Let's go with the 15th. :) I can set it up.

We're still on the first book of The Wars of Light and Shadow by Janny Wurts, so if anyone wants to join in, now's the time! It's a fantastic, 11 book epic high fantasy series with loads of depth and amazing prose.You can find us here:

15th is good for me too. :)
@Gabi Great just let me know what dates you request the threads for and I'll put them in my tracker!

Hey Charlie or anyone else for that matter, I'm starting Harry Potter today if you want in, probably gonna binge them. -Might not be able to do all 7 in 2 weeks before my next BR, so I'll see how it goes...I'm in desperate need of a good comfort read right now, just lockdown and the weather and life being just work and home.... ughhh, I've had enough! I need to escape into a good book and Malice wasn't doing it for me unfortunately...

There's not a post with a list but you can click on the bookshelf here and sort by start date to see what's happening this month :) https://www.goodreads.com/group/books...
@Beena I'm reading a few different things at the moment so I wouldn't be able to start today I'm afraid but I hope you love your re-read :D
Cool JJ! I've made a Book Club thread for it; seemed to make the most sense, people are always re-reading HPhttps://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Yeah, no worries Charlie! Thanks! :)
Hi, I'm planning on reading The Broken Empire trilogy by Mark Lawrence, starting with book 1 in about a week or so (latest on March 8th) since a friend of mine keeps bugging me about it. :) Would anyone be interested in joining me?
Hey! Just checking back in if you guys were ready for the Watership Down BR. Or are your book piles still pretty stacked XD

It's been a few years since I've read it and would love to do a re-read.
@Jessica ~ Sounds good Jessica! I know Chris and Barry were interested a month or so back. And seeing as I have the library book now...just re-checking to see if we have any time. Otherwise we can schedule for later in the year too :D

The pile has gotten worse, but I could use a standalone break from it all. I fell so short on early year goals that there isn't a lot of rush on any of them anymore lol...
I have this on audio and it could be a good change of pace for me. So I'll be ready soon. Maybe a week from now? 3/15
Chris wrote: "I have this on audio and it could be a good change of pace for me. So I'll be ready soon. Maybe a week from now? 3/15..."Oh gosh. Well best of luck with your pile!!
Yeah, let's schedule Watership Down for 3/15. Hopefully that will help you with your lengthy reads. :D I'll make a request~
Anyone interested in reading any of these, probably not in March but somewhere between April and July, they've caught my mood.The Rage of Dragons by Evan Winter
The Gilded Ones by Namina Forna
Son of the Storm by Suyi Davies Okungbowa -this will be a new release on the 11th May 2021
I know I talked to Mayim a little while ago about reading The Witness for the Dead when it comes out in June. Anyone else want to join in, maybe set the start date a few days after release? I also want to reread book one before reading book 2. The Goblin Emperor
Cool guys :)Charlie, is April good for you? Maybe somewhere near the beginning?
Jason, does sometime in May work for you?
@Beena I've got the 3rd poopy war scheduled for 25th April, so Mid May would be good for Rage od Dragons maybe start 10th May.

@Beena how about 5th April?
10th May sounds good Jason. Glad you're joining too Jitesh.5th April works for me Charlie.
I'll put the thread requests in, thanks guys.
Hey all! I'm back again after some reading to get things planned out for Kings of the Wyld. Would anyone be interested in reading this in April? Gaea and Meera I know you were interested a while back~
Would anyone be interested in reading The Slow Regard of Silent Things? I don't really have a starting date/month in mind, so I'm open to suggestions if people have a preference :)

@Marit ~ That is such a good book! I've re-read it a bit recently, so I'm not looking to read it again anytime soon. But I hope you find someone~@Chris ~ Oh! Thanks Chris! I'll keep you posted for the second~
@Katie - Thanks! Hope I can enjoy it just as much@Alan - Hopefully if it's painful for me it'll be in a "good" way, fingers crossed :-)

Yay!! I’m glad you saw the message Meera. What date works for you in April? So far I have Skyward planned for the 27th. So would it be okay to start earlier in the month for our book?
