Oh man, I wish I hadn't read this already! It's one that surprised me so enjoy and have fun reading it together! :)
Mod
I loved it too. I got it for my kindle app for $1.99 the other day (it's still that price) so I plan to reread it with everyone, but it won't be as fun because I know what's coming already *sigh* lol
Awwww I'm sorry guys! I wish you hadn't read it. I guess that will happen to all of us at some point but it sucks!
Wooo this just came in through interlibrary loan in time for the August read! \o/
Alright! Sounds good. I've been looking forward to reading this (I pre-ordered it and then let it decorate my shelves). Looking forward to discussing with everybody!
Mod
I got it for $1.99 on Amazon a few weeks ago :) So excited to read it.

This is going to be my first time reading along with Book BFFs! I'm glad this book was chosen and I'm super excited to read it. YAY! :D
Mod
This does sound interesting. Not sure if I have time to read along yet...
I have a hold on this book from the library, but I'm next on the list. So hopefully I'll be able to get it in time to read along. :) I'm excited to read this book; it's the one I voted on. :)
Mod
I hope it comes in soon! I'm excited to talk about it with everyone!
@Melissa, well my sister talked me into buying it ("It's only 2 dollars, Hannah!"), so I will definitely be joining. AND I can read it over the month, instead of just 7 days. So I suppose it will be $2 worth spent. :) But I'm pumped to be able to chat about it soon!
Question: Can I start Pivot Point now or should I wait till tomorrow which /is/ technically August? I finished my most recent read in the wee hours this morning and now I'm not sure what to start! Pivot Point seems logical but I was just wondering whether I should stick with the time table or not.
Mod
I say go for it. The time table is just a suggestion...just ask Lindsay (she finished July's BOTM in the first few days of July haha). Just make sure you don't post spoilers in the thread before the it says you can.
LOL!! Yes totally go for it. However I wish I had stuck a BIT closer to the time table so I could participate more in the discussions. I was always worried I'd be spoiling something And couldn't guess with everyone!! But one day should be ok haha!
I'm so excited to read this with you all =D
Yay! I can officially play along with the discussion on this one because it was only 1.99 on Kindle! And I am going to try to pace myself because usually I can read a book this length in a day or so. But, I am just going to read the certain chapters each week so that I don't get too far ahead. This will be my first time participating in the readalong!
Mod
YAY!! So excited!! I normally don't stretch a book out that much, but I've just been reading the designated section all in one sitting and then reading other books until the next week. I find I'm really liking doing it this way!
I am really having trouble waiting until the next week to pick it back up.. I read the first 9 chapters yesterday and now I want to know what is happening so I am really having a hard time with it!
Mod
LOL, you can read all at once if you want!! Just wait until the sections go spoiler to chat!

This book was one of my favorite reads this year. It is so crazy clever! If I didn't have all the books to read I would have reread it with you guys.
Yah! Finally starting Pivot Point. Hopefully I can get caught up as I fly back from vacation. Any idea how far I should go percentage wise on my kindle right now?
I think it is right about 50% but let me check..chapter 20 starts at 52% according to my kindle. And we did 10-19 this week.. so if you get to like 51% ish you are golden.
Mod
Yep! And the kindle should still have Chapter headings so just stop when you see 20! hehe
Heh, oh yeah... That too.
So, sad story. I just realized that my fantasy football draft (well, one of them) is on the night of the live chat. So I'll be missing that, unfortunately. But I'll try to stay in the discussion until then! : )
Mod
Oh sad :(
