R3 TEAM THREAD: Team #1 ~ Published Enemy #1
Published Enemy #1 or Bellatrix's Bitches works for me.Vi, I agree Helena Bonham Carter is quite awesome. Did you know that she and Tim Burton have been together for like 4 years now and have 2 kids?
I love Tim Burton movies, so that's why I think she's even more awesome.
I don't really like Bellatrix's Bitches... As much as I enjoyed reading about Bellatrix and of course, admire Helena Bonham Carter's talent, I wouldn't want to be anyone's bitch, no matter how awesome (or fictional :P). Even if the word is meant as it's "badass" interpretation, I'm still kind of averse to it. If the rest of you like it though, I suppose it's just a name!
I totally see your point :)It looks like Published Enemy #1 is the one that most of us like. Shall we go with it??
Ladies, take a vote and one of us mods can put your name up for you :)
Thenia, I see your point. I'm ok with Published Enemy #1.

Thanks!!!

I missed your comment earlier. Oh man, I didn't know that. That makes her, like, even more awesome.
New name done :)
Thanks Sandra!I think we're the first team to have a name, so hopefully we'll be the first team to get bingo as well ;)
That is exactly what I was thinking, Josie.
*blocks the door with furniture so Cindy can't come in* I just knew you would show up after we started talking like that. Lol. Do you have some kind of alarm or something that goes off when a team other than yours starts to act cocky about winning? *shakes head* Crazy lady. :-D :-P
That paltry bit of furniture won't keep me out! Just go put on your tinkerbelle outfit and flit around for awhile.....I don't need an alarm. I can smell the false hope ya'll have.....
*dances a little* I never took the costume off. :-P*throws confetti all over Cindy* Have fun with that! :-D
*tries to brush off annoying confetti**grumbles loudly*
Dang it - don't you have any edible confetti????
Hmmm.... Interesting proposal. I'll consider it for next time. You look all sparkly though. :-D Pretty.
Yeah....gotta admit the little sparkly gold pieces look great in my hair!
Cool name, ladies!
Thanks Steph!Argh, two more days. I can't wait for Sunday. Totally frustrated with the waiting.
Next time I won't start sign-ups so early, but rather closer to game start (if possible) to cut down on the waiting. Hang in there --- almost time! :D
It's OK Steph - just gives us an outlet to b!tch. That way our families don't get quite so much. That's my story, and I'm sticking with it!!!
It's ok, Steph. No worries! I second Cindy. It's my story too :P

Finally!!! But gosh, that shelf is so long and we can't search :( :( :( I am hoping to find a couple of books but so far I haven't found them. But I do have The Lost Hero which I'm leaning towards. Are we doing the Free Space now also?
The Free Space can be done at any time just not until the game was started. We'll just want to get it done when we can in case it comes up in a Bingo.
If you CLICK HERE, Vi, Steph posted a tip for figuring out if a book you want to read is on a shelf. It was pretty handy for me today.
Oh.... And I'm going to read
for the Free Space.
Thanks Alyssa for the link and the rec! I was able to find
shelved as 4-stars. Yay!. Now I'm torn between both of them :( :( :(Kristen, both of them are shelved as 4-stars. I will read either or both and let you know once I'm done? Is that ok?
Oh and for Free Space, I think I'll go with
I think I'll be reading
for 4 starsIs it alright if I decide free space after I've finished or would you like a decision now?
It'll probably be
for Free Space (off the group's bookshelf)
Josie, you don't have to decide yet for the free space, but if you do, it's not set in stone--you can always change it. :)

Happy Reading!!
Enjoy your "Paperback Writers" today, Published Enemies! I'm off on the "Long and Winding Road" to Detroit to see Sir Paul. I'll "Get Back" to updating our titles in the "Good Morning"!
:-)

But I do have The Lost Hero ..."Ok, I was planning to read kushiel's chosen but then I realizes it's longer than the lost hero. And since I'm had only party of sunday, I decided to go with the lost hero. That and when I peeked into the book, I was sucked into it. but I was wondering about the lightning thief series. It goes to my tbr then. anyway, can I change my book to the lost hero?

LOL, Kristen, Enjoy!
I'm sure you'll "Come Together" and won't want "Help!" After a "Day Tripper" and a "A hard day's night" you'll really just "I want to hold your hand", "Eight day's a week" and relax and think of "Yesterday"
LOL, it's harder than I thought. Had to go & put on my Beatles #1 CDs after that :D
