Okay...Which titles do you have in mind?
Joining a man called ove. I just downloaded the audiobook a few days ago. I'll probably be starting a little late, because I have another audiobook read starting on may 5th, but I'll make it in time :)Azrah wrote: "Anyone up for Chaos Walking trilogy (The Knife of Never Letting Go), one per month to start from January 18th?"
I could squeeze this in! One of my favourite series and I'm long overdue for a reread :)
I'll probably be a bit late with starting the book in march, since i have a tome BR starting on the 15th.
Is anyone up for an impromptu Ruin and Rising read? Late January or early February. I was supposed to read this last year, but had to drop out of the BR...

Oh, these are definately a to read for me! I've read the last 2, but a re - read is no problem. The first one I have at home, but haven't read it yet. The other 3 I don't have, but need to read.
Okay then we can start with IT and then move on to Caarie and Pet Sematary? By then if you get hold Shining and Stand then good otherwise we will stop after three books. What say?

Em Lost In Books wrote: "Okay then we can start with IT and then move on to Caarie and Pet Sematary? By then if you get hold Shining and Stand then good otherwise we will stop after three books.

Great :) you can pick the date, i always read multiple books at a time anyway!
Hi, I would love to buddy read some more Robin Hobb books. The next book on my list is Ship of Destiny but if anyone is a little further along I would be happy to catch up and read one of the later books :)
Hailee wrote: "Does anyone want to buddy read The Legion of Flame with a start date between now until mid March?"I'll be up for that - really enjoyed the first one and haven't gotten around to picking the series back up. I'm cool to start anytime really, with a preference for the middle of next month.

Great!! Does a start date of 12th February work for you?
Seán wrote: "Sounds good to me!"Ok. I'll ask for a thread 👍🏻

I could read "A Clash of Kings" with you in March :)
There's some talk of Young Elites over on the YA thread. :) There's two books lined up already, but that might be third in line!

Ok, I'll request the thread.
The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making Anyone interested in doing this short read starting this weekend?
@Em Lost in Books and Shaitairn: when do you want to start with 'It'?
I am starting 11/22 with few friends in other group, so won't be able to read two SK tomes simultaneously. Can we start It from Feb 1?
That's fine. I'll ask for a thread :)
Scott wrote: "The Goblin Emperor Anybody up for this starting Friday?"Thats a great book. I'd love to reread but do you have to read it this friday?
Can I join the buddy read for IT? We are talking about the Stephen King novel, correct?

Nelda Rae wrote: "Can I join the buddy read for IT? We are talking about the Stephen King novel, correct?"Yes and off course you can join :)
Is someone interested in reading The Ice Princess with me ? It's going to be my lunch read so I will be reading it slowly (as always with me anyway ;p)

Circe wrote: "anyone is up to read series? one book per month, those books are way too long"I could join you for the first book if you were starting in March. . .

That's great. I am comfortable with any day after 5th May so you can decide the date. :)

6th May is great for me! We can start with the A Man Called Ove on 6th May. If by any chance I forget, just drop a message (please). But most probably I will remember. :) then 6th May is final right?
