We have a different Buddy Read system in the group. Each month interested members sign-up for the Buddy Read and I pair them up randomly. Each pair decides on a book/s to Buddy Read together. The Buddy Read sign-u for June is over but do sign up for July!

Ruchi, I was thinking of reading The Princess Bride too. As this group's buddy read pairings for June's already done, I was thinking if Sanjana is interested, we can do it in the Let's Talk Love Stories Group. Will that be okay for you too Sanjana?

message 15: by Rachel (new)

Rachel (hypoactive_mess) Ruchi, could you please edit Elena and mine's Buddy Read thread name? We decided on a book, but I don't know how this usually works... Do you keep an eye on all the threads or do we apply to you to change them?

You apply in the June-Pairing Announced thread. I'll edit your thread once you post in the thread mentioned above and do post the name of the book which u'll read.

It's basically a read where members get randomly paired (I do the pairing) and the pairs decide on a book to read. You can sign up for this month's read here - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

It's basically 'reading with a buddy'. You read the same book and discuss the book in depth. You share your thoughts about the book, points out it's pros and cons etc. It makes reading fun!
