Lucy Mason (lmason17) | 174 comments Hi all!

It looks as though Northanger Abbey won our February Genre Challenge poll! I've read this book before and didn't enjoy it enough for a re-read, so am thinking of reading the runner-up (The Rosie Project) instead. Would anyone like to buddy read this with me?

Angélique Chauvin (champagnebrut) | 25 comments Hi Suhay,

Would you be interested in reading How To Think like Leonardo Da Vinci? I noticed it was on your to-read list.

Just a quick reminder, if the book you've nominated doesn't win for the group reads, you can always set up a buddy read for it!

Orlando was one of the suggested titles that did not win in the group poll this month. It's fairly short and interesting. Any interest in a Buddy Read out there?


message 62: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) I'm doing Little Men as a buddy read next week at one of my book clubs I'm in here on goodreads but if anyone here wants to read it with me, let me know. I'm going to read Under the dome this summer to so if anyone wants to buddy read with me that one, let me know.


message 63: by Roseanne (new)

Roseanne | 1239 comments I want to read under the dome but just don't have time now. Summer works for me. I will read it with you then.


message 64: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) Awesome Roseanne. We'll talk about it again when Summer comes and plan a date then. ^_^

Holly (hollycoulson) | 1949 comments Mod
I'd be interested in doing Under The Dome too!


message 69: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) I'll be doing Under the dome in the Summer so you're welcome to join us then, Holly.

message 75: by Ashley (new)

Ashley Bermudez | 5 comments Hey, anyone out there that hasn't read Dont Look Back by Jennifer L. Armentrout yet? I'm gonna read it this month and I thought it would be cool to read it with some people to discuss cuz I heard it was a great book. Anyone that hasn't read it like to join me?

Holly (hollycoulson) | 1949 comments Mod
I was thinking of setting up a general Game of Thrones series thread. Multiple people seem to be at different stages of reading them, and I thought it would be interesting to have a buddy read for the whole series, so everyone can chat about them.

Opinions? :)

This would be great! I am just battling my way through them now - will be reading part 2 of the third book sometime in June.


message 78: by Roseanne (new)

Roseanne | 1239 comments I am 20% done with the first book. I would be interested.

Hi, All! I'm planning to read Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides in June for the Contemporary Lit Challenge. Melissa expressed interest in doing a Buddy Read. Is anyone else interested in joining us?


message 80: by Holly, That Geeky One (new)

Holly (hollycoulson) | 1949 comments Mod
I would, but June is already really busy. I will, however, keep a keen eye on this thread!


message 81: by Holly, That Geeky One (new)

Holly (hollycoulson) | 1949 comments Mod
Iasa, I'm in! I'm always willing to read a Du Maurier!


message 82: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Coyle | 1557 comments Iasa, how soon are you thinking of My Cousin Rachel, not this month, but I would love to reread this book!


message 83: by Holly, That Geeky One (new)

Holly (hollycoulson) | 1949 comments Mod
I'm happy for either November or December! The first half of November will be rather busy for me (assessments eek!), but the second half should be a lot lighter.


message 84: by Holly, That Geeky One (new)

Holly (hollycoulson) | 1949 comments Mod
December works well for me :)


message 85: by Srividya (new)

Srividya Vijapure (theinkedmermaid) | 221 comments @Iasa - If you are doing My Cousin Rachel in December, can I join you guys? Have been wanting to read it for a long time but I didn't want to say anything as I thought that maybe you guys would read it in November and November is going to be a really busy month for me.


message 86: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Coyle | 1557 comments December is a great idea, Iasa! November is looking busy for me too. I will be looking forward to this! Come join us Srividya!


message 87: by Holly, That Geeky One (new)

Holly (hollycoulson) | 1949 comments Mod
Looks like December it is then! So excited!


message 88: by Srividya (new)

Srividya Vijapure (theinkedmermaid) | 221 comments Thanks Melissa and Iasa.. :) December it is! Super excited!

Holly (hollycoulson) | 1949 comments Mod
Might get round to My Cousin Rachel a bit earlier! :)


message 90: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) I'm doing the name of the wind by Patrick Rothfuss in December. If anyone wants to join me, let me know. thanks. I'm doing it at the RFP bookclub on December 1st and can do it here if you want to as well.

I'm interested. I would have to confirm a little later in November though. December is exam season so a lot depends on how much I get done before (marking all the coursework before the final exam scripts descend)


message 92: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) Okay awesome karen. Let me know. I'll set up the thread later. :-)


message 93: by Cristal (new)

Cristal Punnett I would be interested in join in as well:-)


message 94: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) Okay awesome Cristal! :) I'll set the thread for it prob next week then.

message 96: by Polyne (new)

Polyne  Кaramagi (polinushka) | 40 comments I'm currently reading 'Angels & Demons' by Dan Brown. Anyone interested in buddy reading?


message 97: by Cristal (new)

Cristal Punnett Sounds fun to do a christmas-y buddy read, do you have anything in mind?
