August Subdue The Shelf roll requests

[NancyJ]

Awesome. My previous roll was a 4, so this is a special 4-6 roll. I'm in no hurry for it though. I'm doing some sightseeing off the train.

[Joy D]

I am ready for my next roll of 5 dice! (5)

My last book was 898 pages: https://www.amazon.com/2666-Novel-Rob...

Rolls for 5 August

Joy: 2-1-2-1-1

So sorry Joy! I suspect Ursula’s got a hangover - she was last seen raiding the beer fridge in First Class…

[Joy D]

No worries. I landed on one I want to read. :-)

[Joy D]

I am ready for my next roll, please! (1)

[KateNZ]

Rolls for 6 August

Joy: 1

Un-freaking-believable …

[Joy D]

Ha! I am going to use one of my earned benefits to move forward 1 from there. Creeping along slowly, lol. I'll mark the change on my Board.

[Book Concierge]

I am just past the half-way mark in my Clerk level book # 82 ...

So I am ready for a roll of the dice (2 dice, please)

[KateNZ]

Gotcha BC. Nice one.

[Ellen]

I would like my next roll (1), please. Thanks!

[Joy D]

I am ready for another roll, please! (1)

[Sue]

I'm ready for my next roll (6)

My book was 960 pages: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/052...

[Theresa]

Looks like Ursula's hangover from raiding the beer cabinet in the Parlour Car is still affecting her job performance in a serious way. No one got shook!

(and I know I am poking fate by even raising it .... given my shaken history with her)

[Amy]

I’m coming! I have finished my subdue book and I will review it in a couple of hours so I should be ready for a roll tomorrow!!! Ursula has been most stingy lately.

Joanne, I used participation points, three of them to move myself forward. I should be at number 27 even though I just read number 24 if you were mine. So my roll should take me to the spot rolled after that. Hopefully that made sense.

Off to the Boozy Book Fair !

[Joanne]

Amy, I have you on # 27 on the behind the scenes board-in fact you and I are sharing seat!), Anita/Kate have not updated the official board here-nothing I can do about that.

[KateNZ]

Rolls for 7 August

BC: 2-6
Ellen: 2
Joy: 4
Sue: 1-4-5-4-6-2


Slightly early today as I have to drive to work. Will check again when I get there for any last minute rolls

[Amy]

No need for a last minute - posting my review now! Tomorrow is fine. Enjoy your day.

Joanne - I know you always have my back. Thrilled to be sharing a seat. Here we go.....

[Amy]

Review posted - one Porter dice roll for Amy please.....

Make It Up Monday

I'm so sorry Getting Back to Reading, but you've been chosen (for Shake It Up Sunday - - but I'm late, hence Make It Up Monday).

When you finish your book, you must move back 5 spaces and read whatever is there.

What happened to beginners luck??

[Book Concierge]

Well, Ursula is certainly have her fun with me. She continues to withhold any special rolls and the 2-6 combo puts me on space # 90 next - reading Ursula Under by Ingrid Hill. No audios available for this nearly 500 page book, either.

Well, it's been on the TBR for ages, so I'm not unhappy about finally getting to it.

Well, look at it this way ... you are now in the ultra lu e extra comfy Royal Coach! Maybe JoAnne can fill touinon who is there, but I suspect you mau have the full staff attending just you. The burler is the one with the Thunder Mountain Mickey Mouse ears gifted by Cora. I hear the wardrobe attendant has an array of l9vely lounge robes.

Ursula may have wanted to be sure her book was read, but at least it is in total comfrt.

Ursula is getting a little too naughty. May have to interview some ne randomizers if she doesn't shape up.

Even randomizers are replaceable, Ursula!

[Theresa]

P.S. welcome to the Shaken Back Club, Getting Back to Reading!

ANITA. when you check in again, See Message 51 - I had a Special 6-4 roll. I'm in no hurry for it.

[Anita]

Yes, my apologies, Nancy! I promise to deal with it tomorrow.

LOL! I love that your next read is about Ursula!

[Robin P]

I am ready for my next roll (1).

Nancy, your special 6-4 advantage is a move of 21 in honor of the day you rolled it. August 4 was National Chocolate Chip Cookie day, and the average Chips Ahoy cookie has 21 chocolate chips. You may use this move when you want.

LoL, Tessa- but that book does look interesting! I am looking forward to your review.

[Joanne]

Nancy, I made an assumption when updating the board this morning, and moved you the 21 spaces-I am thinking you want to get board 1 finished and move on-let me know if I was wrong in doing this, and where you should be

[Joy D]

I am ready for another roll, please! (1)

[Theresa]

Another cool special advantage, Anita! And who knew there were 21 chips in a Chips Ahoy cookie? Hmmm - I can almost hear a tv ad reciting that in my head. Maybe I did know!

I'm not sure Joanne, It's probably perfect but I'm not close to making a new list yet. I'll let you know later.

[NancyJ]

Joanne, and Kate -

I just finished a review of Hench (# 77) and I'm ready for my next roll (1).

I'll just take a single roll now. I have most of the next six books handy, but I don't have 97-100 right now. I'll save my special advantage for another day.

[KateNZ]

As he was leaving for the store, I told my husband about this and national chocolate chip cookie day. I asked him to pick up the ones with coconut I like. They didn't have them, so now he's making them! He thought I meant today was Chocolate chip cookie day, but he's still making them even though I 'fessed up.

So thanks again Anita!

[Booknblues]

I'm ready for my next roll(1)

Thanks!

[Joy D]

I am going to use one of my benefits to move forward 3 spaces by using 3 participation points. I will note it on my Board.

[Amy]

I got a 1–3; so I have to move somebody up to 15 spaces on their board. I would never move anybody back. Just tell me who.

[Joy D]

Anita, My last 2 rolls were 4, 6, which qualifies for a special advantage (when you get a chance). Thanks!

Aw, that's so cute and sweet! Enjoy your cookies. I like the sound of the coconut in them.

[Anita]

Amy wrote: "I got a 1–3; so I have to move somebody up to 15 spaces on their board. I would never move anybody back. Just tell me who."

Amy, you are moving Joy.

[Anita]

Joy, your 6-4 advantage is you can multiply any roll you get during the next 8 days by 8 (for August 8th). The only thing is, you can't go back in time . . .so each day for the next 8 days (any rolls you request from August 9 through 17) , you need to decide whether or not to use the multiplier.

If say, you don't use it on a 4 in hopes of getting a 6, and a 6 doesn't appear after the 4, you can't go back to the 4.

Let me know if I am explaining this clearly enough!

[Anita]

NancyJ wrote: "I LOVE IT! 🍪🍪🍪🤣😂🍪.."

So glad!!

[NancyJ]

Oh my, unless I missed a roll in between, I think I have another 6 - 4 special roll! No hurry at all.

[Amy]

I am going to move Joy 10 spaces to #81, the Wife by Meg Wolitzer. People really seem to like this author and I think I heard someone mention this book. I really loved 15 spaces, Nothing to See Here by Kevin Wilson, but I want to recommend to you Joy, to listen to that one on audio. I thought it was a great audio and that is the best way to experience Wilson's books. That is why I went with 10, and not 15. On the hopes that you will hear #86 as an audio instead.

Thank you, Amy! I have been wanting to get to The Wife for quite a while!

Yes, I think I understand that I can see the role first before deciding, but I can't go back to a prior roll. Thanks, Anita!

Finally Joy! You get a break!
