I haven't got the copy for Feast for Crows yet so not sure when I'll be reading it. Perhaps sometime later this year

Soo (silverlyn) | 6898 comments Planning for August/September:

Anyone interested?

A) The Vengeance Trilogy by Devin Madson - Fantasy Adventure

The Blood of Whisperers #1
It's a completed trilogy and looks interesting.

B) The Dwellers Series by David Estes - Dystopian, YA

The Moon Dwellers #1

Completed trilogy. I read the first two books a few years ago and want to get back into it & finish.

Dwellers is focused on people living underground. The follow up series in the Country Saga focuses on survivors on the surface.

1-3 Dwellers
1-3 Country
4 The Earth Dwellers (Tie in book for two trilogies.)

I figure we can start with Dwellers and go from there. All of the books are on Kindle Unlimited (US). There's a bundle pack of audio for Dwellers 1-3.

Charlie (charlieridley) | 5750 comments Does anyone if there is a buddy read scheduled for Words of Radiance at some point?

Elizabeth (fantasynerd365) | 1229 comments Anyone for American Demon by Kim Harrison?


message 5563: by Soo (new)

Soo (silverlyn) | 6898 comments Me. =)

When do you want to start? I prefer to read it vs listening because I think MG makes Rachel sound more like an airhead than I picture her in my head. lol

Charlie (charlieridley) | 5750 comments Me! I don't own American demon yet but I can order it today

Edit: just pre-ordered it in Amazon. The estimated deliver date is 11th July. If you guys read before then I'll just comment in your thread once my book arrives.


message 5565: by Beena (new)

Beena (beenz) | 2198 comments Choko and I will be starting The Way of Kings from the 1st of July, can't quite remember who else was up for it, so just a reminder...


message 5566: by Soo (new)

Soo (silverlyn) | 6898 comments I may join the Way of Kings. Where's the thread for it? I don't see it on the Master Buddy List.

Saar The Book owl | 3096 comments Maybe I'll join if I can find a copy in the library. I'm reading way too much books now...:)

Lol sorry, I forgot to say! There's a Cosmere 2020 Book Club that we'll be using for all of Stormlight.

Hailee, hope you can wait till after August 9th. My exam dates just got announced.

Elizabeth (fantasynerd365) | 1229 comments I'm good pretty much anytime for American Demon. When works for you guys?

That shouldn't be an issue. We'll happily fit it in around your exams. Good luck with them!!


message 5574: by Soo (new)

Soo (silverlyn) | 6898 comments American Demon - I'm good to go whenever.
Curious to see if this extension of the series works out. It's a bit odd to have a book out for a series I thought was finished but I can't be upset about it because there was a ton that could be done with the characters that wasn't concluded. =)


message 5575: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth (fantasynerd365) | 1229 comments Want to start on the 1st of July?

Works for me. =)


message 5577: by Charlie (new)

Charlie (charlieridley) | 5750 comments Regarding American Demon. You guys start whenever and I'll join in when my book arrives.

Seconded, @Kari.
Actually Hay the Jan thread has very few posts and spoilers, we too can just save the mods some work, once we decide on a date.


message 5579: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth (fantasynerd365) | 1229 comments Can one of you guys request the thread for American Demon? I completely forgot to.


message 5580: by Soo (new)

Soo (silverlyn) | 6898 comments Did anyone put in the request for American Demon? If not, I'll do it. But let's put the date to July 8th or so? That way one of the Mods can create the thread.


message 5581: by Choko (new)

Choko (chokog) | 12597 comments I want in for the American Demon as well (+_+)!


message 5582: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth (fantasynerd365) | 1229 comments I have not requested it and I'm on app now. July 8th sounds good. I'm behind on other reads and have family in so I won't be reading much this week


message 5583: by Soo (new)

Soo (silverlyn) | 6898 comments I'll request it for July 8th. =)


message 5584: by Soo (new)

Soo (silverlyn) | 6898 comments Ok. Request in. If it doesn't show by then, I'll put in a reminder note. lol

I'm so excited to read it! I've just started The Turn because apparently it's referenced a lot in the new book.


message 5586: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth (fantasynerd365) | 1229 comments ooh The Turn was really good.


message 5587: by Soo (new)

Soo (silverlyn) | 6898 comments Yeah? Well shoot. I haven't read the Turn yet either. Gotta read it too! =D


message 5588: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth (fantasynerd365) | 1229 comments Enjoy, I read it late last year.


message 5589: by Beena (new)

Beena (beenz) | 2198 comments Last call for The Way of Kings starting this week in the 2020 Cosmere Book Club, anyone who wants to still has time to get a copy and join us by next week. :)


message 5590: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth (fantasynerd365) | 1229 comments I'll probably join when you guys do book 2.

Sounds good!


message 5592: by Charlie (new)

Charlie (charlieridley) | 5750 comments Siobhan and I are going to read 84K by Claire North on the 5th July if anyone would like to join in. A thread has been requested.

A few years ago I decided to read all of Claire North's book in publication order. I'm starting The Sudden Appearance of Hope after I've finished Crooked Kingdom. It's been a while since I finished Touch so I'm well overdue to read Hope. I really like the sound of 84K but I have read Sudden Appearance of Hope and The End of the Day first. I'll be interested to see what you rate 84K once you've finished it.

Have either of you read any other Claire North books or is this your first?

This will be my first! I've owned The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August for years though so need to read that sometime.


message 5595: by Hailee (new)

Hailee | 2762 comments I've read Harry August and Touch. I recommended them both but I think out of the two Touch was my favourite.

Silvana (silvaubrey) | 1970 comments Second book of Age of Madness by Joe Abercrombie: The Trouble with Peace is out Sept 15. BR anyone?


message 5597: by Mel (new)

Mel | 2360 comments I have 84K on my tbr, but I think I'll have to defer it to another time when I can better handle the bleak dystopia. I've read Harry August, and thought it was well-written and impactful, but also intense. I'm a flufflepuffy sort of reader and it tested the boundaries of my squeamishness. Good luck with it, though!

Sweet. Gonna ask for a thread now.

Arunimaa | 3 comments I am going to read TRUEL1F3 TRUEL1F3 (Lifelike, #3) by Jay Kristoff by Jay Kristoff on 8th July. Anyone interested can join me!
