Gah I LOVE Left 4 Dead! It's my favourite game ever :D

PvZ was fun too.

[D.G.]

Can we start chanting shelf already?

[Mary X]

Shelf!

I don't know why I'm in a hurry since I haven't finished the first shelf yet.

[D.G.]

LOL, Mary! Me neither! But I want to know whether I'll be able to read one of the books I got from the library which I can't renew.

LOL, very likely judging from how some things were shelved on YA Paranormal -- sheesh, somehow I don't consider Laurell K. Hamilton and the well-hyped/most-groups-reading Fifty Shades of Grey as belonging there

LOL I'm pretty sure that Fifty Shades of Grey is basically the definitely of NOT-young-adult....

[D.G.]

LOL, Deborah. You may be right. I belong to a group where we pick a shelf to read each month and Harry Potter always shows up no matter the shelf. Supposedly someone found HP in American History!

These two books really fit the group so I think unless the dragons or demons bookshelves are called, I should be fine.

[Mary X]

That's why I want to know too. I have a pbs game book to read that works for a few shelves. It's a doorstopper too but I don't want to start it incase it works for the next shelf.

[Lauren]

Fifty Shades is on the YA Paranormal shelf? There something seriously disturbing about that...

There's always a few weird shelf choices. I noticed the 50 shades and LKH books too. In the spirit of the game, I chose to read a young adult paranormal rather than choosing something that was "mis-shelved".

[Valerie ~ Val Hall ~]

Someone has weird shelving rules. I guess that maybe the first LKH book could do but still.

I wonder if someone shelved Fifty Shades because of its tenuous link to Twilight.... Of course, that person/people have obviously not actually read it yet!

[Mary X]

The last time I played, I noticed a bunch of non-paranormal historical romances on the vampire shelf. Many of them were books I had read myself and knew for a fact that they didn't have vampires in them. I decided that I would take AH's approach and not read a book that was obviously mis-shelved.

So glad you're psyched to join (and WELCOME to SOS!). This round's players are set, but Steph can see about putting you in as a stand-by player. This round just started up, but there will definitely be a round 6 at some point and we hope you can join in then! Do hang out and enjoy with us, though!

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Welcome to the group, Amethyst. I'll add you to our stand-by list. Thank you for your interest in the game!

[Leah]

[Judithe, Soap Operas never end....]

Good luck with the move, Zina!

[Leah]

Hope the weather clears up for you!

[★Meghan★]

Oh shelf!!!! Where ARE YOUUUUU????

[Rosina]

Ok bonus for me. DH hired movers who could be magic mikes twins. Just wish it was a hotter day. Shirts would be off.

[★Meghan★]

That is okay! As long as they look like Channing Tatum, you will not even be able to look at the book :)

Wet shirts can prove interesting too. Maybe all the duds will get nice and clingy.

[★Meghan★]

Ooohhh!!! Wet t-shirts! Amazing and you can give them extra attention to possibly throw their shirts in the dryer :)

LOL! Just be careful that the Hubs doesn't catch you ogling them!

shelf shelf! shelf! shelF! sheLF! shELF! sHELF! SHELF! SHELF!! SHELF!!!

[Rosina]

It was raining so hard at one point this morning it could have been a wet t shirt contest


Will be glad when shelf is announced I can stop cleaning and just chillax looking for my next read.

[Mary X]

I'm hoping it comes before I leave for my road trip tomorrow. If I have an audiobook that will work for the next shelf then I can get a good 6 hrs of it done in the car tomorrow.

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Wet tshirts contest sounds more interesting than waiting for shelf announcement.

[★Meghan★]

I agree Debbie! Especially if they are Channing Tatum look-alikes :)

[AH]

[Jeann (Happy Indulgence)]

YAY NEW SHELF woohoo!

[D.G.]

Soo my husband saw Justin Bieber in one of the late night shows and he was horrified at the cakes of makeup Bieber was wearing. I told my husband I didn't get what's the deal with Bieber either.

That is both a blessing and a curse (of the ever-growing TBR list).

[Lisa Kay]

Sorry to bug you, but where's the link to the Google Spreadsheet link? I had it bookmarked, but my browser crashed and I had to uninstall/reinstall it.
