Caro (karopi) | 995 comments I sadly have to give up from The Idiot next month. It seems that I will have to work a lot and no that much time for me. Is a long book and I do not want to say I will read it when I am not sure about it.

message 832: by Gretchen (new)

Gretchen (eab2012) | 596 comments I want to start reading The Pillars of the Earth The Pillars of the Earth (The Pillars of the Earth, #1) by Ken Follett in January. Since it's a lengthy text, I'm guessing I probably won't finish until the middle of February. maybe beginning of March. I'm willing to change the end date if someone wants to read with me.


message 833: by Winter, Group Reads (new)

Winter (winter9) | 4998 comments Reading The Little Friend The Little Friend by Donna Tartt in December, anyone welcome to join :)


message 834: by Patricia (new)

Patricia Meyer (euxxth) | 105 comments 1) I've always wanted to read the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling but I know most people have already read it so another book I'd like to read is maybe The Red Queen or the Abhorsen Chronicles by Garth Nix

2) any date is fine with me but give me 4-5 days to finish because of upcoming tests which have slowed my reading

3) not sure but I'm flexible in genres especially in fantasy, historical fiction and Sci-fi

Hi Patricia, I would like to join you for The Red Queen.

message 836: by Winter, Group Reads (new)

Winter (winter9) | 4998 comments I want to read the Red Queen too, but I'm to tied up in challenges in 2015, so if you guys are not in a hurry I would join in January.

And I'm very in on fantasy buddy reads Patricia! I'm reading Snow like Ashes in December if you want to join:)

I can also read The Young Elites.
