Have already had 4 WL books offered to me in the past few days. Is anyone else getting a lot of wishes granted? |

Congratulations! I'm in a dry spell right now, but I had a run of granted wishes in December. |

Only one WL book found for me this month but I'm having a run on requests, some for some titles that have been on my shelf for over a year. That's fine with me! :)

Jeanne , thats great! I did have a offer today too. but before that not in awhile. Maybe due to the holidays? Hope everyone gets offers soon. |

Yes, I've had a handful recently. The timing is about right too. In the past it the holidays have been slow while people are busy, then picks up mid-Januaryiish when people are less busy....and have been reading gift books and posting. Although December seemed busier than the last several, a high number of books offered to me either timed-out or never arrived. Last Edited on: 1/22/13 9:21 PM ET - Total times edited: 1 |

No, I haven't gotten any more books than usual (I usually get none, so that's no surprise) - but I'm going to make other people's luck change. I think I'm going to post 13 wish list books this week, and they're mostly slow-moving wishlists, too. |

I noticed a lot of books coming available to me too! Hopefully I'll get some requested from me soon! Last Edited on: 1/23/13 12:20 AM ET - Total times edited: 1 |

People could be getting books out before the postage increase. |

Yep Nancy, that's what I did. I mailed out 20 WL books on Sunday. |

I've gotten perhaps 7 or 8 WL books this month so far including one that had been on my WL since 2007! I always love the rush of books being posted in January, makes January bearable! |

I've received several WL books this month as well. I'm deciding what "sacrifice" to offer to the WL gods to keep it up! LOL |

I joined the Gold Key membership about 4 months ago and one of the features is that when you are about to post a WL book, it will tell you if any of your PBS friends has it on their WL and you can offer it to them first before posting in the system. I love this feature! I have gotten about6 books that my PBS friends have offered to me that way. One I had been on the WL for 2 years so I was thrilled to get it. I highly recommend people join Gold Key. |

Yeah, actually, since January began, I've been granted seven Wish Listed books, one I canceled the request as I didn't want it any more and the other couldn't be sent because the member's kid spilled something on it. But I'm enjoying the ones I've gotten so far :D |

I was able to send a WL book that a friend here sent me earlier this month (it was a quick read) to a PBS friend of mine-- the WL has over 650 wishers so know my friend was as happy to get it as I was! |

I've had a lot lately too! Although, I have not had a book requested from me in probably 2 months.. |

Nothing coming in for me. I think I have had 1 WL book since mid-Dec. I have too many credits already so not sending out any of the WL books I have either. I have gotten a couple requests off my bookshelf. It has been slow but hoping it picks up. |

It's been really slow for me this past month or so!! Just had a WL book offered to me - the first in a long time. Hopefully, people will start requesting from my bookshelf! |

I just got one the other day- unfortunately I had to RWAP (in more ways than one). I don't have a big WL or Shelf right now, so one WL is really good for me. |
