Thanks.

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments Alright Mandiann. Only thing is, I need to read Percy Jackson series first. I haven't read them yet so I don't want to read The Lord Hero.
And I think you were looking at the wrong shelf. XD The shelf I'm willing do to is titled 'books-i-own-want-for-buddy-reads'

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments oh. its hard on my phone. I clicked the link you posted in this thread and looked at the list it brought ne to. I will look for the correct list in later tonight. oerhaps in about an hour. sorry.


message 3005: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments Alright. That's fine. :)


message 3006: by Mandiann (new)

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments Maddison, how about: eve and adam, before I fall, holes or matilda?


message 3007: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments I've actually just read Before I Fall, so I kind of don't want to do that one. I can do any of the others though. I could even do all of them if you want. :) Want to do it though PMs only or want to create a thread?


message 3008: by Mandiann (new)

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments Yay! I can get all three from my library but they are all audiobooks. I should be good anytime after Nov 9. I would rather create a thread to discuss in case anyone else would like to join us.


message 3009: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments Ok! Would you mind making them? And when will we start them?


message 3010: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments Actually, do you mind if we just do Matilda and Holes? I'm too busy to do Eve & Adam.


message 3011: by Mandiann (new)

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments Yes, That's fine. Let's start with Matilda on the 9th and do Holes on the 16th. Let me know if those dates work for you and then I can start the threads.


message 3012: by Mandiann (new)

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments Perhaps we can do Adam and Eve in December or January?


message 3013: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments Yeah those work. :) Will there be a schedule?

Yeah that would work. :)

I will make the threads tomorrow.

I am good with whatever you want.


message 3015: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments Well I think if we read 5 chapters of Holes a day and 2 chapters a day of Matilda? Is that adequate?

I'll check back in about an hour. I need to walk my dog.


message 3016: by Mandiann (new)

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments Sounds good!


message 3017: by Maddie (new)

I don't have my copy yet, they are still on order and there is no way to tell how long it will be before they are in. I wish I knew someone in Acquisitions! I need a BFF in that deaprtment!! I know someone in Cataloging, but that doesn't help me very much! Usually by the time I see her the item I would ask her about is already out or she doesn't know anything about it! :(

*fingers crossed* it comes in soon! I need to know what is going to happen!

I'm surprised you got it early though! I'm so jealous! :D

YES!! and I already have it! I'm ready for it next month! Is there a day that works best for you??


message 3024: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (chelc13) | 966 comments Is anyone available to read Also Known As (Also Known As, #1) by Robin Benway right now or soon (like within the next few days). I just got it from my library after waiting forever for it to come in.

Well I know you have so many buddy reads but I was hoping to read it as soon as possible but any day works for me! How about Tuesday, 11/5?


message 3026: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments I have 2 other buddy reads on 11/5. Is there a little earlier or one day later that we can do??


message 3027: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Hmm.. How about on 11/3 or 11/4?


message 3028: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments 11/3 is perfect
is it okay if you make the thread? I'm getting ready to eat :D


message 3029: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Sure! In about 10 minutes it will be up! (:

Katie | 1999 comments Is anyone interested in reading Find Me (Find Me, #1) by Romily Bernard with me?

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments Anyone want to read Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson with me? I need to read it before the 15th.

I would have but read it last month! Hope you find a buddy! :D


message 3035: by Whitney (new)

Whitney Boatright | 578 comments Mandianne :) I'll read it with you. Finishing one today then I'll start it :)


message 3036: by Mandiann (new)

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments Sounds great, Whitney! But can we delay starting it a little bit? I have a lot of books on my plate this week. How about the 6th?


message 3037: by Whitney (new)

Whitney Boatright | 578 comments Sure :) not to sound silly but I've never done anything like this. How does it work ?


message 3038: by Mandiann (new)

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments I will create a thread for us with the name of the book and the start date where we can go to discuss the book together while we are reading it. I will post a link to the thread later tonight. When we are discussing the book it is a good idea the let the other person know which part of the book you are at and post your thoughts as spoilers if they give anything away, that way if the other person isn't at the same spot as you they can wait to read your spoilers.


message 3039: by Whitney (new)

Whitney Boatright | 578 comments So would I start before you and like would I post the spoilers?

Would anyone be interested in doing a double-header buddy read in December with BEAUTIFUL DISASTER and WALKING DISASTER by Jamie McGuire?

I'll do one set at the beginning and towards the end, do we can spread them out a bit. :)

(I have read HOPELESS and BEAUTIFUL DISASTER but it is time to reread both and get the sequels read! :))


message 3044: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (chelc13) | 966 comments Does anyone want to read:
Dark Secrets (Dark Secrets, #1) by A.M. Hudson Venom (Secrets of the Eternal Rose, #1) by Fiona Paul Cross My Heart (Cross My Heart, #1) by Sasha Gould

It would have to be at the end of November or beginning of December.

Not to be negative but honestly you don't have to reread Beautiful Disaster to read Walking Disaster because in Walking Disaster you're basically rereading Beautiful Disaster. I can't bring myself to read Hopeless because of that even though I have been told it isn't a retelling like Walking Disaster.


message 3046: by [deleted user] (new)

Reread part is because I love the books. ;D
