Buddy Read *Queries and Suggestions*

[Vaibhav]

Hey Mod!!

I'm pretty sure our buddy-read-acquaintance Mansu won't make her appearance. I also don't want to read with her because she did something disrespectful that I can't tolerate or nobody else will. It's fine by me if you could create a new group just for me. I think Sachin and Mansu will do fine.

@Ruchi? Should I continue in the thread or make a new one in the Buddy Reads Discussion?

I shifted the thread to the Buddy Reads folder.

Sorry, I can't keep it in the Buddy Reads folder since I'd like the folder to contain threads of only one month. Also, I don't want similar requests coming in from other members. But do you have something else in mind? Do u want me to shift it to some other folder or something?

[Purvika]

I was wondering if you could manage something that way if anyone want to have a continues buddy read with a person for a longer time then they have a place to do so...

You could shift it to the 'General Talks' folder. I don't want to create something which members may not fully participate. Sorry. I'll try thinking of something. I'm just under too much pressure right now.

Yeah its quite fine with me ...I just want it an easy access...and not have to scroll all the way down to archives ...

I am so thankful that you are thinking in this regard... :D

I'm glad that's okay. I'm sorry I'm not paying much attention to it and couldn't think of something. I hardly come online these days. I came online right now after a week maybe and the group's in a mess! Topics created in wrong folders, wrong topics, repeated topics, and it seems a lot has been going on in the group.

Yppiee! I love my December Buddy Read partner! ^_^

[Camillia]

Hi Katriana. Do message me and we can decide which book to read together :)

[Adam]

Sadly, I don't have any "buddies" that are into the genre that I usually read. For those who don't know, I usually read Classical Literature, such as Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea by Jules Verne.

[Natasha]

my name is not on the buddy paired reading and I signed up to that.. :(

[Kylie]

So just to be clear... we set up the thread in the Buddy Reads folder?

[A, Crazy.]

Kylie wrote: "So just to be clear... we set up the thread in the Buddy Reads folder?"

Yes. Any one of the the members of the pair set up the thread.

[Sakshi]

My buddy has not turned up.
There are two Tanvi in the group

I know this is five months later, but do you still want to read 'The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight.'
If so, I would love to read it with you this month.

[Amanda]

Where do I sign up for the next months buddy read?

Amanda wrote: "Where do I sign up for the next months buddy read?"

I will set up the thread on the 15th of August.

Hey, the September pairings were announced today and I haven't heard from my buddy yet. Is there something you could do??

[A, Crazy.]

Kirthika wrote: "Hey, the September pairings were announced today and I haven't heard from my buddy yet. Is there something you could do??"

Well I haven't yet sent a Group Message so most of the members don't even know that the pairings have been announced. I'll send the message tomorrow, and if your partner still doesn't show up, you could send a personal message.

Ok, thank you :)

[Mansimar]

In case anyone's buddy isn't replying, hit me up on BR -13 thread. :-/

Have you tried messaging your buddy?

I have a question; my friend and I want to have a buddy read in a group, and we decided to do it here and I noticed the system. Is it possible to simply br here without using the system?

Yes sure, you can join in, since you already have a pair :)

I wanna sign up to have a buddy! do we pick a book to read or read one of the books of the month?

[Devi]

Where do i register for January buddy reads?

The thread has not been formed yet. Will be up by the 15th of this month.

You can sign up for next month's BR. You and your buddy have to choose any book on your own, not from the BOTM.

[Elizabeth]

I have a question. What happens if when the pairings happen if the two people have no books in common on their to-read shelves, and like different genres completely?

[A, Crazy.]

Elizabeth wrote: "I have a question. What happens if when the pairings happen if the two people have no books in common on their to-read shelves, and like different genres completely?"

You guys can still mutually decide upon a book to read together. The book doesn't compulsorily have to be on your to-read shelves.
