Jude: The Epic Reader’s comments from the Bookaholics Read-a-Thons group.

Hi! Me, Jude the Epic Reader, and Shannara have began a buddy read of An Ember in the Ashes and we are willing to invite anyone else who wants to join us in the discussions. We will have different threads for the different chapters so please no spoilers past the parts that we read, if it is within the chapters we have read you can say whatever you want about it.
Thank you.

Sorry this is so late!
If someone posts a suggestion that you agree with make sure you also suggest it, if a book has more suggestions than I will be more likely to put in on the poll.
For this month we will be reading two books (if you choose), if you want to read a book that isn't YA that's okay for the second book.
