I am FINALLY ready for a new roll. (Got overwhelmed by work, started, restarted, and then restarted again my last book that I originally started back some time in March--I think.)
Roll requests for 5/16:Olivermagnus (1)
Sabrina (2)
Joy (1)
NOTE: I am headed out on vacation, but think I can keep up with the rolling until the weekend. Then, Cindy is going to help us out. So please bear with us!
Joy, I think you are the current leader so please go back three spaces after you finish your current book.

Just FYI, I rolled a 2,1 which I will note on my board.

I am confused-did you read #75 then go back to back to read 79? 76 and 75 are both crossed off on your board. For now I will leave you at 79, but let me know
I rolled a 1 today to land on 79, which I will read for my current roll. I will then move back 3 spaces to 76. I have already read 76 so I will read 75 to account for the backward move. Summary, I will read both 79 and 75, and when I request my next roll, I will be moving from spot #76. Hope that makes sense. If not send me a message and we'll work through it.

Friday will be the evening, so it will likely work out to close to 9:00pm Eastern. Sat and Sun will be a bit more "normal" timing. I should be able to do it around 2:00 or 2:30ish Eastern.

That's exactly what to do!!

My last two rolls were 4 and 6, so I have a special advantage coming."Your advantage is you may move to the next book tagged historical fiction that lies in front of you on your board. It must be tagged that way at least 5 times. This advantage may be used any time on your current board.

Thanks Joy, I thought so, but as you crossed off both 75 and 76 I got lost abit-
I am ready for a roll. Also my Porter Board is up in case I roll off the board (not really like it, but you never know 😂)

Should I have two more rolls?

Oops!!!! Fixing now.
I would like my next roll (1), please.Anita - I've just realised my last two rolls were 1, 3, so I think that means I get to choose someone's next move.
Joanne wrote: "I am ready for a roll. Also my Porter Board is up in case I roll off the board (not really like it, but you never know 😂)"You have some really good books lined up on your board, Joanne - quite a few that I gave 4 or 5 stars to, and even more that are on my TBR.
I've finished my #15 and reviewed it, so ready for the randomizer for that.I'm ready for a roll(1) as well, but don't know if I get it at the same time or wait for what the randomizer has in store for me.

I worked on it for weeks, once the rules changed-my first board was a disaster!
That roll 1) takes me off the board. As soon as review on my current book is posted will request a roll on the Porter Board. and 2) it was a special 4-4, 4 participation points, which I will use for my first Porter book. Indeed a very lucky role for me!
JoAnne! You made it to the ongoing South of the Border Caboose Party! CGI Tom and the Cabanna Boys all interrupted me during a very important conference call to make sure I knew you were finally shaking the dust of your Clerk board from your feet!

I agree with Hannah! Really good board, books I loved and books on my own TBR.
Little heads up for Friday (despite what I said yesterday):IF I remember, I might pop in on my lunch break at work to do the rolling. So, it may, after all, get done earlier than the evening.
I don't usually log in here while on lunch, but I'll try to remember to, so the timing remains a bit more consistent. I usually take lunch around 1:00ish my time (so, about 3:00 Eastern.)

Hannah, you will be moving Nicole.

Thank you! I think Nicole is currently reading #6 on her Porter board, so I would like to move her to #18 Girls Burn Brighter. I've not read this one yet, but I bought it a few years ago, and hopefully her review might help me to decide whether to move it up my TBR or not.

Wow! A Year in the Maine Woods
Anita, are you by any chance screenshotting our boards once we've finished them?? I just discovered the editing glitch that hit GR last month messed up my Clerk board post. It's about two rolls out of date, which doesn't really matter I guess since my Porter board is up to date, I just thought I'd check since I didn't think to back that post up and it's going to drive me crazy if I don't restore it somehow... might as well do it the easy way if possible!
