I'm thinking yes. I'm bogged down in critically acclaimed horseshit and ready to read something for pleasure.

I highly recommend the Institute as a pleasure read. I took it with me on vacation, and it was perfect!

When you thinking for A Deadly Education? :)

Chris  Haught (haughtc) | 2348 comments Thanks, Siobhan...looking forward to it..

Good to hear, Sterling. I've been a King fan for many many years, just haven't read anything recently....Should be just what I need to get my reading groove back going.

Mel | 2360 comments Re: A Deadly Education
I was hoping to start it soon - next week if others are ready?

I was expecting a longer wait from my library, but they stocked up on copies and it's "available soon."

Ahh cool. I'm pretty fully booked for the start of this month, so I won't commit. But if you and Priya want to start I'll jump in if I get a chance :)


message 5764: by Mel (new)

Mel | 2360 comments Siobhan, that cool. I often have those tentative BRs, that just depend on if things open up.

Priya, would you be alright starting soon? Perhaps the 10th?

Yes, I'm alright with the 10th or any other date you guys decided on. The book is just waiting on my shelf to be picked up. :)

I saw you already have GotM starting on the 10th, so I staggered it back a bit to the 15th, to hopefully give you and the mods some breathing room.

Is anyone interested to read The Part About the Dragon Was (Mostly) True? To be published 15 Dec. it’s currently on sale for $1.99.

I would but I just finished it and am starting another buddy read. I will say it was wonderful for me but it’s not for everyone. I do hope you like it 😊

If you want to start right away, you can still hop on the buddy read that started on the first of the month.

I would love to!! I've been wanting to for a long time. Though pardon me I'm a slow reader. Also, I've read the first two books, but wish to read them again anyway.

Saar The Book owl | 3096 comments No problem, I'm a slow reader too ;) Which date would fit for you in January?
