Lit Bug (Foram) | 402 comments Since there wasn't a thread for Buddy Reads, I created this one so we could put our requests and read together :)

For now, would anyone like to read Embassytown by China Miéville with me? I've just started...

I've read it but I'd be interested to know what you thought of it when you're done. I'm still scratching my head a bit.


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) I really liked Embassytown. Hope you enjoy it, Lit Bug, I'll keep an eye on the thread for future reads though :D

★★★★★ and a favourite. I had seen China as a guest on First Tuesday Book Club having read The City & the City

It was enough to encourage another read and Perdido it was. Different setting entirely, recommend both and yet fell into New Crobuzon with ease - I'd buy a graphic if there were one.

How was Embassytown?

Embassytown was fascinating! Going to pick Perdido sometime soon, and for now -

anyone up for reading Babel-17 with me?

Donna R (goodreadscomuser_ainsco) I'll join you Lit Bug - so long as you're not too advanced and when I can track a copy.

Oh dear, I'm already done with that - but if you still read it, I'm open to opening a thread and discuss it with you and others.

Thanks, though!
