I know I do it sometimes but most of the time life gets in the way. And I normally start it later and I say it besides that most of the time for people don't comment and leave me alone and I feel awkward discussing book by myself. And then there is this one person who does the same buddy reads in different groups and each date contradict each other. This same person never responds when I say I want to buddy read a book with them.

At least you're commenting and explaining that you're late though, some people don't show up or apologise at all.

I'm so happy! I hadn't received a response for a week so I thought it was just it... But I just saw the email. I'm so happy! :D This will be so much fun!

Yeah, I understand life can get in the way and that sometimes you don't have the oppurtunity to let people know that you have to drop out, but I find that it happens a lot :/ I've also been dropping out myself, but most of the time I leave a note in the thread saying that I have to cancel due to whatever reason :) It's super awkward to discuss with yourself! :D

Tati I'm a bit scatter-brained (okay, a lot), and sometimes I simply forget I have buddy scheduled. So, if I ever schedule a buddy and don't show up, feel free to message me and remind me.

And Irene, congrats!! Even though it's not a paid position, I'm sure it will look good on your CV!


message 5456: by Irene (new)

Irene (raenne) | 4856 comments I find that people are okay with messages about BRs :)

Yeah, that's kind of what I'm thinking as well Tatiana :)

I'm guilty of that, I think you ended up reading Etiquette & Espionage (Finishing School, #1) by Gail Carriger & Undivided (Unwind, #4) by Neal Shusterman without me!

Could it be an update maybe? :)

Don't think I've ever seen that. I unfortunately got to watch the walking dead earlier though. yuck.

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90920 comments Mod
I don't get it either. the only think worse than watching it is having to play it.

Victoria Scott | 2367 comments Sarah, you need to watch some silly, girly movie that you don't have to think about to cure your restlessness :)


message 5491: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90920 comments Mod
I can't remember the last time I watched a movie like that, the only thing i generally watch is the hunger games and catching fire!

Irene (raenne) | 4856 comments March 16 will forever be remembered as the day I first read A Monster Calls.


message 5498: by Tati (new)

Tati Why can't Goodreads send me e-mails titled "Comment posted on such and such thread" rather than "Comment from someone"? I think it'd make more sense


message 5499: by Irene (new)

Irene (raenne) | 4856 comments Good idea Tatiana
