Shaitarn I've been meaning to re read Song by Kay for a while now. Let me know when you pick a date. I'm fine to wait for October.

I'm already down from 27 to 19 on this so I may actually make the June 19th date. I'll setup a folder for the series. The second book is already out and third due in December.

one month to read it?I am not in a rush
When doing a series we schedule a book a month most of the time. You can read it as fast or slow as you like. Just put comments in spoilers for the people keeping a slower pace.

Oh, ok. I was just checking to know. Given the size it'll take me about a week, I think. It would be my first Buddy Read too!

Always up for a good discussion !
About to start book 2 when Twila works out a date !
I really loved book 1
Hi! I'm Krystle and I just joined. Anyone want to read The Lives of Tao with me?
I have the whole trilogy so I would be open to reading all three of them if someone wants to.
I'm available anytime this month or next month so I can work around someone's schedule and I'm in no rush.
I've already started the first book, but I'm only a few chapters in and I will wait for any potential buddy readers. :)
I'm overbooked but enjoy. It is different than my normal reads so I'll check it out in the future.

Hahaha omg I'm so dyslexic. I read what Luna wrote while I was busy and obviously missed what book she was actually talking about. I've got Sanderson on the brain. It sounds like we need to also set up a way of kings thread as well lol.

Hahahaha, ohhhh, she was talking about Kings of the Wyld. I wasn't sure where the WoK comment was coming from, but I was still totally down up for it.
Hahaha well that was very interesting anyway are you guys doing the stormlight archive on July because I would love to join since I've had those books sitting there for a long time waiting to be read
Laura and I have started a buddy read of The Book of Atrix Wolfe The Book of Atrix Wolfe It will be the second time I'm reading it. Its very short and charming. It is full of Patricia McKillip's lush writing which is sometimes like poetry. Please message me if you want to join us.Joanne
