Maxine, we could do Kayla at the start of July?"

Sounds good! I've had this one forever, since it was on sale (or maybe it was free).

I loved that one, hope you enjoy it.

[Addy]

After u guys read Kyla, any takers to read the sequel? Been dying to read it!

[Maxine Marsh]

Yay, join us Eleven. I'm glad to hear some good feedback about it.

Addy, I also have the sequel and would be nice to shorten my spreadsheet this year :)

[Justin]

Sequel is good also but not as good as the first.

[Addy]

Just curious. Would anyone read Gone with the Wind? I know, it's not horror but thought I'd ask.

[Vicki Willis]

Does anyone want to read ? I know we talked about it, Addy but then never got to it. I read the sample and now I have to keep going.

[Addy]

Gosh! I know! Sorry. I've got so many reads. I could fit it in mid July but you've already started. You'll have to let me know what you thought of it.

[Justin]

I just read the prolog of House of Sighs i won't get back to it until after the holiday weakend though if anyone wants to read it with me.

[Justin]

Anyone for A Fine Dark Line

[Justin]

I just got Answers of Silence and a god of hungry walls to review for deadite. I know there are a couple other people that are reviewers for them here, want to buddy read them?

[Kate]

Sorry Justin, I don't have any of those. I'm trying to catch up on a ton of review reads myself. Hope you get someone to buddy read with. :)

[Justin]

I might sugest a fine dark line for the group read.

[RachelvlehcaR]

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in reading a chunky book. I have two I'd like to read:

House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski

and

Battle Royale by Koushun Takami

I'd like to read it with you Addy. It's been on my TBR list for a long time.

I missed this comment. It's not something i would choose to read but I'm always trying to read something diffrent and explore other genres. Plus i love our non horror buddy reads, so I'm in when you two start it.

[Addy]

Ok. Wow! So Rachel and Justin. Gone with the Wind is a pretty hefty book. Let me find it because I put it away in a box and then we can decide when we want to start it.

[Justin]

I will need to get a copy, should be easy enough though.

[Addy]

All right. I've got mine. I could start at the end of January say the 29th? That sound good?

[Justin]

I'm going to have to drop out sorry, i havn't gotten back to the other busy read yet, i took an extra week of work and now that I'm back I'm on a job i can't read. Also i didn't find a copy, i thought it was one of those classics you can get free but it isn't and i don't want to read it enough to buy a copy. Sorry again.

[Addy]

That's ok Justin. I don't really think I could squeeze it in anyway. Some other time.

[RachelvlehcaR]

Np. I grabbed it from my library. I will just read it with one of my other groups. They are reading it for their Book of the Month.

[Maxine Marsh]

Would anyone be interested in buddy reading Slowly We Rot? It nearly won the monthly poll and looked like a great read.

[Addy]

I would join in

[Vicki Willis]

Maxine wrote: "Would anyone be interested in buddy reading Slowly We Rot? It nearly won the monthly poll and looked like a great read."

Let me see if I can get it and I will join too. When are you thinking of starting?

[Maxine Marsh]

I was thinking next week sometime, beginning of March...

[Kate]

I'll join. :)

[Maxine Marsh]

Yay, we've got a little side read then! Can we just say the first weekend of March? Like the 5th?

[Vicki Willis]

I got the book. I can start that weekend too!

[Justin]

I'm in. I can loan the book also, i just won't connect my kindle to the Internet until buddy read is over so i won't lose it.

[Maxine Marsh]

Awesome, Justin!

[Kate]

Would anyone like to buddy read Close to the Bone, we decided to pick the other book for the monthly read as it wasn't part of a series but I'm still really keen to read this.
Any takers?

[Maxine Marsh]

I'll buddy read with you! I read the first two and wasn't sure I would return to the series, but maybe this one may hit the mark!

[Kate]

I'll set up a thread. Do you want to start it next week?

[Maxine Marsh]

Yes, next week would be great, since there's a lot of reads starting up this week!

[Justin]

I am just starting The Strain and also Godless: How an Evangelical Preacher Became One of America's Leading Atheists if anyone wants to join.

[Justin]

I will be listening to Milk-Blood: A Tale of Urban Horror and the sequel All Smoke Rises: Milk-Blood Redux on audible soon

[Justin]

Mark has offered free kindle copies of both as well as a free audible copy of all smoke rises to anyone willing to leave a review. if anyone wants to buddy read with me. The code for the audible book just adds a credit to your account that can be used on anything, i got the free kindle copy of all smoke rises and then noticed i could do a $2 upgrade and get the audible edition so i just bought it and used the credit for a $25 book i wanted.

[Vicki Willis]

I will read it it with you. I already have the first one. How do I get the second one?

[Justin]

I told him someone was interested and linked him to this thread so he should reply when he sees it. Want to start milk blood tomorrow or do you need to finish something else first?

[Mark]

Hi Folks. Mark Matthews here, author of Milk-Blood and All Smoke Rises. Huge thanks to Justin for this post. MILK-BLOOD has been optioned for film and ALL SMOKE RISES is the follow-up and can be read as a stand-alone story. Reception has been excellent so far.

I'm happy to provide a voucher for a FREE Kindle download from amazon for either Milk-Blood or All Smoke Rises (US only. If outside of the US, message me for other options). I have about seven audio vouchers left, so can provide one of those as well. Just message me here or email to WickedRunPress@gmail.com (Vicki, I just messaged you.)

Tomorrow sounds good. Mark sent me a messge so I can get the second book. So nice of him!! I appreciate it!!

[Justin]

I will be listening to both from audible, do you want to just read and then discuss, or stop at a certain point and discuss, like maybe every 25%?

[Vicki Willis]

Yep. Sounds good to stop every 25 % or so. You can make a thread for us.

[Maxine Marsh]
