Rachmi  | 4882 comments When I see buddy read schedule suddenly I need to read all those books, though I'm not intended to read it. Should I close my eyes or ignore buddy read thread? :D


message 152: by Tati (new)

Tati I check the buddy read thread just to see if thee's someone wanting to read a book I already have. But I should avoid it until April if I know what's good for me (guess I don't LOL)

You're added ☺


message 155: by Kate (new)

Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments Wohooo! So many books that it hurts my eyes. Haha. I'm going through the posts in a bit to schedule buddy reads.

Sarah and Abbie - I can read those books with you! you both are probably swamped so you can schedule because I'm open for the month.

and question! Bonus points only count when you don't have it on your shelf & just the other person?

If its on your shelf you earn points, if its on someone else's shelf you earn bonus points ☺
You can also read other books from the same series and get points too ☺

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90931 comments Mod
If that makes any sense!
so if you wanted to buddy read a book with me that was on my shelf, but wasn't on your shelf, you'd get 1 point for reading and reviewing, and a second point for the buddy read ☺


message 158: by Kate (new)

Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments Okay Sarah! :) I got you! Thanks! :)
So, when did you want to read Sweet Evil

And Abbie did you want to read Confessions of a Murder Suspect with me? If so, when? :)

I'm joining the Vampire Academy buddy read too! Maybe just the first book for now. :)


message 159: by Abi (new)

Abi (abi_gr) | 27659 comments I'm completely free from the 13th apart from saturdays (15th, 22nd, 29th) so i can do whenever for Confessions of a murder suspect. :)

I'll be joining with Sweet evil too. :)

Tessa - sorry! i only just noticed your message about mara dyer! the 13th is fine for me, I'll just have to check with Abbie but i think it will be okay with her too ☺

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90931 comments Mod
days i currently have free are-

4th, 6th, 8th, 9th, 11th-13th, 15th, 16th, 18th-20th, 22nd, 23rd, 25th, 26th and 31st ☺

Okay, the 13th for mara dyer - i'll have to amend the thread a bit later, i think we already have one.


message 164: by Kate (new)

Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments Sarah - Can we do it on the 16th so Abbie will be available too?

Abbie - Will the 13th work for you then? :)


message 165: by Abi (new)

It looks like there's already a buddy read planned for sweet evil for march 17th, so we'll just use the same thread and can all discuss it together when they start ☺ https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...


message 176: by Kate (new)

Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments Kathryn, sure thing! :) When are you available? I have just a few confirmed buddy reads so my calendar is pretty empty :)


message 177: by Kate (new)

Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments Kathryn, is there anyway we can start earlier than the 5th? :)


message 178: by Kate (new)

Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments Maybe the 2nd or 3rd?

Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments @Kathryn, okay. I'll make the thread. I'll say the 3rd :)

message 181: by Abi (new)

Abi (abi_gr) | 27659 comments Tayla, none of The Bane Chronicles would count because they're all under 100 pages.

Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments @Noella, would the 1st work for you?


message 185: by Tessa (new)

Tessa (tessa_ioana) | 1861 comments @Tatiana, how about 14 march for All Our Yesterdays (All Our Yesterdays #1) by Cristin Terrill ?

@Christina, 20 march for The School for Good and Evil (The School for Good and Evil, #1) by Soman Chainani ?

Gosh, you guys are reading so many of the books I also want to read, but I don't want to overbook myself again. My February reads are a pain to finish @.@.

message 187: by Mei (new)

Mei (meijey) | 3810 comments After Abbie and Sarah didn't liked Blood Red Road (Dust Lands, #1) by Moira Young I lost the energy to read it now.


message 188: by Mei (new)

Mei (meijey) | 3810 comments Aaah I love seeing everyone's shelves! It was hard sorting out what to read than I initially assumed it would be. So my shelves might take long, though.

Is there a way we could see a breakdown of all buddy reads? It's difficult to see all of them without looking at the folders themselves... Haha


message 189: by Kate (new)

Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments @Mei: Thanks so much for letting me know! :) I'll join both!

I was thinking the same, I'll try and do it when I'm on my computer ☺

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90931 comments Mod
Actually Mei, Abbie has been keeping the group bookshelves up to date, so you should be able to see what buddy reads are planned by looking at the to-read shelf ☺

Ha, I felt it pretty interesting and the second book was better, but I do admit is not one of the must reads, but if someone wants to discuss this I can join them. I would like to re-listen to the audiobook. Saba's voice was awesome, even is she as a character was a little bad at times ^^.

Rachmi - I can read Unravel by Calia Read with you when you get round to it. I know you want to read other stuff first so no rush ☺

Yay...I think I need to mix between my first priority and other books so that I don't get bored? :D And I'll take slowly reading The Lord of the Rings and The Picture of Dorian Gray. So I can read more than one book at a time :D

How about second week of March?
