Trisha | 30284 comments oh my gosh! What a COVER!!! I love it!! You don't think we can squeeze it in somewhere in February!?!? lol

well, I'm on hold at the library - they've ordered them but only have 1 in. It will probably take me until the end of this month, beginning of next month for me to get it!

But I'm definitely IN!!! :D

Whenever you guys want to read it is fine with me.. This month or next. :D

Trisha, I hope you get it soon!!


message 657: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments I love the cover too. I have no problem with the date, it's the 2 of you who have a lot to read lol... I can start anytime next month.

Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments Trisha, do you think we can pull of February?! Or do you want to wait? We could do it first in March. LOL


message 659: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments can we set a date in the last week of February and if I get it soon, we can change it??!!! (or I can buy it! LOL! :D)

I've already read Stormbreaker. It was such a good book! And I haven't read any of the books in the Hunger Games series.

Ruth Noemi Rojas (httpwwwgoodreadscomcollinss66) | 341 comments Does anyone want to read The Fault in Our Stars by John Green or Fire from the Rock by Sharon M. Draper ?


message 669: by Janna (new)

Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments When are you planning on reading The Fault in Our Stars by John Green ?

Trisha | 30284 comments Michael wrote: "Does anyone want to buddy read Stormbreaker (Alex Rider, #1) by Anthony Horowitz or Catching Fire (The Hunger Games, #2) by Suzanne Collins"

I think Storm Breaker sounds good!!I think I can get it pretty quickly too!

Gisbelle, let us know when you can get it and maybe we can set the date?

Trisha | 30284 comments Gisbelle wrote: "Hooray... we are killing it.I am ok whenever possible."


for Uses for Boys by Erica Lorraine Scheidt - how about 2/9 or 2/10??

we'll need to read it pretty quickly if we do either day

OR

we can do 2/20 and take some time. it's a pretty short book (about 230 pages) so I think we might be able to read it in one day :)


message 672: by Janna (new)

Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments Hm.. either 2/9 or 2/10 would be okay. Tight, but do-able!

2/20 is only a day before Grave Mercy, which is HUGE!

OR we could do 2/26 which is right in between Grave Mercy & Born Wicked. That would give us 5 days with Grave Mercy and two days before Born wicked.


message 673: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments oooh, I like 2/26 MUCH better!! let's go with that!!

do you want to do the thread??


message 674: by Janna (last edited Jan 26, 2013 11:26PM) (new)

Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments YAY!! 2/26 it is, if Gisbelle is okay with it!

I'll make the thread! I can change the date later if Gisbelle needs me to. :D


message 675: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments lol it sounded like she was good any day :D yay!! thank you!!! :D


message 676: by Janna (new)

I will read The Fault In Our Stars but when do you want to start it? Sounds good.


message 679: by Ruth Noemi (new)

Ruth Noemi Rojas (httpwwwgoodreadscomcollinss66) | 341 comments Michael and Janna-I have already started it! I started it Friday! I can't seem to put it down. If you guys want to start it tomorrow or Tuesday, that would be fine with me. I don't know when you if you guys have busy schedules. I will go ahead and make the thread for the 29th, and I can change it if I have to.

Yes, I should be able to start on the 28th, if you don't mind me starting later in the day.
otherwise, if we can start on the 29th, I should be able to start earlier in the day.


message 683: by Michael (new)

Michael Dunleavy | 272 comments I think the 28th is alright because I am going to start later in the day. Want me to start the thread?

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments I haven't read the first two books, Trisha. What about Catching Fire?


message 690: by Trisha, lives on coffee (last edited Feb 01, 2013 09:43PM) (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments Oh Vicki!! You should read Across the Universe (Across the Universe, #1) by Beth Revis !! the whole series is so good!!!

:( sadly, I've already read Catching Fire (The Hunger Games, #2) by Suzanne Collins
I liked it (although I know many that didn't).


message 691: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Man, I hate it when I can't buddy read! I feel like I'm missing out! I'll definitely read that series. :)


message 692: by [deleted user] (new)

Does anyone want to buddy read Boundless (Unearthly, #3) by Cynthia Hand or Asunder (Newsoul, #2) by Jodi Meadows with me? I can get them in the next week or so, so anytime after that I am open to read these books with anyone that wants to!


message 693: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments me me me me!!! I want to read Boundless (Unearthly, #3) by Cynthia Hand but I'm still in line at the library....

can we wait a few weeks? I know you're probably anxious to read it! If someone else can read it soon, don't wait for me!

I would also love to read Asunder (Newsoul, #2) by Jodi Meadows but my library doesn't even have their copy yet, so it's more waiting :( If you can wait, I'd love to buddy read them, but if you have them or someone else can read sooner, than I totally understand!


message 694: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments (I can hardly stand the wait for Boundless!! It's such a great series!)


message 695: by Gisbelle (new)

I already read it, it's so good! Hope you guys like it I'll join in on the discussion.


message 697: by [deleted user] (new)

I can totally wait for you Trisha!! I still have a few other buddy reads that I am participating in this month, so just let me know when ever you get your hands on a copy of these books! :)


message 698: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments wahoo!!! REALLY?? You can wait for me?!?!
that. is. awesome! (thank you!!!!)

Now, if you reach a point you can't wait, just let me know and I'll totally understand...but I will definitely keep you posted!!! I'm dying to get these books! LOL!


message 699: by [deleted user] (new)

Haha no problem Trisha!! :) I don't even have a copy of these books myself yet, but I seriously cannot wait to read these books!!!!! I hope they will be good!! :)


message 700: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments oh phew! I'm so glad you won't have to stare these books down while you wait for me! they are going to be so good!!

alright, check back in when you get them, otherwise, when I become #1 on the waiting list on either of these - I'll start hollering and we'll set the dates! :D I can't believe with Boundless, we'll finish the series. it's so good. i'll miss Tucker & Christian when they are gone ;)
