Oh whoops, i thought we were starting at the start of the month! I'd better stop reading then and return my book to the library!
We can start as early as the next week if it is O'K with you ... So shall I adjust it and shoot for the 7th/8th or the 15/16th?

Three-month read ... :-) We can speed up if we want to. Here is the schedule
As a consensus for the ones who want to start earlier and for the ones who want to start later this month, I am going to offer the golden mean of January 16.
01/16 - Chapters 1-3
01/23 - Chapters 4-6, South Africa
01/30 - Chapters 7, 8
02/06 - Chapters 9-12
02/13 - Ghost Special, Chapters 13,14
02/20 - Chapters 15-18
02/27 - Chapters 19-23
03/06 - Chapter 23, The Balloonist
03/13 - Chapters 24-27
03/20- Chapters 28-32
03/27 - Chapters 33-35 American Detective
04/03 - Chapters 36-43
04/10- Chapters 44- The End
Cheers to good discussions and an immersive read!
Just got the book from the library today (had to ask the library to nudge the person who had it overdue to return it; our library doesn't use fines so people tend to be casual about returning books, so it pays if somebody has a book you want that's overdue to get the library to nudge them, which they're happy to do and sometimes works) but don't know whether that person will put it on hold to get it back so I might only have it for three weeks. And it'sa BIG book, and I'm already several weeks behind in the discussion despite the original plan of starting on January 28th. But I'll try to catch up.
I haven't started it either which is bad because I now have a copy. I'll make sure to read at least the first 3 chapters tonight.
Everyman and Nicola, post any time. I will try to respond. The book is very engaging, and I have hard time pacing myself.
Just started reading the book so I'm a bit behind. I'm hoping to be able to read quite a bit of it this weekend. I'll post as I go, but will most likely be behind everyone.
Just got the message that the book is (finally!) available from my library. I'll aim to pick it up tomorrow, but I likely won't be able to REALLY catch up until next weekend due to other reading commitments. I'll post in the existing threads as I go.
