Welcome, Melanie! Please feel free to join challenges and get invovled in some buddy reading. Do you have any favorite books or genres?

Ah, there probably is a way to do it through there. I'm just not sure. Yes, that seems to be the app. I definitely recommend giving it a try. And I understand tiny libraries, the one closest to me is very small as well. But a lot of libraries usually share an overdrive, so that makes the selection much larger.

Yikes, I don't think I could listen at regular speed. I think that was one reason I used to not like audio.

What app do you use, Tim? Most of them have the capability. I use overdrive, which can to 2x speed.

I am going to do the physical book. I didn't like the first one on audio and knew I wouldn't like his narration. I don't dislike him, I just don't think I could listen to his voice that much.

Awesome!

How are you liking Inkspell, Jamie? I'm going to try and get to that next month.

Wish I had time to reread The Final Empire.

Rachel, be sure to post reviews on the review thread. You may have already done so, just wanted to remind you. :)

That's how I always am, Jamie. But I do tend to finish in batches, so that's not a bad thing.

I'm at 26% now and really liking this reread. (view spoiler)[I actually really like the short chapters. They are deep and insightful and keep the story flowing. It makes it a lot faster to read than if they were pages and pages long.

Alfred is definitely my least favorite character. I do like having him there, because he adds some balance to the story. He seems a little unhinged.

And I love the shoe poet. (hide spoiler)]

Sweet!

How is everyone's reading going?

I've finished another book and will post the review soon. Maybe today, maybe tomorrow. But it will be posted.

Glad you liked it, Erica!

Just added the books I have finished this month to the review thread. I am currently working on all of these:

Salt to the Sea (BOTM)
Wrath of Empire
Oathbringer
Rise of Empire

I am reading a few others, but not sure when I will be getting back to them.

I've just been added to the team and will see what I have that can be contributed.

All of you will be added to a team!

I've only just started my reread, but I'm loving it already. Although I remember the sections being short, they felt longer in audio than they are so far.

Kind of wish this had chapter numbers as well.

Well I can be added in and contribute what I have. :)

If it comes to it, I can be put on a team. I won't contribute loads (as everyone knows), but would join if needed. :)
