message 2901: by Jenna, I'd be free if not for Temper & Edgewalker (new)

Jenna Kathleen (jennakathleen) | 5178 comments Mod
I'm interested in both as well. I'll wait for Aristea to ask about her prefered time for The Poppy War, but is sometime in the fall good for you to do A Man of Shadows, Laura? Say October? I'm really good with anything.

Laura Tenfingers | 1132 comments Sure, October 1st for A man of shadows works for me.

Katie K | 2600 comments Hey everyone. I'm kinda new to this discussion, so let me know if I'm doing the buddy read thing correct, okay? :) Is anyone up for reading The Wise Man's Fear? (book 2 in the kingkiller chronicles by Patrick Rothfuss). It's been sitting on my bookshelf for a while now just begging to be read. Let me know if anyone is interested to discuss the misadventures of Kvothe :D

I'm considering a few different 3 book series to do Oct, Nov and Dec the 15th.

The Macht The Ten Thousand - Paul Kearney

Steelhaven Herald of the Storm - Richard Ford

Inheritance Trilogy The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms - N.K. Jemisin

I'd simply go with the one that draws the most interest.

I just read the Lunar chronicles by her, and I think I'm done with her writing for the foreseeable future.

That works for me for The Poppy War.
