I'd be up for doing both! Since Diane is asking for the middle of July, when would you like to do the Musketeers?

Diane--how does the 17th sound?


message 105: by Eunice (new)

Eunice | 666 comments I'm ok with any date. What would you prefer?


message 106: by Alanna (new)

Alanna | 7 comments How does Tuesday sound, or would further out be better?


message 107: by Eunice (new)

Eunice | 666 comments I'm fine with that.


message 108: by Diane (new)

Diane Shea (diane_shea) | 1 comments The 17th sounds perfect!


message 109: by Alanna (new)

Alanna | 7 comments Awesome!

Mods, could we get a thread for The Three Musketeers starting Tuesday (or whenever you can get it up) and another for IQ84 starting 17 July?

I will try to join you in your read of 1Q84. I just put it on hold at my library, so hopefully I will be able to check it out in time to participate. :-)

Jen (reader44ever) | 2930 comments Would anyone like to buddy read Book Two in The Dark Tower series with me? It's The Drawing of the Three. I just put it on hold at my library, so I hope to get it maybe next week and could read it around, say, July 10 (I hope).

Please?
The Dark Tower II The Drawing of the Three by Stephen King

I finished what I was working on earlier than I expected (seems to be a reading theme for me this year), so we can start whenever you wish.

Danisha | 16 comments Hi Everyone,

Becoming Human (Exilon 5, #1) by Eliza Green

Been here a for about a week or so now and I wanted to give Buddy Reads a try. I've had this book laying around on my currently reading shelf since last year. The book seemed interesting from the few pages I read its just I'm not really an e-book reader. I love the feel of a book in my hands but I've been getting a lot of free e-books lately so gonna have to get used to the feel of my iPad.

This book can be downloaded for free from:

https://www.smashwords.com/books/view...

https://www.bookbub.com/books/becomin...

Also once you have downloaded the book on page 2 there will be a link where you can get the two prequels to this book for free ebooks as well. All you have to do is follow the link and sign up for Eliza Green's newsletter. I've received the first prequel via e-mail, just waiting for the second one. Each prequel is about 55-66 pages depending on which platform you use.

Echoes of Earth (Exilon 5, #0.5) by Eliza Green New Origin (Exilon 5, #0.6) by Eliza Green

*Anyone who feels like joining in on Becoming Human (Exilon 5, #1) by Eliza Green does not have to read the prequels. I'm also up for anyone whos interested in leading the group as well since it is my first time.

I am available to start this anytime no rush I know a lot of reading is going on :D

I'd be interested in doing an informal buddy read with you. The book is available for free on Amazon kindle, so I bought it already. How does mid to late August work for you?
