Hi Marit! Sure you can, we haven't decided when to start it yet

Lord of the Isles series by David Drake
The Banished and the Banned series by James Clemens, starting with Wit'ch Fire
and a couple of books by Stephen King: The Shining and 'Salem's Lot.
Would anyone be interested?

I would like to buddy read The Shining :) Starting in February (or later) would be my preference since I have exams in January.

Great! February or later is fine with me, Marit. Do you have any preferred date - say, later in the month?


So shall we set a date for Feb 10th? Harshi, does that work for you?

Ahh I'm not sure. I've got really important finals coming up, but the dates haven't been announced yet. They could be in Feb, could be in March... They're supposed to be announced this week
So can we please wait till then to set a date?
I'm sorry for this guys😔

I'm about to start the Age of myth. So buddy perhaps I would be at half or done with the book before or on 15 December. So If I were done with the book, then I would love to join you for the Age of Sword.

Yeah, no problem.

Sounds great. Myth is actually a reread for me. In fact the first three are rereads. Just getting refreshed before continuing..






Hey, Sok; I have audiobooks of both so I could do either (or both!).



Hii! I'd like to join you for murder on the orient express

Great! Let's read "Muder on the Orient Express" then, since it's the one I'm most excited to get to, as well.
I've only participated in a couple BRs in the group and I'm not sure about the procedure. Should I create a thread in "Stand alone BRs"?
edit: just found the google form for requesting BRs

Also, when are we gonna start?"
No, I haven't yet, I thought of waiting a couple days in case anyone else that wants to join prefers a different date. Do you guys have a preference? A couple weeks from now would be fine for me, that's why I suggested December 20th but I don't mind moving it a bit earlier or later in the month.

Alright then! I'm filling out the form for December 20th.

The Final Empire
Everyone is welcome to join 😁. We're a very relaxed group, who don't always read at the same pace. So there is no pressure on that front, just be sure to use spoiler tags on posts talking about specific story elements.

Very interested in the Shining znd Salem's Lot. I've read Salem's Lot years ago!

We'll be sorting out a date for The Shining once Harshi has her exam dates. Is februaury okay for you?


A Vow So Bold and Deadly in January
Wild Sign in March
Fugitive Telemetry in April

I'm guessing those are around release dates?

Yes they are around release dates.

I'll set them up for about a week after they are released, and if we read them sooner then that will be ok.

That's good for me :)

I requested for February 23rd.

I'm in on that Melissa!

Then I'll pop in here to see what people are looking to read and check the scheduled BR's each month to see which ones I may want to join.
Anyway, I've put together a list of potential books/series I want to read.
