Absolutely! It's also my BOM nomination for October :) Hope it's chosen!

You’re going to hate me, but I don’t have it in me to read this book. It’s just too depressing and I hate carrying that feeling around. Sorry ☹️☹️

Do you want to read a fun book with me instead?

EDIT - I poked around in your shelves a little, and we have a few TBR books in common. Happy to read any of those with you. No pressure for another buddy read though! Feel free to say no 😊

Hi Sarah, we have a new team challenge starting on September 19th. Signs up are currently open. Check this thread out.

Ooh I literally just started watching Lucifer, because the teaser on Netflix was hawttt. The show is nice enough, BUT this dude has abnormally long and thick side burns. It’s so icky!

Just finished Chapter 8. this is some depressing stuff, Alysa :( It's making my heart break. And honestly, I can't bring myself to sympathize with Kit at all. If I saw my mom wasting her life away with alcohol and drugs, it would steer me well away from that path. I absolutely cannot understand Kit doing the exact same things as his mom, especially when he clearly identifies her shortcomings.

We’ll definitely keep these going :) the next one is going to be closely tied to the next team challenge 😉

Yeah, 5-8 sounds good!

Alysa wrote: "Also, @Aiswrya — congrats on becoming a Mod! I didn’t know until now :)"

Thanks!! It's very exciting :)

Haven't gotten to my two chapters yet - wonder where Chava is!

Chava, let us know if you want us to wait for you :) I don't want to leave you behind since you asked for this buddy read!

Welcome :)

Finished the next two chapters. Kit is such a brat!

EDIT: I understand his behavior towards his mom but I think he should be nicer to his siblings ☹️

Me too! This is going to be a heart breaking read.

Laura, did you check us in?

You are missing your task for Tattered - I think you had winter scene on cover listed in your post

I've had an awesome time on this challenge! I have so many new books to read and so many new genres to explore! You've all been an awesome team :) Hope to meet you all on another team challenge!

A big THANK YOU to Laura and Lulu for taking on the extra work!
