Sure, why not. :)
One question: I had to go jail and bailed myself out. I´m not sure if I´m allowed to roll again right now or if I have to wait two days for my next roll.

*Players can roll no more frequently than every other day. Players keep track of their own roll days. If you roll on a Tuesday, you don't roll again until Thursday. We calculate this is days, not hours, so you can roll at 11:59 on Tuesday and 12:01 a.m. on Thursday, and even though there are only 24 hours and 2 minutes between your rolls, you've rolled every other day.

So based on that, I would say you can't roll until the next day after bailing yourself out. So if you rolled on Saturday, and landed on jail, and then went and checked the bail fund, you immediately bailed yourself out, you then cannot roll again until Monday.
I landed on "Go to Jail". I'm a little confused about how to handle this. I rolled the dice and got a 5, which means my bail is $5. Do I pay it out of my bank and roll again immediately? Or do I use the bail fund?
If you land on Go to Jail you have to do the following:

If you are in jail:

Roll the dice to determine your bail, between $2.00 and $12.00. Check the bail fund to see if there is enough money there to bail you out. If not, make up the difference with your bank. If your bank doesn't have enough money to bail you out, read your way out of jail.

So you rolled a 5 which means you owe $5.00. Check the bail fund and see if there is enough there for you to get out. You can then post that you took money out of the bail fund. If there's not enough money you have to read enough to get out.

As of four day ago the bail fund was $11.00. So you would deduct $5.00 and state the new balance is now $6.00. You don't get to roll again. You have to wait for your next roll day.

What if I still had one 4th of July bonus roll left? (sorry I should have specified that)

Hmm. Good question. I would guess you have to wait to roll for the bonus roll due to the jail roll. So you still have the bonus roll, you just couldn't use it right away. Does that make sense?

It does. Thanks.

No worries!
Question about space #27 "Read a book that features a hero's journey or is a bildungsroman". I read Paris by the Book as a tentative fit for this square, but I wanted an official call on it first. Clicking the link takes you to the full summary, but the TL;DR version at the end of it say:

"Charming, haunting, and triumphant, Paris by the Book follows one woman’s journey as she writes her own story, exploring the power of family and the magic that hides within the pages of a book."

It's a stretch of the definition of bildungsroman, and I'm not sure the MC is strictly a hero. If it doesn't work, I can still use the book for space #30, so ... either/or.

Thanks!

That’s the last day you can roll/post a review. So some people may be able to start and finish a book that same day.

Since the MC isn’t a hero and it doesn’t follow from youth to adulthood I don’t see how it could fit. MR can also weigh in.
Need help?
