my shelf? Thanks!

[Jayme(theghostreader)]

Hi Elvenn
A Little House Sampler: A Collection of Early Stories and Reminiscenses
The Ghost Bride I read this and enjoyed it.
Murder in Mesopotamia I love Agatha Christie.

Enjoy!

[Elvenn]

Jayme(the ghost reader) wrote: "Hi Elvenn..."

Thanks for the picks! I've started The Ghost Bride, which not only appears to be a very interesting novel, but it's also in this month's Shelf.

[Bea]

Landed on Common Sense. Would someone please pick 3 books from my shelf?

[Lisette]

Sure Bea

The Bone People - sounds like it could be interesting
11/22/63 - this book has got a high rating
Big Little Lies - because I've been wanting to read this for a while

[Bea]

Lusie, this creates a bit of a dilemma for me. I own The Bone People but 11/22/63 is on my Wheel 2. Oh, dear...it is SO long! And Big Little Lies is on my Wheel 3, which I am not yet seriously working.

I just looked at my Wheel 3 and found The Bone People there, too. Since I am not yet working on that round AND I am trying to finish rounds 1 & 2, I will go with 11/22/63. Oh, dear! No more Bookopoly rolls for me until I get that book done. (Sorry for my thinking out loud on the screen.)

[Lisette]

Sorry Bea for creating a dilemma! lol Good luck reading that big book!

[Tien]

I've also landed on Common Sense, could I please have 3 picks from my shelf?

Thanks :)

Oh, Bea, 11/22/63 is SUCH a good book! Trust me, it looks Big but it won't feel like it... Highly recommended!

I hear 11/22/63 is about the Kennedy assassination.

Jayme(the ghost reader) wrote: "I hear 11/22/63 is about the Kennedy assassination."

It revolves around the assassination being a focal turning point in history as such but it is so much more! It's a time travel x horror novel though not so much of the horror. I loved it!

[Jayme(theghostreader)]

I tired reading it. I guess I was not in the right mood. I knew there was time travel involved. I will need to give it another try.

[Tien]

Do try again, Jayme, & let me know how you go:)

I really enjoyed it, too. It was a very fast read, for me.

Um, so, can someone pick for me? lol
Just didn't want this request to get lost amidst the raving for 11/22/63 ;p
