I've read about half or close to half, but I'd love to do a buddy read for This Is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith


message 26: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Okay! I read 20 pages of that one but I can definitely put that one on hold until we can start! :D

And since you also love contemporary, if you have any contemporary books you are wanting to read let me know and I will see if I can get them from my libraries! :D


message 27: by Angela (new)

Angela | 17461 comments Oh, I didn't know you already started. If you want to just finish it, it's okay. I'll find another. (:


message 28: by Angela (new)

Angela | 17461 comments There's already a buddy read for Why We Broke Up by Daniel Handler , right?


message 29: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments No, it's fine! I only read 20 pages and have too many other books anyway! :D Pick a date and I will see if it works! :D

We can be contemporary reading buddies! :D

Great! I think I saw one at the library today, so if no one borrowed it, I won't have to put it on hold. Can we set it for September 28?

No, it's alright. There're mixed ratings, so I'm not sure if I'd like it. I'll find another. (:

message 35: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments The 28th would work perfect!

And yes, I started the Passengers one. :/

message 42: by Angela (new)

Angela | 17461 comments Can we push it off to the Saturday of that week (5th)? I have zero time to read on weekdays.


message 43: by Trinity (new)

Trinity  (tsundokuproblem) Woah! Everyone checks out so many books at the library! I like buying my books from the bookstore because I like to own them whether I know I'll like the book or not. :-D And I'm about 90% sure the librarians don't clean the books every week or month or so. At least, at my library. I don't know what people do to those books behind closed doors LOL! :-D

Ew, that's gross. My library has books that are fairly clean. Only the classics are pretty old and beaten up.

The books at my library are fairly clean, sometimes a few stains but not anything too major.

wow, that is awesome! I wish I could buy all my books.
I can't afford to buy all my books AND I don't have room for all of them! Maybe someday....
Maybe once my kids are grown, I will convert their play areas and the extra room to just books shelves and reading spaces :D one can dream :D
