I’m ready for a new roll please.AW, I thought I made it just in time but maybe not. I need to learn to write reviews faster.
Actually I’d like to add 2 of my reward rolls, to finish up this board soon.

WHAT!? *storms off and goes online to order more sage to burn - there is going to be a veritable bonfire of sage*
What happens to me now? *whine*

I saw your note and added your roll above, Nancy. I was a little early today. Will amend.

I think Tien may be leaving you to the fate of the randomizer, but just waiting to hear back to be sure . . .I'll give her the rest of the day.
Hugs!!!

Thanks Anita!

Oh no! Maybe Anita will let me transfer one of rewards to you. You could use it to get out of game-jail on your next turn.
Oh - a 3-1 - Tien gets to move me and pick my next read - I am currently back on Clerk #97 - about to read that book. Feel free Tien to move me forward which is actually back to Porter! You will be accomplishing both a forward AND backward move on a 3-1 roll! Another first! I am still burning a veritable bonfire of sage over Ursula this weekend.

My last two rolls have been 6, 5. After I have read my book, I'm going to read Hiroshima, which is #58 on Nicole's Porter board.

What a lovely idea! Thank you! I definitely need to be broken out of Clerk Jail!
Let's see what Tien does first. Besides - Ursula has already proven she can be evil ... who knows who she castes her eye on next - you might need them!
Beware👾

@Anita - Tien is in Australia - I think it is middle of the night there - give her until morning at least. I know from Buddy Reads we have done together that middle of the night EST was when we would comment back and forth.
Theresa, what are earth have you done to piss off Ursula? Lol! I might have to nominate you for some kind of newly cooked up award. Like Ms. Subdue Maturity Good Sport and Good Vibes Honorarium! Anyone give me a second? And what does Teresa get for her good sportsmanship and faithful commitment to our group despite Ursula’s bad behavior? Any suggestions? I say cabana boys massage for a start! Perhaps we provide her with a tiara and let her open up the next dance party! Thoughts are welcome for how to give her the most amount of support.
I just spotted this outside the window being attached between the Locomotive and the Royal Couch: 
NOT ACCEPTABLE! NOT FUNNY! (well... a little bit funny - at least it is gold).
No paddy wagon cars on this train! URSULA! ENOUGH!

Oh, don't worry. I thought you had the automatic backward move, but 3-1 is a GOOD one. I'm sure Tien will be nice and move you ahead. Just make sure she knows where you are currently.
I'm ready for my next roll!(1)Thank you.
*whispers* maybe you shouldn't have called her Ursula, Theresa... I've messaged Anita but I'm sure I've got this right - can move you up to 15 spaces and I've picked 8. Miss Flibbertigibbet and the Barbarian (11 spaces) for you. I mean, that title!! I coudn't resist EVEN if that moves you 1 space ahead of me, d'Oh!
FYI: local time I'm posting this is 9:25am FriYAY 🎉

Oh THANK YOU! I am so ready to read that and isn't the title just the best! As for being a space ahead of you ... well I won't get to it for a few days as I have #97 Clerk to read.
As for naming her Ursula ... that only happened after she double shook me back to Clerk. If shechad wanted to be a Disney Princess instead of a Disney Villain ... she should have behaved like one.
She still has a crown 👾👑
If you hurry up, Theresa, and get back in the Caboose of Porters, I've got some of my current fave cheese but it won't last long!
didn't want to do it too big but it's 'Single Malt Whiskey Cheddar' and it is divine!

You temptress! That sounds divine! If you save me some I will make the bottle shop run on my way!

I have swapped the order of the books I am reading and am starting my book that once finished lets me back into Porter Caboose!
It just took the lure of that cheddar!
Can I have my next roll please? 2 dice again ( The Huntress was 549 pages).
That was quick Kate~I will have to check out your review

I am ready for my next roll (1), please.
I am more than half-way through my book # 68 and ready for my next roll (2 dice, Clerk level ... still)
I am back in Porter and the Caboose! Better be some of that cheese Tien brought left. I stopped at the bottle shop and got this to accompany it.
@Anita and Joanne - updated both Clerk and Porter boards to reflect read and reviewed my 2nd Shake it up - #97 Clerk board.I am now on #8 Porter where Tien moved me.
Theresa and I are back together again! Causing all kinds of mayhem but having a good jolly time with all the fine delicacies! One of the interesting things about this subdued challenge, has been that I put mini a few books on my TV yaar that were around or under 300 pages, and I was seeming to be so shocked every time. Like why are each of these books on my TBR in the first place? It’s not like I haven’t combed over and over and over with a discriminating eye! I have indeed. And yet this is so interesting to see where I’m landing. There has been no better clean out of my TBR with any challenge as there has been with this one! Some of these choices, I’m struggling to figure out how on earth they got there, and why they stayed. Many to all of them have been worth reading, it’s just been interesting eye view.

Luckily only a couple were duds, I was glad I read all the others.
I have discovered some great books on my TBR through this challenge, only a couple duds. This is one of my favorite challenges we have had here
In the wee hours, while Ursula the Randomizer slept, I left Clerk Board behind for the SECOND time. But before entering Porter Caboose again, there was a sage burning ceremony to calm Ursula's humours. 
A few
Smelt the sage burning from here! Happy to have you with me. I am reading the magnificent lives of Marjorie post, which is actually my trim number eight book, and after that, I will get to subdue number 11. Theresa might roll straight past me!!!!
